OK, that was a lie but I got a Flickr link.
I think of my car as the best looking 30footer Fiat in my whole street .
And here it comes http://www.flickr.com/photos/21443020@N06/4512902250/
One day I will take time to find out how to put real photos on here.

Nice car! I find that mine looks pretty ratty when Its picture size exceeds 80 x 80 pixels... Is that its stock height? It looks like it might be lowered a bit in the front profile shot. Looks good.

in Flickr, there's an option right after you sign in to click on "Your Photostream". When you do, you then click on the pic that you want to post. After clicking on the pic you wanna post, look at all the tiny little options that exist immediately above that pic. One of them says "all sizes".

When you click on "all sizes" it brings the pic you wanna post up in another screen. The bottom of that screen has an option to "Grab the photo's URL". To "grab" it is to copy it by highlighting it, and doing the "Control C" command. (Hold down the control key while pressing the "C" button. The computer won't give much of an acknowledgment that you grabbed/copied it, but you did...

From there, start your thread here on Fiatspider.com. Once yer ready to post your pic, choose the "Img" option that you'll see with a buncha others just above the box that you type your post in. When you do, it'll give you one of these:


[img] [img]



When it gives you one of those, your cursor will be blinking right in the middle. Leave it there, and hold down the Control button while hitting the "V" key. That'll put the Flicker photo info in, and that should do it. Sorry to condescend if you already know how to copy & paste, but I'm amazed at how many don't know that...

Use this info to post more pics of your car, and what you do to it!

Thanks thechadzone,
also for helping how to show photos. Believe it or not but I learned how to copy about 18 month ago.
The springs are from Vick's and like everybody here I needed to cut the rear ones.
It doesn't look very low because it's siting on 185/60 13 and those have a small diameter and that leaves a lot of air above but also lowers the car a bit more.

Nice looking car. I like the way the front sits low. Much better than the stock height on my 79.

I did it, here is my first photo. That computer thing is really not easy.
Thanks again, thechadzone

My car sits that low as well however, a real pain in the ass when you need to get a jack under there to lift it up. My next toy will be a very low profile hydraulic jack.

I use the original jack on one side first and than a small hydraulic jack under the cross member. Before I lower it I put a 2x6 under the wheel and than just roll of that.
I need to get a big low profile jack but for now all my money goes into parts.
