How about bringing back the tech section ..........engine / chassis / body/ electrical / tips and ideas
Couldn't agree more Phil..

Isn't like the car sections sort of a technical section, like discussion sections for 65-66, 67-78, 69-70 Are not they complete and mostly tech? If it is all grouped together wouldn't that make it harder to find something?
Could it be broken into sub categories
Body
Electrical
Engine
So on

So your thinking about having a mechanical section where all years, models and so on are organized together? Rather than how we have now with them broken out by year.
Guess this would include factory, modified, race and resto-mod sort of subjects all gather together within the separate engine, trans .... sections?
Just asking for others
Open 1968 or whatever year car
Then a drop down of subjects for that year of car appears
I for one don't think the change offers a substantial advantage over what we have now plus I doubt the moderators will want to police posts that are put in the wrong category.
my thought s are toward items that make cars better to drive or fix problem areas . general things that might help all years and not div 1 correct . we had this in saacforum 1 but it was lost .

Those are commendable asperations which do not have anything blocking posting such help items in a given year category now. Keep in mind that some help items can be year specific so a all year category may not fit all help items. A moderator with some hands on knowledge (of course with help from forum members) would be needed to sift out , add to or post in proper place so as to warn which year it applies to and which it does not . That is not a small task and would need to be done promptly each time so as not to cause problems for forum members.. This situation may pose more problems then help. Just some of my thoughts. A effort to promote the proper labelling of the subject line would better help in search efforts for a given help item IMO.
