The Ford Barn

Stretch Cab · 09-10-2017, 07:23 PM

As I sit the day away wishing Irma would hurry and pass I have been thinking of an addition to this site that I would really enjoy seeing. Over on the AACA site they have a Forum where you can keep an ongoing update of your project build. I think this would be great for Ford Barn too. It would not have to be model sensitive but could include all the breakdowns that we have now all rolled into one.

I do not believe it would take away from the site as it would not be for questions or comments but a place to show what you are working on. Check out the AACA forum of Restorations and projects and see what you think.

I've been on other forums for more modern stuff that does this. Can be interesting seeing peoples progress. I think of it as on online photo album.

Yes and a great inspiration too!

One could also start a thread here, and just keep updating that one thread. Unless there is some limit to the thread size.

Maybe one could use a special keyword in the thread title to aid in searching for similar threads.

This is kind of what I did. Whenever I complete a small project I add to my post.

Its called a 'build thread'... pretty common on other car sites
