Ok guys, just wondering if there are any sections you think we could add that might be helpful/useful... let's hear it!

I know we have a builds section but I thought it might also be helpful to have a frame build section! I used Don's frame build he posted on another forum when I built the frame on my current build. Opinions?!?

street legal race cars

there is new movement fastly gaining popularity, the idea is to find a old/retired nascar, sprint, modified, circle track, road racers & drag cars and turn them into street legal machines. there is two facebook thingies dedicated to this, we should get a thread section for these.

l have seen an old skool 60's digger, four sprint cars, 3 nascar trucks, 2 vintage troy moyer modifeds. single & two seat indy cars and so much more.

roadkill did this one::

What about a build section for stuff other than cars? I just semi restored a 1951 Farmall Cub, so I wondered about a tractor thread, or a trailer build thread.....or other miscellaneous builds? Just thoughts.....
 
I was thinking maybe other engine talk like SB Fords and Chevys. I was talking about converting a 302 from FI to carb but was hijacking a thread. There was no where to continue the talk. My .02. Jim
 
I count 41 sections and I see no reason to add more sections. You've covered nearly everything on wheels and I cant' imagine a new section gaining speed over any existing...

Agree.

An other build section could include trailers, boats, aircraft, even shops. I like the idea.

Agree, I think there's almost too many sections for the amount of daily member activity we have.

I don't see why anything someone is building can't fall into the build section :confused:

My thoughts exactly...There's a whole lot to choose from now, and some of the sections don't get much traffic. Any build can be featured in the "builds" section.

Trust me... I have a reason!

How about a off topic build section? Covers it all from tractors to boats to houses to whatever.

A few of the sections probably could be combined?
