Sorry for some of the incomplete shots. I was overwhelmed by all the cars and was shooting roll after roll of 35mm with a new camera!

Those were some different times for sure. FYI, if you right click on the picture and select "view image" you can see the entire car. I think my favorite is either the black Monza or the maroon Pro Street one.

Doh! Didn't realize it was cutting them off! Didn't think I took that badly centered pics. I scanned them in and put the originals away. Than came back and made the post!

I'm using Windows Explorer and get the same thing. My son uses Firefox and doesn't have the problem.I've also found that I only have this problem with hot links to Photobucket.
If you want to see the picture in full size, right click > properties > copy address > paste to new window.
You can also ramp up the resolution on your monitor, but some of us old farts may have trouble reading the print.

Wow, certainly was a day of liberal paint usage. Striping, decals, artwork galore. Even the 1 Monza has what looks like woodgrain painted on it (with a little blue 2+2 in the background too). Those days were long before my time in cars (turned 16 2 years later) and didn't have my own till 9 years after that, lol. Those are some fantastic shots, love the IMSA's (both Vega and Monza) although the detailing is a little bold for me at this time. :P Certainly like the black Monza with the subtle orange pinstriping artwork, nice touches and not too bold.

My ride from 1980-84
Image

Put a 70 360 Horse Corvette 350 engine in after the Pontiac 350 let go. I had the Vette engine for my 39 Chevy but didn't have the experience needed to get it up and running. Sooo... My daily driver needs an engine, I have one sitting on the floor and by the end of the weekend it was running.
