Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

But, I have been distracted also.....
New brakes, wheels and tires, narrowed front end and lowwwerrr.





Now I just need to figure out how to get these small enough to change my avatar but big enough to see.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

Well, I was trying to reduce the size of some very big pic I took after it was first finished and the image was almost too small to tell what it was but the file size was still too large for an avatar on my VW forum. So I guess have to reduce the quality of the picture and then reduce the size. I'm just not sure how to do that.
These pics were actually taken with my old crapy cell phone :O
I was very suprized they turned out as good as they did. I guess the overcast day was just the perfect lighting for it.

Oh btw, part of the upgrades also included finally getting my reverse light hooked up, after being on the car not working for 12 years, and adding LED tail lights.

Re: 67 cheby's Dropmember build thread

There's a thread on here about VWs owned by members.
You should post a pic and say hi.

Do a search for posts by me and you can find it. It's kind of old but you can wake it up.

Now, back to this thread and waiting for updates...
