My New Project :)

Hi all
Some of you know i brought myself a scorpio 24v that needs some work and care to get back on the road, so this is my new project. It is a 97 saloon in silver, 24,213 miles from new  it was supplied from new and serviced by Haynes ford dearlership in kent every 2,000 miles. It has got the original number plates with haynes logo haynes metal badge on boot and the original scorpio matts  It is going to be a while before i can get it fixed but i am going to resist the temptation to modify it and its going to be kept original and as close to showroom as possible(apart from a cosworth badge). I have asked Haynes weather they have any rear window stickers or tax discs to add to the looks also. I have took some photos as it is now i hve only cleaned and treated the seats, but on the weekend i am going to tcut and wax then clean the enigne to the standard my last 24v was so i need plenty of autosol and wire wool Hope you all like it. This is the only way i could attach the photos because photobuckt isnt working properly 
Thanks
Dan

Thank you Tompion for your help as ever.
As Dave says be sure to restrict the size or Snoopy will be out of his kennel in a flash,very grumpy, and that is something to be avoided!.

Various ways, but as you have them hosted you may as well do them in photobucket.
Once again no doubt various ways within photobucket, but the way I just tried was:
Click on the Library tab
Hover your mouse over a thumbnail
An icon appears in the top right corner of the thumbnail
Click on the icon
Click on edit
When the picture enlarges click on resize – above the picture
Type in the size you want
Tick replace original (unless you want to keep both)
Click save
You may find the picture in my previous post doesn’t resize for quite some time – even days as it may be stored in cache either on the Scorpio site or your computer.

Hi mate
Thanks for the offer butI wont have any spare money for quite a while. I need to get the engine sorted first and it could be quite expensive
Thanks again
Dan
