For my two cents worth:
May I suggest that at some point a complete archive of all the messages posted in one twelve month period be made for future historical reference.
This board is a photograph of the mid-nineties Model A enthusiast, including all of the problems, the prejudices, (hot rod vs. restoration) the controversial,(including our reactions to "$6 to $6,000") parts available, details, phylosophy, and a miraid of other topics reflecting our devotion to our 70 year old automobiles.
A board of this sort would be very different in the Nineteen-Fifties and will be very different again at the Centenial of the Model A & beyond.When we lost the board temporarily last month, it was devastating, and upon reflection, I believe this board to be an Historical document worthy of preservation.
Think about it.
