Post by: rovohn on 2018-05-06 18:24
Got my car on Sept 17 last year,since then its had a body off resto,engine and trans replacement,new brakes and lines,fuel tank and lines,all new rubber seals,radiator,the list goes on.

If your using windows photo gallery it's easy. Click on the photo, select edit, click on properties, then choose the middle option, which is resize. It should give you four size options.

Good luck!

Saw it at the Hallmark Ford show and last week at George Preston arena Mustang meet. I thumbed through your photo album and see you've done a lot of work to it. Looks good.

That's one great looking mor-door. I love the clean look including the wheel/tire combo.
Man, I'd sure love to do that show with you guys. Been to Vancouver twice on vacations...even gave some thought to moving there, but on the wrong side of the border. (not a put down, I am french Canadian) Love the area. Regret not visiting Victoria on either trip.

You sure don't want to come here now, we've been under a cover of smoke from out of control forest fires across the province. The air quality from 1-10 with 10 being the worst is 10+.
As far as moving here it has become insanely expensive for real estate. A typical 3 bed 50 year old bungalow would run about 1.2-1.4 million in the lower mainland.

I'll try and make it, I have some of trans apart right now but could be together by this week. It's a great show, much better than the Mustang meet last week and I own a Mustang!
