OPen them in a photoediting software like MS Photo Editor, Photoshop or Kodak Photo Editor and cut them down to 2.5 inches wide so they fit in the wineow better. Cool Pix though!! Mudrat
Mudrat Good looking truck there Staylor - I'm impressed that you have 4 (or 5) point harnesses in a DD, but where do you put the groceries??? :-| :roll: Looks good, how's it run? Mudrat
staylor It runs like a scalded dog :!: for whats around here. Just under 5 seconds in 300 feet of NC mud. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: It dominated the class (36" & under tires) this year- 9 wins out of the first 11 runs. Then my son in law replaced his tired BBC with a true racing motor. We figure he has me out powered now by approx 200 HP. Still it's yet to be beat by a smallblock & I can stiil give him a good race. Not bad for an old jeep motor =D> =D> I've never rolled but come close a time or two & the harness would come in handy if that ever happened.
ComChewy Hey Guy's, This is Com I'm new to this section of the forum, I guess one could say that one must be a Mud Head to live and wheel in Florida and the sub tropics to the rain forest and mountains of Costa Rica. For those of you that have never seen any of posting of Lil-Shiite in the XJ section of the forum you will get a good idea of what it's like to go for a Sunday drive with myself and the rest of the Mud Dawg's. We have mud but most of it has water on top of it, some of the fording that Lil & I have made are hood deep and deeper....... :shock: :!: 111!!! :? :oops: #-o :-| I realize that you will see red X's now, I will have this corrected soon...... Later Mark...... ---> #-o <---
Mudrat Hiya MARK!!!! Good to hear from ya (and no red X's!!) - but I think Staylors rig will beat Lil Shiite :? But he doesn't have a 7 slot grill :lo1l: Looks like 6 in the pic 111!!!
