How do i post pics?

[twinturbo]

you can attatch some ( although the size is limited ) or if you have them on something like photo bucket you can link to them ( look for the icon of a mountain and a sun and then past the image URL in the box.

Morning Chunky Mick,

Another local builder.....:eek:

I've already posted this morning but we have a few local builders coming down to the unit tomorrow morning to meet up if you would like to meet any local builders. You're quite welcome tomorrow or anytime if you're passing - might even get a blast out if its not too icy.

Regards....>AndyH

All the best andy! Thanks i might pop down your unit tommorow mate ive been on the locost builders site all last year only found out about this site yesterday. Im nearly there with the car the bonnet nose cone and mudguards you sold me have turned out spot on mate. The cars looking great it goes like stink, I ended up putting a k8 gsxr 1000 lump in it and also painted it the same orange as your demo!

Hello Mick,

I didn't realise it was you earlier, just looked at your pics you have e-mailed me and the build is looking superb. From what i can see on the pics the car is one of the best builds i've seen. Can't wait to see it in the flesh, let me know if you want a second opinion prior to your IVA test. I've been told there is now a new tester at Sandy Lane who is a lot more easy going than the previous one so looks like you should be about ready to fork out the fees.

Cheers.....AndyH

Welcome to the forum Mick

[spud69]

Had a conversation with another North East builder, Jimmy, today from South Shields. He has his chassis built and was not aware of the forum or all the other local builders. Must definitely be something in the air.....;)

Thanks for the pics Mick.
