My wife said she noticed a citicar recently posted on ebay.? Looks like a red maybe 1976.

I changed one of my settings and now it works.

Thanks
Bob

Why can't I add Pictures to my album?
Thanks

Sure.? Easy process.? Draw the stripes 1:1 scale that you want cut using using a vinyl cutter onto paper.
Open your favorite vector drawing program (I use InkScape on Linux).? Open a blank file setting the dimensions several inches larger.? (Inkscape) The cross is the 0,0 coordinates.? Work everything from there.? Measure either a vertical or horz line from the origin.? Several lines have very slight slopes to them so measure the ending point of that line.? Create the line making sure both coordinates are correct vs the paper drawing.? Create a line, using the 4 coordinate points you've just developed.
From then to the lowest right point, I've found it to use relative coordinates.? The start point for the next line is the ending point of the previous line.? The end coordinates for this line is the ending coordinates for this new line.
I like to end that line when I'm at the lowest point of the bottom line.? Use the same method to draw those lines.? When finished, select the ending points of both lines (should highlight both end point).? Select "join".? That will turn the whole set of lines into one polyline.
Try to assign a color to the shape.? If it fills then all points are joined and the color will flow into the shape.? If there is no color then the polygon is not closed.? That is, the junction of two points is close but they aren't joined.? There's a command to highlight open points but I don't recall it.? Easy to do.? When you find them, box the points and select "join".? The color should fill.? If not, look for the next opening and fix it as above. When you get them all joined, the color will fill.
As they say, rinse and repeat :-0
What you end up with is a file containing a full scale drawing that can be converted (if necessary) and drive the vinyl cutter.
It's been several years since I did any of this so I don't have any vinyl shops to recommend.? I do recall that several will accept an InkScape or other 2d drawing file directly.
Good luck,
John

I'm going to make some SV48 stickers that go on the front fenders. Should the light color of the sticker be white or a light yellow? Mine are currently light yellow but that might be from age.

Re: Brakes not working update
Hi Rick
?
Any time you would like to see it is fine with me. I am also retired and
around most of the time.
Mine is 48v and somewhat different than a C-Car. Batteries in mine are 4-6v
batteries in the front bumpers and 4-6v batteries in the rear bumper. I have
changed to solid state controller, with new main controller and new F/R
controller.
You can contact me at koaly@... and I could send some
pictures, if your interested. ?
