Hi greyone, all you guys are an inspiration! I have no mechanical ability at all, but love beautiful cars and the mx250 certainly fits the bill. Thankfully Chris has taken on board the task of getting my dream car on the road, looking forward to seeing all your cars at Stoneleigh

Grayone - Not sure quite what is going on with your pictures.
But multiple photos should look like this in the text box you post messages to...

[IMG]'http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b590/gray53/PICT0808_zpsc84bfe95.jpg'[/IMG]

Note:
I've put a [COLOR="Red"]'[/COLOR] after the first [IMG] and before the last [/img] just so the code is visible in this post.

Once the commas are removed, the photo should appear like this...



Hope that makes sense / helps, Paul. :)

Grayone - By quoting your post I can see some doubling up of "http://" in some of the photo links.
Again I'm added a [COLOR="Red"]'[/COLOR] just so you can see what I mean...

[IMG]'http://http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b590/gray53/PICT0802_zpsc45b6882.jpg'[/IMG]

This gives you the blue "?".

Removing that should give you the missing photos from your post, like so...



















Cheers, Paul. :)

Obviously I am not typing fast enough! :icon_wink:

Hopefully the photos above are the same as your last batch of "?".

Cheers, Paul. :)

PS
Forgot to say, you car is looking very good. :cool:

Wow how quickly it was done, amazing!:eusa_dance:
This gives me courage to be there in stoneleigh. With my own MX250!
My congratulations:whoo:

Fabulous!! Great result Grahame. You were only a week over your build schedule, weren't you? Will you be driving it tomorrow? Would be good to take a drive down to our workshop later this week to pick up your headlight covers :tea:
