A few 4x4 Forums i'm a member of (I own a Jeep, but not for long) have build threads. Basically it's one long thread that they keep updating as they build their vehicles. All modifications from start to finish are shown in one thread and it makes it easy to view what they've done through time. Most of them have a sub-forum called, "Member's Rigs." We could do something similar like "Member's Stangs." If this is already done somewhere, they sorry. I don't venture out of the 2005 forum very much.
If you look at what paint-boy did with this thread:
http://forums.bradbarnett.net/index.php?sh...c=25477&hl=boyd
It would be similar, only including all mods. Anyone think it's a good idea?

I feel no one would look in there who isnt actually building and there is a wealth of info out there from people who have been there and done that who wouldnt ordinarilly look into that sub folder. Sooo you wouldnt get the feedback your looking for...? Is that the experience over in your 4x4 thread? Here everyone chimes in. Whats the reply ratio compared with over here?

I like his idea. There are so many people and so many cars....it's hard to keep track of them all and all of the mods they have done to the car. I did mine that way....and reading thru the posts sure seemed like everyone liked it that way?

Instead of starting new threads for your new wheels, air intake, window tint, cd player, lowering springs, etc. They would all be in one thread. You can still post stuff in the normal forums, but if you see someone's car you really like, you can look at their build thread to get ideas and feedback before future purchases. They are pretty popular and alot of people ask questions about thier own rig in their thread if they are unsure about what they are doing. It's just a thought. If it's not a good idea, no hurt feelings.

I think it would be a great idea for members to start one thread about their car and keep going with it, instead of creating a new thread. I see people do that on a reef forum i frequent quite a bit.
The problem is, getting people to do this. Also, I dont know if it would constitute a whole other sub-forum, if enough people did it, we could create one and move them into it. For now, they could create it under the main 2005+ forum and we could see how it goes from there.

I vote for it. I haven't been following the thread on the Stang of the Month idea, but part of me thinks these two ideas could tie together. If we go through with the Stang of the Month idea, voters could go to the build thread for that car to view all the details about it to help make up their mind.

isnt there a "my S197" section already? wouldnt that be the ideal place for it (at least for 05s)
cuz i like the idea of one thread for someone build project, seeing as i made one lol. its a good way to update anyone whos interested and get feedback
for all of us w/o 05s, i say just put em in their respective folders dont really need another subsection IMO

good luck at getting people to do this. After all, I should know from all the posts I move around Day 1, someone posts, I might buy this car.... Day 2, new topic, I put a deposit down, later that day, new topic, I get the car tomorrow, day 3 new topic - I got the car, later that day, new topic - here are some pics. I see this all the time, and even though I politely ask that instead of created a new topic each time they should just add to their first topic, my words are ignored.
In a perfect world this idea would be great, but we all know nothing is perfect, not even me

Maybe "sub-forum" was the wrong term. I was thinking along the lines of:
2005+ Mustang => My s197 => Mustang Builds
Something along those lines.
Either way, once mine arrives all my mods are going into one thread. Hopefully I can start a trend. And there is nothing anyone can do about it. Unless adrenalin gets move happy and keeps moving my thread so I can't find it :nono: or I get banned :bang: or it keeps getting deleted or you edit my posts or anything else that I can't think of right now that would sabotage my efforts. Other than that, i'll be unstoppable

Sorry, I was unaware that ThreadEx had multiple employees. Are you traded publicly? I might be interested in buying some stock as I see you are kept mighty busy.
