    Well, I quickly messed with the pic you posted. I would keep the raw files and see what details you can pull out when you get access to a PC.

    Flooded cars post 1980 are bad news. You will always have electrical issues. The engine is probably the one thing i would not have swapped. Everything else yes. Electrical, interior, switches.....

    Pretty sure that's a setting on my camera I need to sit down and find. The blacks are sometimes to dark to lighten up to begin with.

    Means your not letting enough light in.

    Close the aperture more. Slower shutter speed. Or more ISO. Or a small combo of all three.

    Well, crap. The softopper does arrive today but it is going to my parents in Banner. Apparently the shipper used my paypal shipping address and not the one I asked for. :pout:. Looks like I won't get it until next week...or I might just wait until I get there for turkey day.

    Yeah, not a big deal at all.

    Freakin' awesome news. I applied for a simms pro deal knowing it would probably get decline. It did, but they took into account what I am going to school for and my summer job. They are offering me a one time pro deal discount to purchase all the gear I can for the upcoming 2016 field season. I know where my scholarships are going.

    Fly fishing. So waders, rain gear, winter clothing, waterproof backpacks etc. Best gear you can buy but it has one heck of a premium price on it.

    Gotcha. Yea keep me posted. I work in Maryland heights so I'm cool with meeting in st Charles.

    Yea it did suck. Especially cause I got it for 450. Paid him 200 down. Oh well.

    Gotcha. Nice. I get some good pro deals working at my job. Like there are a few sites that allow me access to tons of pro deals. They are nice. My brother too for being a nols course alumni and S&R.

    Heard my buddies fiat 500 Abarth drive away tonight. Thing sounds awesome. Great exhaust note and tons of turbo whistle.

    Still too small of a car..but I bet it's fun usually. 45-50mpg is nice too.
