    Granvil,

    I can resize and send back photos for you if you want.

    If you are working on a Microsoft machine right click on the image and drag down to "Open With" That should give you a list of programs to choose from
    where you can edit (resize) your image.

    If you need a telephone walk through let me know.

    Jim

    Nice job Granvil.... I know you must like that pogo stick seat on the hardtail frame, you must be getting old, I've never seen you ride anything except a rigid!

    Had the electric start, wound up kicking it more often than using the electric. I did learn not to kick a Honda like you kick a Harley. They tend to fall over ... and your ankle hurts for a long time after you get up!

    I sprained an ankle on my 1951 before someone stole it, bought a 1962 had it until I got my electric start in 1966 and never looked back. as of now I have never sprained a thumb pushing that little button on the right handlebar. in case you are wondering no I do not have the 66 any more traded it in on a 67 the oldest bike that I have now is a 1986 and that as you know is not a vintage bike. All of my equipment lawn mowers Etc are electric start or totally electric. YES I AM LAZY but I do appreciate the effort you guys put into the vintage equipment I do attend steam shows with my 1946 electric start John Deere A . OK I do not want to occupy any more of your time as I know you are on a short time schedule. Best Regards See you in EUSTIS.
