Another new member !

Post by wilfwalk »

Hi All, I just want to introduce myself to the forum. I'm in Bloem and bought my first Hilux in about 1988/9 - the first 2,2 litre double cabs. Since then I've had 4 others, so I don't need any "converting" - also had 3 Land Rovers, but I grew out of lying under them every weekend fixing, fixing, fixing !
I look forward to learn and maybe contributing here and there. Have a good day everyone !

Wilfred, Use the "Post Reply" facility that appears below the "Quick Reply" text-box. In that window, scroll down past the text-box and click on "Attachments". From there click on "Add Files" and your explorer window pops up - select the file/s and click "Open". They will load automatically. Once loaded, you can select to "Place in-line" if you want them to appear at preferred positions within your text. Click on "Submit" as usual, when you're done.

NB !!
Your image sizes must not exceed 600x800 pixels, so you will need to resize them first.

Good luck, looking forward to the pics! :winkx:
