 I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people I don't like. |

Dunno, quite though,.. Could probably still do with more users, it only takes a few people to be busy and the board is real quiet. Sadly they've installed new web monitoring software at work so I can't be busy putting messages up on other boards and guestbooks until the evening.  |

I've been dropping in all day, but it was beginning to look a bit dodgy as I had all the 'last posted' entries.

hehe sounds like first week when I kept replying to everything straight away,.. then sat watching the board until someone replied to something,.. then I replied to that,.. for the casual observer it probably looked like I was talking to myself. hey checkm8 still trying to find an interesting car for you,... for my A-Z of 70's cars here  |

Know what you mean, I had six in a row last night when I left work!
There just hasn't be a lot of activity for the last two hours or so!

Its a little frustrating when there arn't many people around, but I guess we're still small,.. no mention in any magazines yet,.. first should be Retro Cars, whenever thats out, then hopefully Practical Classics, Then Practical Performance Classics. So numbers should pick up then.
Only groups with a really organsied online scene seem to be VW and Mini, Ford stuff tends to be really distributed with no real central forum.
Would be nice to get some of those crazy Germans on here,..

*steps out from the shadows*
I'm here! Been lurking for most of the day, I'm not on my regular machine.
Got some pics and links to put up later though!
I've been planning my next project - a T25 van, I need one for the show season and a planned holiday later in the year. Just trying to come up with that perfect Retro theme... I'm quite stuck on Orange and White at the moment, with lots of 70s orange plastic light fittings and such inside... Or 60s racer - lots of black and white check vinyl, black cabinets with chrome edgine and Smiths dials in the dash...
I'm planning on buying a panel van and building a custom interior, should be fun!

Or 60s racer - lots of black and white check vinyl, black cabinets with chrome edgine and Smiths dials in the dash... Good idea, I was thinking some sort of 'Race Support Vehicle' theme (like the Porsche split panel in last month's Volksworls) but more up-to-date, in keeping with the age of the van. Which got me thinking along the lines of Formula Vee paint schemes, One google search later and I found this one:  There's loads more out there! You could have race numbers on it too...25 of course! |

excellent! Why didn't I think of Formula Vee... I spent hours trawling websites for pics of 70s club racers... I'll stick my findings up at some point! Best photoshop I came up with was this:  |

I can only drop in a couple of times a week usually, but I enjoy this board especially. Here in Australia there is a very big message board for French cars www.aussiefrogs.com with over 2,000 members. It gets a little busy sometimes, once it had 110 members online at once. |
