The intention here is to share some photos of various areas or parts on the cars to help owners get familiar with where things are. A picture says 1,000 words, right?

Here are two photos showing the auto trans shift computer cable from underneath when it is 1.) floored and 2.) at idle.

I can't specifically remember, but these probably came from Dave S as well.

A few photos showing the throttle body and "butterfly" valves. Also a shot of new and old deceleration springs that are on each of those butterfly valves.

Great thread!
I think it should be "stickied" or put into the How-To's.....I'm sure I'll be revisiting it many times.

excellent idea Jonathan.
IMHO, this would be best in the "Resources section"?
Perhaps add the part number to posts so it will pop up in searches, as some things have multiple names?

There have been so many complete restorations in here and I can think of ovr a dozen photos on each of those threads that had valuable information.... And every time I am scanning EACH and every thread to find that photo I once saw.
I am with mouse's idea but creating thread groups as they are separated in the DMCH parts pages.
Catalogueging is the magic word

I'm a huge fan of taking photos and have several thousand from my chassis restoration project...some of them I've posted here in various other threads and those are also available in my profile photo albums.
I'm interested to see how this thread will pan out...right now it can be tough to search the board at times and it would be nice to have photos in one go-to place, but I can imagine this thread blowing up to dozens of pages covering a hundred or more individual topics, so some organization would be helpful.
