4th effie,

You got something to start with there. :thup:

Looks like all surface rust on the body?

Yes body isn't bad, couple of spots on frame with large flaky rust. Floorboards altogether different story. drivers side is about 45% toast... hoping i can save enough to just patch it. passenger side is not great but not near as holy as other. bed is surprisingly nice shape considering it had 3 inches of composted leaves, many beer cans, chunk of aluminum and about 10 lengths of re-bar covering it. Oh and a set of heads and an intake for some big ford engine. they aren't too pretty but ima clean em up then see if anyone wants them.

4th effie... as far as resizing your images: try these steps:

Right-click on your jpg file in windoze, and select Edit from the pop-up menu (will open MS Paint, which comes with windoze)

Go to the Image menu, Select Stretch/Skew

Key in something like 25% for horizontal and vertical, hit OK

Save it (make sure to save as a different name if you want to keep your original hi-res file intact).

Hope that works for you.
