Thats a good idea Darren. Erwin, can we create a sort of "Cars offered for sale" registry or database that allows anyone knowing of a car for sale to post its details then perhaps if it sold and when and for how much ?
This would allow some tracking of cars that come and go for sale (like Rich griffiths red car) as many get advertised then dont necessarily sell thru , but get offered later (or by a different owner).sigpicPhil Lack

Or I can make a new forum just for this.

I think we need to keep everything somehow linked under this one Forum. Maybe a Classifieds listing will do this but remember sometimes the info posted will be copied form some other ad (ebay, Drive.com, etc) so the listing will be purely to record the existence of a car for sale so that it can be tracked.
perhaps the layout of the database for "Classifieds" could address this ?
We would also need to be able to delete sold items but retain listings where we wanted to maintain the info for future reference (possibly years later on ?).
I also checked on the old Yahoo site and the files with the VIN database info etc are no longer there.
I am sure someone backed these up prior to use leaving this site.
Dont know if it was Justin or maybe Hugh who kept the records ??
I thought I had a copy but its only an early listing, not the last recorded data.sigpicPhil Lack

i agree that a list of all the cars that come thru the market and what happened to them, a photo etc might be good. however there are issues of accuracy and privacy to maintain as well.
It would be best maintained on an excel speadsheet / datatbase type file however I cant see that working with unfettered access. if you are a seler of one of those cars there might be an incentive to "clean up" the data - say to not show it had changed hands 4 times in 2 years or somthing suggesting there might be a problem.If that was possible it would destroy the integrety and the use of the resourceHugh Hodges
