Found only the blue or red ones, also in racing magazines from end 60 to mid 70`s, but this guy built a real good blue one :thumbsup:http://perso.wanadoo.fr/feeling43/512blt.htmhttp://perso.wanadoo.fr/feeling43/512blt.htm

Roger,

There is a nice picture of a yellow 512M that was entered by Escuderia Montjuich and raced by Jose Juncadella and Nino Vaccarella during the 1971 Le Mans 24 Hours. Since I haven't figured out how to post the picture I will just give the link to the site.

I think this would beat a 512M?

Hey Porsche917k,

Nice pictures, but what I am really interested in, is how you posted them???
They are way over the 48.8KB??

The pictures I have posted so far have to be shrunk down to where you can not see the detail very well.

Inquiring minds want to know!!!

I can post pics as big as I want. I just can't use the HobbyTalk photo hosting I have to use my own.

Thanks...

It's easy actually...I have these posted in the HobbyTalk Photo Gallery. Go to the gallery, pull up one of your pictures, view it at its largest size, right click on it, open its properties, grab that URL, add that URL into the "INSERT IMAGE" feature here...

Hi Pairadiceracing,

My way is kind of complicated and requires FTP software and webspace from an internet provider. I post the pics on my webspace and link to them, but I am only allowed a certain amount of space and traffic per month.

porsche917k's answer is much better than mine.

Regards,

Hi everyone,

Patrick and SCJ are the pictures I'm looking for. No red Ferrari'sr the Blue Sunoco. I'm looking for something different to Model. SCJ yours is basicaly the same as Patricks, however since I can finally tell for sure that the color on the spoiler tabs is a dark green if Patricks car wins you will get one too :)

SCJ are you home yet or still on the road??

Oh, I almost forgot....since I knew this was NOT the car you were looking for, but this street car from the mid 90's is also called an F-512M! :)

Still on the road....I think I have better ones at home, but will have to wait.

Hi Mike,

I do use FTP to load our web page (www.slotcars.org/hosers), its free through John Ford (Scale Auto Racing News). I may have to give it a try.

And thanks to Paul's info, that sounds like it may be a simpler way.

I will have to give a try when I get time.

Thanks again guys,
Warren
