June 17, 201114 yr figuratively speaking anyway. '87 GL, 5 speed dual range. Hi all. Me ? Not much to tell other than I like anything with an engine, more so if it goes really fast and gets ************ty gas mileage.
June 17, 201114 yr Hello and Welcome! not to burst your bubble or anything - but you do know that your 87 GL is no where near "fast", right?? but you do have the dual range tranny, so it does redeem itself... and what if it goes really fast and gets GOOD gas mileage??? (two wheeled terror )
June 18, 201114 yr Author Sliding a hair pin turn on a gravel road at 20 MPH is scary fast when there is a 300 foot drop off on the outside. No the GL is not be the quickest car I have owned but the damned thing is fun. Any way to upload pics from my computer or cell phone on this board ? ETA Yes decent fuel economy is a welcomed advantage in the name of extended cruising range. Edited June 18, 201114 yr by Eatmore Mudd Forgot to mention
June 18, 201114 yr Steps to upload photos: Get a photobucket account (free) Upload photos to Photobucket Get the code shown in the instructional photo below: Copy that code. Paste it into a reply to thread box, message, forum post, etc. Always preview post to see how it will look. I tend to resize my pix to 640X480 so they fit on the screen nicely. Cant wait to see pix, seems like a fun little ride, I currently own a 1986 GL Sedan with D/R 4x4 and am very happy, and this may not be super fast, but it is quite a load of fun!

June 18, 201114 yr yup, what he said ^^^ yeah, they can be loads of fun if you know how to get the most out of what you have.
June 18, 201114 yr Ive seen people use flickr or something like that, I guess any online photo storage site should work, or you can email the pics to someone and they can post them for you.
June 19, 201114 yr picasa web or the like. wherever the pic is viewable, right click "copy image location. then click the image icon in your reply, and paste the link. there is your picture. You learned this with windows 95

You learned this with windows 95 Unfortunately I didn't. While other guys were lusting after commodores vic 64 I was messing with boring bars and torque plates.
June 19, 201114 yr Author picasa web or the like. You learned this with windows 95 Unfortunately I didn't. While the other guys were fussing and fooling with Apple II's and TRS-80's I was kind of busy with boring bars and torque wrenches, missed the whole windows 1.0 to XP thing. I will look around for something less irritating than photo-bucket till then there is still my avatar. A beer to the first one to figure out the license plate number.
June 19, 201114 yr A beer to the first one to figure out the license plate number. avatar pic is entirely too small to even get a hint from all i can see of it is that it is mainly white...
June 19, 201114 yr avatar pic is entirely too small to even get a hint from all i can see of it is that it is mainly white... Agreed, I wonder if a mod has access to the full size pic... then the mod could have a beer
June 20, 201114 yr Author Crap I hoped someone could figure out how to enlarge the license plate. Edited June 20, 201114 yr by Eatmore Mudd
June 20, 201114 yr Crap I hoped someone could figure out how to enlarge the license plate. Once a pic is that small, all the detail has been lost and can never be recovered. I could blow it up till the cows come home, but it wont help - it would be just a blurry mess.
