Sure... if they are on Photobucket, then just copy the code under the picture on your Photobucket thumbnails page - use the third one code line, called "IMG Code" - that's the correct one for BBcode, which is what's used in our forum. Then just paste that code into your Mac posting. Simple!

I am not sure I could even get my leg into my White Suit I
was married in.

Nice car... Did carry an extra jar of "Grey Poupon " in the
Glove box?

Ha... Actually, I *do* have one in there - just because so many folks have asked!! (One of the tiny ones you get in a hotel)

And I can't fit in that suit anymore either! :( :x

TRIUMPH

Why didnt you buy a TRIUMPH MAYFLOWER instead of the RENOWN? You being a sailor.The MAYFLOWER was a famous boat Question, How do you gat away with using that British plate on the car?

Because the Mayflower is a pig... it's *very* slow (has a 1247cc flathead engine), they rust like nothing you've ever seen and they are tiny, heavy little cars... On the other hand, the Renown has a 2-litre long-stroke OHV engine (you can pull stumps out with it in first gear!), you can stretch your legs out straight in any seat, and all the moving panels are made of aluminum... and it's quiet and smooth as a Rolls at speed.

Yeah, the Mayflower had a nice name, but that's about it! It was, quite possibly, Triumph's worst car ever.

Given the choice, which would you have bought, back in the day?

Back in the day when they were made I was only 6-8 years old, hull even when I was in my late teens I could,nt afford a Triumph. Oh ,I did have TRIUMPH motor cycle though.What would I have bought if I had the money back then. I suppose a nice Armstrong Siddely or Rover, possibly a Riley. i did like the Triumph 1800/2000 Roadster with the aluminum panels though, it had a nice rumble seat in the (boot) trunk.
