Well we did it!!! Its in the yard!

We made the deal today,gave him 1700 for it. And a 1974 22' Argosy is setting in the yard. Its a project but that nothing new for us. It has the rear door and we also found the owners manual in it. I have photo's going to try to post if i can figure this out.

Congrats!

Congrats on your "new" trailer! Sounds great! Can't wait to see pictures.

Here is a "quickie" tutorial on the pics...

Just like you were going to respond on a thread, but click the go advanced button...

Type in whatever info you want to tell everyone...

Scroll down to the next section of the page (before you submit) to the "manage attachments" button. Click on manage attachments and you will be able to "browse" and upload your photos.

If the file size of your photos is too large... then they won't upload and you will have to make them smaller. (Usually will be too large if taken with higher resolution features in your digital camera.)

Then scroll down to the bottom of the section and click submit after your pics have uploaded.

Would love to see your pics!

Edit them to 600 x 800 and they won't be too large.

BTW, take pictures of everything before you take it apart. You'll be referring to them when you aim to put it back together! I also get many odd questions and realize, "Hey, I took a picture of that!" We all come back here to ask questions -- providing answers when we have them is the price of sharing.

Glad you're on board!
