Test Message... Posting Pictures

I am trying to add an image to this thread. I have had problems here and I want to see if I understand how it works now.

It works. The difference is on this forum, you use "[imglink]" as opposed to "" in other forums.

Anyway, that is my truck that I had in Germany in 1970. My intention is to eventually get my truck looking like this.

Here is the truck I had in 1969 in Oklahoma and Utah:

This is what I am working with. I got the correct winch from a member here but have not had time to install it yet. The truck is in my garage in Florida and I am still living in MD, trying to get to Florida before another winter!

Now that I have the image thing sorted out, I hope to become more active and offer what little stuff I know here as well.

BTW, that winch is from a 2.5 ton and it has been removed! Unfortunately, the Farm Bureau went crazy with a welder on the front frame rails. Whizz whee works good if you can get to the welds.

Please attach images to the site instead of remotely hosting. That's why the img tag is "broken".

OK... No more pictures...

Sorry, I feel the same way too and I'm the admin. The reason for it is to retain the images forever. People link offsite all the time, just dig back a year or so and you'll start finding links that no longer work. People also sometimes delete remote hosted images. That's the reason for why things are setup like they are.

Thanks. No complaints from this end, I don't want to cause problems and thanks for the explanation. I understand!

Thats a good looking truck to start with. Keep us updated on the progress. (no matter how long it takes)

Truck is looking good Don, especially with the hard top gone (you did originally have the hard top, right?)

Thanks and yes, it did have a hard top that was somewhat caved in from people jumping on it. It pained me to have it sit outdoors for 6 months. Now, it is in the garage in Florida waiting for me to stop messing about and get moved. I am "full steam ahead" on getting to FL...

Where is the truck in Florida?

Where is the truck in Florida?

The address is Fernandina Beach but is actually closer to Yulee. It is in Nassau County, far Northeastern part of Florida not far from Amelia Island. I live off of the island where the house prices are more reasonable. But soon, this truck will be riding up and down Fletcher Ave, the beach road...

Come see us in Richloam next time get together. Sweet truck.
