The pictures you're linking to on imageshack.us are in thumbmail mode - you might try changing that on imageshack - unclick the box for thumbnail mode on each pix and see what that does. You can also upload the pix to your samba gallery and link from there.

This woks best, and is easiest for me... it also enables others who use this site to see your gallery from your classified adds, your forum comments, or your profile. This promotes your networking platform when selling the junk in your bus. I haven't noticed an increase in sales, however... only in the junk in my bus. It has now overflowed into the rest of my house. (a joke, ha ha.)

Now, just roll that fatchick beetle to the curb, and your shop is good to go.
Any idea what the logos on the blue panel said?

My direction with shop is mainly vws, buses mostly but have and will take on others. I started out in production body shops yrs ago and turned it over to vws full time about 5yrs ago when I realized I didnt like working for anyone but myself. I myself go for patina and keeping shit og. but if someone wants a full resto. I have no problem with it.

my garage has been Superbeetle free except for three months last spring.
And I only got that one to help out an elderly VW nut who has the goods in his garage. My evil plan is still hatching.
