Open the photos in Microsoft Paint, on the tool bar near the left, it has a "resize" button. Switch the
units from percent to pixels and replace the biggest dimension in pixels with about 800 or 1000. Then
click on the top most, left most icon (looks like a page with lines on it) and use SAVE AS (
NOT SAVE)
under the to save it to
a different name, like, if the original is Hotrod.jpg, save it to something like
Hotrod_small.jpg or Hotrod_emailresized.jpg, whatever. Don't permanently downsize the original
image file by doing a "SAVE", use the "SAVE AS" to save to a different name.
If you are worried about harming the original file, copy the file to a new name like Hotrod_small.jpg
and then load THAT copy into Paint and resize it and just SAVE it. This is safer, for sure, only working
with a copy of the original file.
Also, I grew up in the car culture of the late 60s and had friends with hot cars of various kinds,
but I copied the online lyrics to save typing....and it says "Two cool
shorts standing side by side".
I always thought they said "Two cool
sharks standing...." I had heard of guys cruising around
looking for a race called "sharks', but no idea what 'shorts' woud refer to. Short wheelbase?
Also, the online lyrics say "Superstock
Dodge windin out in low...' I thought I heard "Superstock
Dart.."
It also refers to "Ram Induction sitting under his hood...", and there was a Dart in '62 with dual
four barrels with cross ram manifold. I am not sure the Dart engine compartment was wide enough
for the Ram Induction system with two 4 bbl carbs, outboard of the rocker covers, and long crossing
manifolds feeding the head on the other side of the engine.
Maybe poetic license. Or maybe there was Ram Induction in a Dart. Or maybe they said "Dodge",
because they sure had it in the bigger cars.

Ram Induction, sonic tuning with the long runs, to assist in low RPM torque and power.

Very cool old muscle car tech, look at those manifolds!
