Herbie's Restoratio

[davearoy]

This is a test photo upload from Flickr of my Classic Roadster Dutchess “Herbie” . If this comes through I will post more photos about Gelcoat, and a body off restoration. Thanks to Vince for his help with Flickr, as I use a iPad.

Both picture and car look really nice.  Gotta love that British Racing Green (hehe, mine is also green!).

Clickable link to your car picture. If you used the Insert Hyperlink button the http:// portion of it needs to be left out or else it won’t go into your messages right, since that already adds it for you. I’m not sure if there’s another way… maybe [ URL]link address[ /URL] ?

Like the car and the motor bike. I had a 10 speed bicycle back in the 1980’s that I added an engine to. It used a little wheel pushed against the tire. I was always adjusting it because of a tendency to slip.

I envy those of you with the replica (or real?) TD headlight brackets.

Ok here I go again to try and up load another picture from Flickr, to our web site. This luggage rack is a design I came up with. I did not want to drill any holes in Herbie’s body. My car is a Duchess so the engine opens backwards, and the luggage rack clears the bumper. Made from 1/2″ electrical conduit, and scrap lumber from Hm Depot. I will post better pictures after stain and painting

I hope this come through, tks for y alls patience on my posting pics, and I appreciate earlier comments made

I am trying again to post a pic of a luggage rack to show everyone pics of Herbie. I hope this comes through. Paul my apologies if I posted about a luggage rack here, instead of on that topic. I am just learning how to post pics from my ipad

Tks   Dave
