i own a 1968 mk11 super deluxe auto. i,m the second owner and it has only had new front wings, outer sills and rear valence. it has won quite a few trophies including second in class at the london to brighton. this looks a great forum as i'm fed up with people taking the p*** because it's an auto.

There you go your pictures should be there now ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) I think the reason they wouldn't show up is the url of the photos was the one that displays in the address bar on your Photobucket page. Ive used the one that appears in the box on the left hand side of your photobucket image on your account in the block labeled "Share This Image" ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) The photo link appears in a little box that says "Direct Link" if you use that link they should appear fine ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) If you need any help please don't hesitate to ask ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) By the Way what a gorgeous little Mini Auto ![:-*](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/kiss.png) Huggz Jodie ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

No Problem were here to help ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) That last one you posted appeared as a click-able link you just missed out the img tags. so keep getting the image url from the same place on your photobucket page and click on the ![](http://s1.images.proboards.com/img.gif) icon when your typing you message two img tags appear the first one between square brackets[] will say img,the second set of [] brackets will say /img click your cursor after the closing img ] but before the opening [/img then paste your image URL there ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Its quite hard to explain without being there so another way would be because you posted the above message you will see the "Modify" tag,click on that and it reopens the message for editing that way you can clearly see how the image link should be typed ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) When members ask what to type its hard to show them as if you press the ![](http://s1.images.proboards.com/img.gif) tag to show them an example the img tags wont appear in your image ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) likewise if you type then by hand they wont show up ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) and if you put a image link between them the image appears and it still doesn't explain ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png) Hope it helped and please don't hesitate to ask again if you need to ill be honest it took me years to figure it out then one day it just clicked ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) Huggz Jodie ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

It is totally origional, never been welded- they dont put salt on the roads in Jersey, it needed a bit of paintwork and some new chrome bits. Unfortunatly the forward clutch was slipping so, the day after it passed the MOT the engine was lifted out and the box stripped over christmas. It all went back in last weekend and is almost ready to fire up and see if I have done it right- fingers crossed! Does anyone know how many mk1 autos are still running, seems they are not as rare as I thought.

Hi Simon welcome to the register your story sounds a little like Holly's she got hers from guernsey whilst on holiday ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) I think theres more mk1 autos still about than people think but every time i hear of a new one more often than not they've been tucked away under a tarp in a garage or barn ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png) I think theres still more out there to be discovered ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) Lets hope more and more Automatic Minis get saved and put back on the road ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) Huggz Jodie ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
