    We are a father/son team, new to the Maverick crowd and looking forward to getting a little advice on our project, a '70 that we are converting into a "sleeper" for a little fun on the street. We picked up the car off eBay last year and are currently putting the finishing touches on a 302 to go in it.

    It has been a lot of fun so far and it is still in pieces!

    Welcome aboard Tim and Scott...sounds like a great project.
    To post pictures you simply scroll down towards the bottom of the screen when you're posting or replying and look for the button that says "manage attachments". After clicking that button you should get a "browse" button to click. That should take you to your computer, locate the pic on your computer, wherever you have it stored, click on it, and you will be able to upload it to the message. I don't know if you are familiar with file sizes or not but if you are it's probably best to try to keep it under about 125kb. Looking forward to seeing your project.

    Go down to the quick reply section of this post. Click Go advanced, Click Manage Attachments, Browse to the image and upload.

    If you have problems use the search button (upper right) about resizing and posting pictures.

    :Welcome: to the board. You say "was Father & Son Team". Did you dis-ban? Not a Father Son Team anymore? Looks like a great project. Keep us posted...
