Thanks.

You gotta upload them to a host site.  There are many websites that will host your pics.  I have my own website www.delbridge.net therefore upload them to my website and have pics with the address like www.delbridge.net/79truck.jpg which looks like this
.  
Then when posting a reply, click on the html button and then click image and enter the address of the pic.

Sorry this fleetside doesn't fit the thread.

I use photobucket.com to load up my pictures.After you get your pics there,you highlight the URL address (the whole thing) then right clip and hit copy.Go to the reply box on this thread, left click IMAGE and then right click on the address bar that opens.Hit paste and then hit OK.

As Del said make sure you  format HTML

Hey Del a nice pic makes any thread look good.

Post by: 80stepsideguy on January 09, 2009, 08:01:17 pm
I hope so man,
the few things i wanna make look cool on this truck is the fuel cell a 16 gallon aluminum under the cedar wood bed.,the subaru wrx blue, i`m using 1991 camaro side mirrors,I`m using beretta GTZ seats and use black leather w/ a suede insert.Definately gonna go w/ 20s on it and go all custom on the interior.I know 2009 will be a tough year for all of us here but i`m gonna possibly get the body done and the engine built next year.I`m also debating on building a 1 off custom dash and make a console mold into it. I am trying to make a show truck/weekend cruiser and try n get a spot in truckin magazine but we will see.

thanks

Nice looking truck! I like the gold color, is that the color your gonna stick with?
Title: Re: Post Your Step Side's!
Post by: morrow07 on February 14, 2009, 10:29:58 am
Well, I got the truck painted back in high school about 11 years ago. I wanted to stick with the original copper color (can't remember the name), but the crook that painted it said it was impossible to get that color matched. Being 17, I took his word for it and chose from about 20 other colors. This is California Sport Gold. It kind of grew on me, but I still want to go back to the original color, or possibly flat black. He really half did the paint job, and I'm still pissed of about it. Live and learn right ;D
Title: Re: Post Your Step Side's!
Post by: 75stepside454 on February 14, 2009, 04:47:50 pm

Title: Re: Post Your Step Side's!
Post by: morrow07 on February 14, 2009, 05:04:36 pm
Does anybody happen to know what the name of that factory copper color is? Ultimately, that's the color I would like it to be. I actually have developed a soft spot for the color of my paint job.
Title: Re: Post Your Step Side's!
Post by: 80stepsideguy on February 14, 2009, 05:05:59 pm

Title: Re: Post Your Step Side's!
Post by: morrow07 on February 15, 2009, 12:05:00 pm
R2D2 must be the other color code I was searching for LOL

Yeah, its a 52 convertible. My mother in laws 50th B-day present. She parks it down here, and leaves the keys  ;D My father in law bought it in pieces in 2000, and got it rebuilt and ready to go by her 50th. The 67 Vette got relocated to Lake Tahoe to make room for the 52. I miss the Vette. I'll post some pics of the 52 later when it stops raining.

Russet Metallic is about as close to copper as you can get in the factory color.  2926 is the paint code.
