Ha ha.
Sorry bud, my laptop crashed for the second time. When I try to re-install windows XP she shuts off during install. I decided that I'm not going to spend anymore money on that ole' piece of crap, and just buy a new one. In the mean time I am strategically posting stuff at work. (On tha Down Low) I can not post picture from my blackberry phone. Browser--Java script errors or something. There are differents in mobile and Html views. I wish Blackberry would upgrade their browser. Anyhoot, that's the 411 on that.

I would love to have a top and side view so I could toss around the idea about 2x3 frame.

this is a 60 - 62 4 x4 frame not a 64-66
aerotrucks picture is right for a 63 and is the same for 64-66 2 wheel drive

Joe....did you try enlarging them on the Media-Convert site? I haven't yet, just wondering if you tried them out or not.

[1Bad62Pro/Street]

If anyone can help me on this let me know.
From wht I have been told:
If you are enlarging a small picture, you are enlarging all the pixels within the picture. So with each pixel being bigger it doesnt look as seamless hence the blurry effect. Only .eps, .svg, .ai pictures can be resized without being blurry.
I did find this:

I don't have Photo Shop.

Sorry these are not readable. If anyone can help......... will be much a much obliged.

do you have an online picture hosting site you use?
you could upload the larger images to one and then post the link here......
also maybe try scanning them with the highest quality setting, if you haven't already.

[1Bad62Pro/Street]

I will try, and see what I can do?

Joe,

It maybe your FireFox Browser.
There are so many Pro's and Cons on the Big 3! And I want even start to explain!
http://www.obsessable.com/news/2008/...-chrome-opera/

I have used all 3, and had all different kind of problems and errors with each 3.
http://www.download.com/8301-2007_4-10154447-12.html

Windows Internet Explorer 8
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/Int...a/default.aspx

FireFox 3
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

Opera 9.6 Web browser
http://www.opera.com/

I favor Opera the most. But Opera and my Hotmail/Windows Live don't Jive.
Right now I use IE8.

Lets hope it's not Browser hijacking! I was a victom!
"Browser hijacking" is a common type of online attack in which hackers take control of your computer's Internet browser and change how and what it displays when you're surfing the Web.

If you keep your computer updated with the latest security software and updates, and practice safe Internet browsing, you're already doing a lot to keep the hijackers away.

But if your browser has already been "hijacked," there are several ways you can free it from the hackers and restore its settings.

I've got the option of buying a 63 chevy stepside for parts and was wondering if I could use the frame for my 62 chevy short fleetside? The 63 is a short bed stepside. Also was wondering about the back bumpers. Will the back bumper on the stepside line up to the fleetside bed? Hopefully I can get this truck for a really good price so I can start parting my truck together. Thanks

[Captainfab]

Yes you can use that '63 frame with your '62 body. You will need to drill new holes for your front cab mounts, and your bed cross sills are different between the '60-'62 and the '63-'66. The front and rear of the '60-'62 frames are wider than the '63-'66 frames, so the rear bumpers don't interchange. It may sound like a bit of work, but it isn't that bad.
