That is a gorgeous Imperial...

 

Ok! How do you copy those images from the Mecum website?  I have to use the Snipping Tool to basically take a screen shot - but I can't get the full size image.

Hello Lancer Mike.
I open the image in full-screen mode and save the entire page to my desktop. Two files appear, where one of them contains photos. Each image in it is displayed three times in different sizes (I don't know why). But only one of them is in the largest one that is needed. I do this copying procedure for each image from the Mecum site (in full-screen mode), and then select the largest one from the file on the desktop and save it to a separate folder and delete the remaining small-format images. Then I compress (by special program) the largest image to 250 KB (no more) as recommended by the forwardlook site and post it on. No snipping tools.

I just tried that trick ("Save Page As") but only got 2 sizes of photos. One that was too small and one that was about 120 kB and would be good for posting here. I did not get the third "Full Size" size that is too big to post without further manipulation.

Hello Dave, try this:

First – open the full size picture – push the «FULL SCREEN» button in the right bottom corner of the picture
Second – «Save Page As» on your desk top…

Igor: That worked somewhat better. I got some that were about 440 kB (labled at the end with "2x") but I lost some of the 120 kB(ish) ones. The 120 kB ones are good enough to post here so I will leave that alone. Now I am mad that I didn't know this before when I was screen saving 56 Dodge photos at Mecum (major pain in the butt to capture, trim and save).

Anyway, thanks for posting this hint.
