S'more cars from the new DVD. I was unable to get better pictures of the Ford GPA or the GAZ 69 because my DVD drive inexplicably won't play past the quicksand scene (which ticks me off since I had the perfect shot in mind for the GAZ).

I know these are probably too big but I don't have XnView or whatever it was called on this computer. I just wanted to know if these shots were okay. If so I'll get XnView and resize them accordingly, if someone can tell what the preferred size is again?

The ice cream truck is a 1948-53 Chevrolet 3112.

This car...
http://img373.imageshack.us/img373/8692/crystalskullcar2em6.jpg
..sort of looks like a 1955 Oldsmobile of some kind.

This can't be any more obvious as the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air that it is.



Is this the "Unknown convertible" that's curretly listed without an image?

I think so. Also, while I was unable to make my DVD drive cooperate I was able to get a decent-quality Torrent of the film for use in making screenshots, so here's some better pics of:

http://img253.imageshack.us/img253/7642/crystalskullgaziu8.th.jpg GAZ 69. 3 stars.

Plus:

There's also the made-for-movie "jungle cutter," but I'll be hornswoggled if I can get even a halfway decent shot of that thing. It looks like the unholy lovechild of a a train and a street sweeper.

Thanks for the photos. The preferred maximum size is 720px, and image should be 80kb or less. If you get xnview, make sure to set the JPEG compression slider at 80% (click on 'options' next to the format bar in the 'batch conversion' menu)

Try with "Paint" the very commom program in any Windows system. I use it in all my pics.

Okay, here is the first one I've tried fixing using XnView. I think it's the right size, dimension-wise, but how about the filesize? Says 50KB. Is that all right?

The picture is 10 pixels too wide (maximum is 720*576).
(And your DVD is probably just defective, you should exchange it for a new copy at the store).
22/10/2008 @ 01:32:35: Kooshmeister: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
No, the drive does it with every DVD. In fact, Crystal Skull is the only one I could to play at all.

And, whoops, I typed 730 and I meant 720. D'oh.

There. Is this better? :smile:

I'm going to assume that 720X301 and 48KB are good so here's the remainder of the resized screenshots.

There. Hopefully these are satisfactory. I'll fix them if they aren't, but I just hope I got it right this time.

The ice cream truck is a 3112. Check out this thread:
http://forum.imcdb.org/forum_topic-862-Chevrolet_Truck_I_D___s_of_the_1940_s__1950_s.html


For the record, 1960 was the year Chevy started labeling their trucks "C-10," "K-10," "C-20," "K-20," "C-30," "K-30," etc.

BTW, If it isn't a problem, could you also convert your captures for 'The Dream Team' as well? They will be added as soon as possible.

Sure, I can do that. :smile:

My new DVD drive arrived in the mail today. I shouldn't have jumped the gun and used the sub-par avi file to get pics of the GAZ, duck and troop carrier. So here's DVD-quality screengrabs of those three.

Getting a non-blurry shot of the troop carrier was freakin' difficult as all get-out. I couldn't decide which one looked better so there's both.

There's also more background cars during the chase with the KGB agents as well as some motorcycles and a truck of some sort right at the start. All 1 star.

'55 or '56 Imperial.


'56 Chevrolet. I think it's a 210, see rusty mutt's post here.
