Looking for parts? start an ad here... http://community.ratsun.net/classifieds/category/3-datsun-parts/?sort_key=date_added&sort_order=desc  not here. This is the Project Datto section for the discussion and posting of your project ipdates. You can do better than this one line post above. Try an introduction with something about your Datto, how, when, where you got it and future plans for it. In this day and age everyone has a camera phone so no excuses, I want to see lots of pictures.

i think that link to my photos worked not the biggest computer wiz haha

[datzenmike]

You can't sent directly to Ratsun. You need to download to a picture hosting website.

i used photobucket and added the link in my first post at the top here underneath the description of the car i changed it so its better than that one line post

When you pull up your picture on Photobucket, find and click on the IMG link. It should light up yellow and say "copied".

Now go back to ratsun and paste it in your post. DONE!
