mrwrstory Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 It's beem about 6 years since I've participated with this good group. Lost my way via a mad affair with an irresistable infatuation. She was not what many would call pretty but lust ruled over reason. I am however, the richer for the experience. I'm back on track now,...sort of. Took me forever to pick up the thread of this forum since time, a tendency toward dimensia, and a new computer got in the way of connecting via my original identity. Now accepted, I am challenged to gracefully manuver about this site. But, I will get it. The "sort of" part of my comment is because I have added another project to distract from what objectivity I may still have. I'll never learn. A '40 Plymouth 2 door is also now in the garage. It's a solid barn find, from New Mexico, that acts as the distraction which I must resist in order to get the P-15 running. I'm seeing some familiar names which I look forward to chatting with. Profile information and pictures are in the works. And I will be placing some stuff in the classified listings shortly. Happy New Year to all! Quote
Niel Hoback Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Welcome back, Mr. Bill. It sounds like you have some worthy distractions. Pictures will help us keep you focused. Quote

littlemo Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 I'm new to the Forum since you left, but welcome back anyway; good luck with your p-15 and the 40. Looking forward to following your new thread. Cass, alias Littlemo... Quote
P-12 Tommy Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Welcome! You can send the "distraction" my way anytime. Tom Quote

james curl Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 If I remember right you were installing a different front suspension on your P-15 where you cut out the spring pockets and finished the outside of the frame flat? That was a very interesting project, I would like to see how it looks finished. Quote
Dennis Hemingway Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Welcome Back, I have seen photos of your roadster in some event coverage so I knew you were still around. Dennis:cool: Quote
tinlizzy Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Welcome, I too have come on this site since you were here. I know where ya been. Been there and done that a couple of times myself. On course now for early retirement with a good down home girl who loves old cars. Lee Quote
Don Coatney Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Welcome back Bill. I thought you drove your roadster off the face of the earth. 1 Quote

Dennis Hemingway Posted January 12, 2011 Report Posted January 12, 2011 Bill, Congrats on your Best Ford in a Ford trophy at the Goodguys West Coast Nationals with your 56 Ford Wagon. There is a story on it in the March 2011 Street Rodder on page 56 & 57. Dennis:cool: Quote

This is how the car sits today,....Jan. 2011. I'm planning to focus on it with a vengence beginning in Feb. starting at the rear. At this point I have modified the spare wheelwell and installed a gas tank against the rear seatback. First order of business is securing the tank and fabricating a steel bulkhead to isolate the trunk& tank. Quote

Well,...that didn't get it either!: I've searched the FAQ and tried the best I know how to follow those directions. What's a BB code? That's what I thought I copied, and pasted, from the bottom of the full size image in my album. I'd like to share this renewed build project with ya'll but it's becoming very frustrating. ANY TIPS?

If your photo is located on amother website such as Photobucket you need to copy the code as follows. start with End result should look something like this with no spaces Quote

aero3113 Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 Welcome back! Since you already have your photos on photobucket, all you have to do is copy and paste the "IMG Code" for the picture you want to post. Just make sure when you copy the IMG Code you copy all of the code. Quote
Don Coatney Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 How'd you do that? I followed the link you posted by clicking on it. Once at your photobucket album I copied the "IMG code" box below the picture and pasted that information in the body of my response. Quote
