It is on the to do list for this year, so keep your eyes open for it.

Fantastic! My eyes will be peeled and I thank our guru members that are able and willing to do this. And thanks to the many members that just constantly post up good stuff for the benefit of all . That certainly includes the Corvette Babes section!

Well...now we are right back to my post #3 above where I suggested I would collect and organize all my subscribed threads for the re-assembly of the Z

All those threads have Jeffvette and other key individuals involved somehow so you can imagine if Jeffvette and others have to do this all over again

That is the reason I NEVER started new threads because all the information was there in old threads and any unanswered questions I had or explanations I needed for my own clarity related to an old thread was most appropriately tied directly to that thread. Some of those threads go back before 2006.

Thus building on what was already there

I will volunteer to go over all the posts of the Corvette Babes section and make comments or otherwise organize as you like

Yes, I am well aware of my original idea.

However despite your enthusiasm for the idea, things did not turn out the way I had hoped. I knew you could be counted upon, but unlike you, some others who said they would contribute did not follow through.
So the new plan will not be as grandiose in scale, but over time it might grow into a nice section.
So start looking up some of the previous helpful threads you will contribute and get them ready to be transfered.

Ha....Oh...well....I have 25 more or less helpful threads I have subscribed to and most if not all involve Jeffvette

I have a solution to a slow server but it is not appropriate to mention here

It took me one hour to show what tools I used to make removal of existing exhaust system easy this morning and half that time to actually install SW headers and exhaust

I understand and perhaps I wasn't clear in my post but I wouldn't expect he and others to have to do so all over again. I was really only throwing out my support for stickys related to our most often visited projects or topics. The new A-Z section works as well for me. Hopefully these would be "stckylike" threads in which future Q & A posts could build on once established.

And I appreciate that you have done so rather than starting a new threads as I get to benefit from your post and revisit the previous related posts that got us there. I just think it would be beneficial if some of these threads qualifying as "often visited projects" stayed at the top as a sticky.... or in an A-Z section - I'm easy. I think fewer people would start new threads (that often times ask the same questions) if that was the case.
