This looks like the appropriate place to make some suggestions. I hope these are take in the constructive spirit like I intended. smile

There's a lot of topics that could be in the Research area (seatbelt colors, other codes on the cowl tags, 67 seat belt clips, etc). Could it be changed so a topic could be suggested/entered via the forum and await your approval? This is dependent on the forum software being able to handle that.

Obviously the Tech Help is the most popular forum, by far. But the questions in Tech Help vary a lot: engine, options, restoration, etc.

What about breaking the Tech Help into a few forums (but not child forums, those tend to get buried)? I don't know what, but something like:
General
Drivetrain (engine, trans, axle)
Originality / Restoring
Maintenance

Lastly, can this forum software do a 'preview when mouse hovers'? It shows the first lines of the topic by just putting your mouse over the topic, you don't have to click on it. It's a handy feature.

Thanks!

I agree with with Vikki. Her site has about every topic covered in a separate forum. I haven't had to use it but it would make things easier to to find.

Never saw the post. I will be holding off on this as the board software is about ready to be upgraded with new features. I want to see what it offers and go from there. I have read it will the mouse over you asked about. Will need to wait and see but sounds like the software is very close to final release.
