I am trying to find threads for a 1960 Bug seat rail, floor pan dimensions.
I found some good photos in the gallery...
Image may have been reduced in size. Click image to view fullscreen.


But I want to find which threads or posts these imagines are in, cause I think such thread or post will have more details I want to find.

How can one do this?

I tried the photo takers samba name in a thread search but cant find where these galleries photos were used.

Any ideas on how to find these threads that contain this image?

Thanks

You can search from the gallery but to find the gallery entry from a Forum posting isn't super easy.

In almost all cases you can take the image number and pull that up in the gallery.

For instance, the photo # above is:
1690992
which I got from
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/1690992.jpg

The Gallery entry is the same # so the Gallery entry is:
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_page.php?pic_id=1690992

If you open
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_page.php?pic_id=1690992
you can click on:
Search Forums for photo
on that entry to find everywhere it's used.
For the photo above this gives this search link:
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/search.php?search_id=gallerypic&search_keywords=1690992

You could also use that search link above and substitute the # (or any gallery #) in a similar search link.
