Trying to Post Photo of pre-engine bay cleanup

Well... I just spent several hours to finally get a photo posted. I used Drop Box after resizing the photo using MS Paint to resize to 640 x 425 (Thanks FC Zach for your guidance and caution warning).
This photo shows the engine bay just prior to starting the task of cleaning the dust, grease, road grime, etc. off of it.



BELOW: I used POR Marine Clean followed by de-ionized water rinse to clean the engine bay. I sat several plastic oil drain pans on a thin oil drip tray to catch the liquids. Blow dry with compressed air and polish with NuFinish (to the right side of the tape line.)



BELOW: Replaced the gas struts to hold the rear glass open. Boy is that sucker heavy when they don't work right! Also, getting ready to drop the fuel tank to clean it (inside and outside).


BELOW: Fuel tank out, after siphoning about 7 gallons of skanky fuel that was about 15 yrs old using a "shaker valve" siphoning hose (worked great).



I will try to find a place to open a thread dealing with my project...BUT, thanks to you guys for the "welcome aboard" and guidance re: photo posting. I got "scared" of using Photo Bucket, when it appears they charge for 3rd Party Hosting (Drop Box does not.)
