Bill and Rich have inspired me to create a new section on the forum just for build threads. What do you think? Would anybody use it, or just these two be put in there? I plan to start a build thread for my Custom in there, since I did take a lot of photos of it when I was doing some of the heavy stuff top it. Let me know what you think, and if there is plenty of interest, I will go back through the forum, and move all of the threads pertaining to builds, such as Gasman's Custom 300, Rich's car, Blueblood's, and so on into that forum section, so that they will be easy to find and read for those interested. Post your comments below... :burnout:
Good plan. It is always interesting following someone else's build, plus it's a good place to pick up handy tips for your own build.
I think that is a great idea! I visit friends as they build a car I learn a lot, get ideas, sometimes help, and it is fun to watch the progress... be great to do it here. :003:

I have a build book that I put together back in 2004 and continuing on to present when major changes were made to the car. When I get some free time I will post it 4 photos at a time, unless there is any other kind of option for posting lots of photos or at least more than 4 at a time. I don't think the accident rehabilitation would be appropriate for this section, but if you want me to include some of the customizing photos I could include them, too.

Just pulling your chain Mister P, Soon I shall go on too and will rely on the boards expertise.All parts are nearly in the stable.
James go for it! Superb idea!
OK, here's what I will do. When everyone starts looking for their build thread, ie Bill and Rich, it will be in the new section. I will move it for your conveniences. Thanks for giving me the idea, Bill and Rich.
I like it...good move, James!
Yes, I like this very much as well. There are already build threads that I did not know existed. Thanks.
I think that's a great idea....I have a ton of pics, I just have to get around to downloading them. Maybe this will motivate me!
Just picked up my new running, std bore 427 guys..cannot wait to get it into the car and cranked.. when i get home, i will start on my build page, from the beginning, and work my way up to today...slowly of course, lol.
Doesn't get any better than a 427 in my mind. When I grew up they were king of the road. Looking forward to the build thread.
I was going thru Petew build thread in the General tech discussion are... his thread called"Rocker Panel" Replacement and beyond.. great build thread. very inspiring.
Yep...and Gary/Canadian Ranchero has one going in the engine swap section.
In my thread that James moved here, I'm going to add a link to my 4.6 install because that's a big part of my build thread. Sometimes these things just start out as one thing and just keep on expanding.
The build thread section is great, I'm hooked already, following all the builds. I know they were there before but having them in one easy to find section makes it so simple to drop in for a catch up.
57 imposter should probably bring his build over here also.

I will have to work on his. Its not in one thread. I will have to merge them into one threas then move them. I will get it though.
Can mine also be moved? Got a few update stories & pictures to add at some point. Thanks
