Model A Clutche and Tranmission Used on Fronty Ford Racing Cars in 1929
We have started to reproduce the Fronty Ford catalog from 1929 that you are sure to find interesting on The Old Motor. |

Why don't you share some of your machine shop knowledge instead of constantly pushing your website here?

The last time you brought this up, almost everyone thought our posts would be OK as long as we did not put a hyper-link in the text to our website. We have done that but we do have a link in our signature just as you do for your website and many others here do. We are trying to do this by sharing our materials with everyone. We do not work on Models A Fords in the shop very often so we do not want to risk of offending anyone by posting non Model A related posts here. Would the other Ford barn members please let us know if you like our posts? Or if our posts are offensive to you? Best Regards to all, David Greenlees |

David,
Keep posting. All of your posts that I've seen are on topic and interesting. I have enjoyed the photos and have no problem with your identifying your site in your signature--I do the same. Joe

I enjoy your post and your website--what I do not enjoy is self appointed web "police", especially when they have a link to their own blogsite.

Re: Model A Clutche and Tranmission Used on Fronty Ford Racing Cars in 1929
Website promotion without regular participation sometimes comes across as spam. Sometimes... not always... That's a fact that advertisers have to live with.
Fortunately, there is a simple solution. Participate in other ways. Post your thoughts on other topics. Be a part of other conversations. For instance, post machine shop solutions to questions that arise on the board, as Luke suggested. That removes any suspicion of alterior motives. Personally, I like the Old Motor. I put a link on my desktop so I can look at it every day.

David, Don't stop! Pay no heed to the critics. Your posts are pithy. The most unusual information and pictures are the ones you come up with. If I see a t-head posting I automatically click on it. Your stuff is the best! We should all be able to enjoy it . Keep up the good work. Thanks.

I love The Old Motor .com I can't imagine any gearhead that would be critical of it. Some people are just always in a bad mood or fussing at others because they are loosing their grip.

I enjoy anything to do with old cars. You have access to a multitude of pictures and I enjoy them. No need here to attack anyone; we all have a common interest.

Anyone that wishes to bitch and complain about The Old Motor website needs their head examined or find another hobby. Every time you post something here David it is Ford related, if that opens the door to better cars in the hobby so be it. Bob Swanson

Re: Model A Clutche and Tranmission Used on Fronty Ford Racing Cars in 1929
I'm not bitching about anything nor am I attacking anyone. Secondly I don't see how posting photos of a car in daily use from back in the day is going to produce better cars in the hobby today.
I was merely suggesting some machine work pointers and contributing more to the forum than just coming here to post pics in effort to draw visitors to his site and never adding anything else but for his own personal gain regardless if the site is "non profit" or not does strike me odd. And to the prior poster who commented on my blog address in my signature. That blog has been inactive since last June with no plans to do much with it in the future. That being said I don't post here for the sole reason of getting traffic to my site. No where did I attack anyone. I was merely suggesting contributing more to the forum instead of just dropping a pic here now and then and disappearing until the next photo gets posted. This is one drawback of the internet- no way to convey vocal tones and someone always gets their knickers in a wad. |
