Triumph TR6 - MEMBERS CAR PHOTOS
Hello All, A couple of weeks ago there was some comments about being able to post photos of our cars on the thread. So I got to thinking and realised it's should not be that hard to do so after a few hours of playing around I've created a BBS site for us all to share photo of our cars, projects and anything that a photo would help in. I can set it up with one page for cars, another for projects / tips etc. I'm new to this webpage thing so any comments are welcome...click on the e-mail link .. I'm sure the page and layout will change as I learn..here is the link. Charlie http://members.rogers.com/chasballard/ |

Charlie, thanks for your efforts. I will try to get some pics this week of my efi supercharger project posted as I have received help from this list on it. Special thanks to Peter Cubbold. |
Gene Holtzclaw |
Charlie - Would TR3A photos be acceptable ? Don Elliott, Original Owner, 1958 TR3 |
Don Elliott |
No problem Don !! Looking forward to them. Charlie |
Charlie Ballard |
Charlie, Like your plates ! The system in NL is so ridged; plates will be allocated to you. You will get the next number in the range. Vowels are prohibited to avoid 3 or 4 letter words. Nu fun at all. Erik |
E. Creyghton |
Well done Charlie. The baby is in your mailbox. I love the plate, well done indeed. Jim (Goosed) |
Jim Deatsch |
Wow this idea turned out to a hit !!! thx guys I've improved it again hahaha 3 more cars to add now..my e-mail server is spinning!! Charlie |
Charlie Ballard |
Charlie, thanks so much. We need more pictures! |
JL Bryan |
Gorgeous cars - and many thanks for the work you did to develop this site! (I get to take credit for the ideal!!!) |
R.C. Blair |
Well done Charlie, its good to see the car that goes with the name. Ron |
R. Algie |
Congratulations to Charlie on a nice website, and to all of us on a nice-looking bunch of cars! I am really hoping Don Hasara took his pictures at a dealer; if not that's a heck of a collection! Simon, in awe of the Garage Mahal. |
Simon Rasmussen |
Rick, What kind of wheels are those? Nice man! |
John Parfitt |
Simon, Photos were taken at Wilson Motors in St. Louis. |
D Hasara |
Top job Chaz!!!! - Hey guys one thing seems to be missing though (and it's not the hair or teeth!) We need some life in the photos......c'mon..... lets put a face to the text we've been replying too for all these months.....or hey..... maybe we are getting a bit self-conscious in our old age?? ;0) Roger (I will if you will) PS I have not yet submitted a pic as I am desperately trying to figure out how to put one of my wedding using wedding cars tunbridge wells photos into the latest digital snap of the TR.........hmmmm..scanner..scissors..Adobe photoshop ...ah what the hell I'll just take one tomorrow! |
Roger H |
Thanks Roger.. My picture is there !! I'm slowly losing hair and I've lost some teeth faster !!..can you spell DENTURE!!!hahha Charlie |
Charlie Ballard |
Roger, It won't work. Your picture will be upside down! I'll loan you a northern hemisphere copy of PS Jim () |
Jim Deatsch |
Ok Guys, Once Charlie gets a nice collection I'll grab the pics from him and create a screen saver with all our pictures in it. THE CARS not our fugly mugs. <G> I'll post it,hidden, on my website and everyone in the group can download it. No commercial application, just for us. It's gonna be a couple meg I'm sure, but if you're broadband then it won't be an issue. How's that? Jim (and a goose in a pear tree) |
Jim Deatsch |
John, The wheels are Revolution Alloys, made in the UK. Revolution USA in Phoenix sells 'em, but shop Rimmer before you buy. I don't remember what Rick paid for his, but the price they quoted from Rimmer saved me nearly $300, even after shipping. Charlie: Very cool, and again Merry Christmas! (and happy moToRing!!!!) Rod |
Rod Nichols |
Jim, You gotta work the goose into the screensaver! Don |
D Hasara |
Don, Don, Don, don't you think that's already covered? Snickering here. HEY JOHN, you ever seen a goose driving a TR6? Jim (everybody better be VERY nice to me lest they get 'goosed') |
Jim Deatsch |
Ok, here's the deal on the screen saver guys. I'll take the liberty of removing any other vehicles in the background of your pic (Don, can you get me a pic outside the shop so there's not so many other cars in the backround?) so as to clean things up a bit and make us look more like the pros we are. <G> I'll cut it off in the middle of January or so if that's ok with everyone and do the first 'release' of the screen saver. If we get a bunch of additional cars after that then I'll do another one. Jim (looking for JUST the right goose) |
Jim Deatsch |
Charlie Was going to e-mail you but decided to put it here instead. Your sight is beyond fantastic! What a Christmas present for all concerned. Thanks Bill |
Bill Brayford |
Bill, Thanks to you and everyone for those kind words..we are up to 17 cars now....I know there is more out there so let's see them !! A MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !! Charlie |
Charlie Ballard |
Jim, I'll see what I can do, but it's in pieces now. Of which part would you like a photo of? Don |
D Hasara |
Don, hmmmmmm, the bonnet, we'll put it on the goose. <insert huge grin here> Jim |
Jim Deatsch |
Looks like we'll need to wait till the new year to admire our cars again!! |
R. Algie |
I'll think Charlie shuts down his server at night. We Europeans have to wait till he wakes up. App. 2.00 p.m. (8.00 am in the USA) Eric |
Eric de Lange |
Nope - the server's down until January from what I saw. Traffic exceeded the monthly allotment. Someone's probably going to want more $$ from Charlie..... |
Brent B |
Charlie, Great job along with the screen saver this is a tremendous thing. Finally puts a face (so to speak) to all of us here on this site. Regards and Holiday Greetings to all, Keith |
Keith Dixon |
I'm working on the server thing..stupid rules !! Charlie |
Charlie Ballard |
Not much I can do till Jan 1...It's a free service based on e-mail accounts so I can't really complain..I'll need to downsize the pictures though I didn't think they were that large and trim this is what they sent me.. "We are sending you this e-mail message to inform you that your WebSpace usage has reached 100% of the monthly 300 MB traffic allowance. As a result, your WebSpace accounts have been automatically disabled for the remainder of the calendar month. They will be reactivated at the start of the next calendar month." As Arnold sez....'I'LL BE BACK" Cheers Charlie |
Charlie Ballard |
Wish I could help you but unfortunatly I know plenty about old cars but very little about computers. Ron |
R. Algie |
GEEES!!! Go away to FL for a week and 1/2 and this BBS has changed. It appears I can not send my pic (with me in it) till next year. I await Jan 1st. Charlie, it sounds like you have won the prize along with Jim. VERY well done Charlie nad Jim. Best of the season to all Rick C |
Rick Crawford |
THAT will teach you to go to Florida and leave the rest of us up here envying you. THAT'S the punishment, agreed? <G> Jim (shivering) |
Jim Deatsch |
Rick, you were down here? You don't call, you don't write! And, you picked the coldest spell we have had this season. But, hope springs eternal. Its back up in the mid 70's today. God, I love saying that 2 days before Christmas! John |
JL Bryan |
John You have mail. It was not that bad...had my shorts on. Unfortunately did not see and gooses:) lots of Dolphins though. Do not be to envious guys...this was NOT a holiday. Jim..Reality struck home while driving back through Erie PA to your lovely State and Buffalo...simply, the driving conditions where not nice. Ya goota love that lake effect. The very best to all Rick C PS Charlie, you have mail (also). |
Rick Crawford |
Charlie - I see that your photos are available again. http://members.rogers.com/chasballard/ Don Elliott, 1958 TR3A, Montreal |
Don Elliott |
Thanks...I'll work on it this week-end and add the new photo's... Charlie |
Charlie Ballard |
Hello All, The site is back up and running with some improvements..I've linked to a couple of more webspaces (behind the scene) so it gives me more space and less chance of too many visits shutting it down. I've started a TIP section so any helpfull ideas and photos you might like to share let me know. All those who submitted car pix I believe I have shown them all..If I missed anyone let me know. Cheers Charlie http://members.rogers.com/chasballard/ |
