Pictures if you are stealing them have to be hosted somewhere. Those were the directions for stealing. To upload your own you need to Go Advanced then Manage Attachments. Point to wherever you have the file saved. Watch the file types and the size.

That studie sounds cool!! A lot of these got restmodded right off the bat, since I’m a hotrodder at heart I love to see this build come alive. In a world of chopped down roofs, a classic with a tall roof and great conversion on it will be awesome!!
