Nice pictures
Nice pictures, but I think the Automobile article is getting a little too full by now. Some of these would do better on the individual articles for the types of car that they are.

I'm also going to remove the links to the California vehicle code and California DMV from the Automobile page. Wikipedia is international, and that page would get very overloaded if we linked every vehicle code and authority in the world. There might be a better place to put them.

Welcome to Wikipedia, though! and please do keep contributing. If others change what you did or disagree, it's simply because we're all trying to make Wikipedia the best encyclopedia possible.

We do need car pictures for all the models of car we don't yet have pictures for; I've uploaded some and User:Arpingstone has uploaded some, but any pictures you have taken that illustrate ones we don't have pictured would be a great thing.

I am new to Wikipedia and appreciate the feedback. I have linked the pictures to the individual articles and am editing some of them.

Nice work so far. Appreciate the clarification on the Biscayne -- hard to find much about them online, and I haven't seen that many (plenty of Impalas and Bel Aires, but not many Biscaynes -- though one does wonder how many have been turned into faux-Impalas and the like). In general, I don't know Chevys all that well, so it's good to see you can add a bit that I can't. --Morven 09:40, 7 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Actually, there's a fair amount of info on Biscaynes in, of all places, Australia. They were assembled in RHD form by Holden with leather upholstery. Some of the hot rod magazines feature souped up Biscaynes. Impalas outnumber them by about 10-1 so it would make more sense to turn an Impala or Caprice into a Biscayne than the other way around.

Certainly there aren't that many around these days whichever the cause -- I don't recall ever seeing one, and I've been to a fair number of car cruises and shows with my '67 Thunderbird --Morven 19:39, 7 Dec 2003 (UTC)
