Very close... it's a 1961 Mercury Comet. '62's had different tail lights - little round ones sort of like an Impala.
#21943 of 23942 post too wide by imidazol97 Jul 01, 2009 (5:02 am)
I apologize for posting pictures that were too wide in my previous post. The max width must be about 650 pixels or 640 pixels. I forgot to adjust width on old pictures from my photobucket account before posting.   As for the Chevies, I like the 59 over the 60 because the 59 is RED and a convertible. The 1960s looked great in a two door hardtop.     If the picture is blocked, here's the link: link title Replies to this message: andys120 (Jul 01, 2009 10:53 am) lemko (Jul 01, 2009 11:06 am)

Replying to: andys120 (Jul 01, 2009 10:53 am) That's a 1961Chevrolet Impala two-door sedan. Strange to see in this configuration as most I've seen are the bubble top hardtop. My Dad had a 1961 Chevrolet Biscayne two-door sedan finished in a cream color with a gray cloth/vinyl interior. It had the inline six mated to a three-speed manual shifted via the column. His car was pretty dressed-up for a Biscayne as it had whitewall tires and full wheel discs.

Since this problem of pictures causing the right margin of messages to be clipped off seems intractable, is there any way to request a different view so that an unreadable message that really looks interesting can actually be read? I would try hitting reply so that the message was redisplayed in the reference box, but the clipping removes the 'reply' link.

Replying to: bhill2 (Jul 01, 2009 11:54 am) The "Reply" link usually doesn't get completely cut off for me. Try playing with your View > Zoom or whatever size option your browser uses (control > mouse wheel works for some people too). Zooming it down usually brings the buttons into view, but sometimes zooming up works better and gives you a bigger target.   Our software isn't sophisticated enough to automatically resize or block the big photos.

Replying to: steve_ (Jul 01, 2009 12:44 pm) Another way around the problem is to click on "Last" for page selection at the bottom of the page, it moves the recent too-wide picture below all the stuff on the right, making the links clickable. Replies to this message: steve_ (Jul 01, 2009 1:02 pm)

Replying to: texases (Jul 01, 2009 12:58 pm) Right, but I don't think that works if the big pic is the last post... but y'all post so fast in here I rarely see that.   One of these years we'll get everyone trained. And then a software fix will finally come along the next day.
