I have no idea why the website is rotating my photos 90 degrees? Anyone have a fix for this?

It's from photobucket, offhand I'd say they are changing the exif data of the pic and PY is expecting something else?


pic originally taken with a phone?
photobucket changes the parameters of portrait/landscape of phone to their website. PY sees the pic as phone but doesn't know it's been changed to fit photobucket?

Swapped out the speedometers today. Not too bad of a job, just tedious getting to the two speedo screws and unhooking the speedometer cable. To do it you gotta remove the lower dash panel, the A/C ducting, unbolt the inner reinforcement brackets for the dash, drop the column, before you can even attempt to remove the gauge woodgrain panel and its associated hardware. An hour of labor to do a one minute gauge swap from the pod.

Now it looks like a respectable pre-smog, top speed, gauge cluster. And as an added bonus, it even works and it's reading the same exact mileage on the odometer as before!

Steve, I feel you brother. I had to do the same on my 74 to swap the clock out for the tach with clock.

Default Clearance issues: 255/50xZR17

Have you experiences any clearance issues using 255/50xZR17 size tires?

I don't think this post is following the thread I am questioning. This is in regards to using 255/50xZR17 tires with the 9 x 17 snowflake wheels on a 2nd gen firebird. Thank you.
