At club NARP there was a "restoration forum" that could have been REALLY helpful. It would be nice if we could get them all together in one forum here. I know that there are LOTS here, and all have something different to add. It would help a lot of people that are in the process of restoring a car to easily get information from members who have already gone through it and know how its done. I will gladly take the time to compile a list of all of the restoration threads here if we can get a new forum going for it. Admin?? Admin?? Are you out there?

I really like the idea of organizing all the great info on this site somehow to make it a little easier to sift through. Classic Threads is a great feature, but they are only a tiny sliver of what lies hiding in the archives. The Search feature works okay, but it's often a lot of work to find what you really need.
The idea of "restoration" as a theme sounds interesting. I like the idea of defining restoration as broadly as possible, though. Like pretty much any time you start digging into the car with the hope of making it better, as opposed to just repairing or replacing an item, or doing diagnosis and tuning. Some On another tack, since the admins don't have anything better to work on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif) , I wonder if its possible to replace the search engine with something like google (that ranks hits by popularity) or some way to let people vote for threads that are useful/interesting. That way all of the good stuff in the archives could work its way to the top. |
