Viper's Rex, Mess, and Pictures

Hey Guys

I finally got my hands on my friend's Digicam, so here are a few pics of my baby, and the mess that I left in the engine compartment last year when I didn't know enough about cars, but thought I could take the carb out for rebuilding anyway :P hehe...

I'll start with a pic of my car :



And a pic of the interior, which is in *awesome* shape. Isn't it lovely?



Now for the mess of where I have to put my carb once I rebuild or get a new one. Notice how (like a newb) I forgot to label the vacuum tubes... Oh well, over the winter I've read the manual twice from cover to cover, and spent many hours on this forum... I know better now.



I really like the Mags it came with (yes, obviously they're stock, but I like them), they're a bit dirty right now, but I took a pic anyway:



Read my sig for the details on the car. I'm SO glad to get the tarp off her. Next weekend I'm rebuilding the carb with an apprentice friend of mine. Only a matter of time. I hope to have her on the road this summer. Sorry for the picture novel!!

Jon

Try renaming the pictures with a .txt instead of a .jpg; like "MagClose.txt" instead of "MagClose.jpg" and linking them like an image. I know that used to work, haven't messed with Geoshitties in a while.

What size tires are you using? They make the wheels look larger than 13s.
