This forum is a big part of why the Jetfire model has made it to where it is today. I only had the privilege of talking to Jim a couple times and a couple more emails but was always very helpful. Very thankful for Rick picking it up and keeping the forum going.

Doesn’t work like that for me Joe. I’m using an apple Ipad and Safari browser to get to google so maybe that’s the problem.

What OS are you using?

The best to you and your wife Eric. Great perseverance on the car, looking really nice.

Thanks Rick, appreciate your work and the site that you’re carrying on.

Looking real nice Eric!

Thanks guys.

I thought the body guy was taking a couple weeks off but he called earlier this morning and said he needed more money, lol. He has another 48 hours in it. He is having a VERY difficult time trying to match the paint. He has the bottom side primered with a quality thick black primer. The pitting that is there has filled in pretty…[Read more]

I just did a test. With this website open in one tab in Firefox, I opened a second tab and did a google search for a topic on the site, as I suggested above. When I open that topic, the pictures open up just fine. No gyrations, no magic, just two tabs open in the same browser.

Eric,
My best wishes to your wife also. I enjoyed meeting her at Homecoming. She is a sweetheart, take good care of her.

You too! We are about to head to my grandparents house. She is 89 and my Grandpa is 90. She still cooks for 30 to 40 of us that will cycle through her house today. I am so thankful to still have them with us and that they are doing well for their age.

Eric,
You’re right about family first. Best wishes to your wife. The car will always be there and deadlines aren’t always worth chasing. Happy Thanksgiving and well wishes to everyone!

So I reached the same conclusion Jim did on this lack of search and stopped my previous crusade. It would be nice to have the resident search but this forum is run at no charge and is a nice platform available to us.

Regarding the google search it does seem to work ok with an inconvenience factor I noted.
I may be wrong here but when you find…[Read more]

Not sure where I stand on this car for a completion date. I may have to put it on hold for a short while. We found out last week that my wife’s Scoliosis has progressed to 66 degrees on one curve and 39 on another and her pain has been getting really bad. She is having a major surgery in January and will be down for a good while. I will be…[Read more]

Looks outstanding! I still need to restore my starter and generator also. Not even looked into them much yet.

I am ready to start the motor, but the starter pinion is getting stuck on the flywheel. Nothing has changed, same starter as before, only surfaced the flywheel. Very strange, took off the solenoid and tried sliding the Bendix in and out by hand. Very hard. I am replacing the Bendix drive.

Hey [u]willcut[/u]I am and we should all be thankful for the website! None of us pay a penny to become a member or any cost of keeping up the site, it is all free to us! Please be more careful of your posts, I don’t think any of us want it to go away!

Hi Joe,
I also miss the ‘in site’ search function but your work around with Google search works! I will have to use it a few times to get the hang of it. Thanks for the GREAT tip!

Whats the first thing you get yelled at in a forum? “SEARCH THE FORUM”. not here… drunk webmaster?
