Download VSO image Resize and post the pictures here.

harjeev · 19th December 2009, 10:36

I am using this software
Faststone image resizer
Am using picasa too but I find this one much better and faster.

Best of luck with the restoration and if its possible please share the cost incurred , details of the vehicle, etc. It really helps other members to be better informed when they take on their restoration or rebuild projects.

nikhil1300 · 19th December 2009, 16:19

well abut the cost the whole rebuild will cost me 2.5 to 3lac approx.break up will be possible only after the vehical is ready
