Plus 1 on the drop down menu's at the top

I really got into following the Peking to Paris Rally when Chris Bury and his father built a car for the rally.

Just stopped by the site not logged in to see what's up. Clicked on the "1hour ago" link, took me to the first post in an 18 reply thread, clicked on the "18 replies", took me to the first post in an 18 reply thread. This is most likely the major factor in the big drop off in activity. You can see from the main page that most people don't stay logged in. There's only five signed in right now. But 135 others (don't really know what that last one means) who also can't easily get to the new stuff. Just trying to help. You can try to change the behavior of the masses or you can make the site easier to use for them. Carry on...

I have done mine although my door hardware is not complete yet. But they are very nice and soft and latch like factory weatherstrips

I'm not a huge fan of the left menu, either. The top drop-downs seem to be the defacto standard for websites.

The left panel takes up about a quarter of my window view. While it offers easy access to forum feature links, I'm not sure how often I'd use it. Soooo, most of the time, it's just in the way. Maybe dropdown menus would be worth considering.

I don't care for it. I think it was better at the top. But that's just me. I am thankful that the statistics panel at the right is gone. I assume that info is available by some "thread stats" button somewhere. So the aspiring young nerds who really like that kind of stuff can still find it if they want to.

Thanks for all you do Mike. My Z and I would be lost without this forum. And I get the fact that this forum is competing for eyeballs with other social media sites like FB. I think you are right about the strengths here. The expertise and knowledge about the classic Z's is top notch. The trick is how to leverage that strength in a way to attract new users without alienating the existing ones. I hope you come up with the magic sauce that pays the bills. I'm on (mostly lurk) a couple of the FB groups, and occasionally ClassicZ will get mentioned as a source for expertise or info. I'm not sure if that get's people to actually JOIN or not, but it certainly can't hurt. I agree. Let's just hope that we can figure out a way for everyone to be satisfied!!

The wireless bras need recharging.

By the way, for those following HS30 00004 auction link is: https://burnsandco.hibid.com/lot/224051982/1969-datsun-240z-build-no-4?ref=catalog High Bid: 76,250.00 AUD and at the same time HS30 00060 is up for auction too: High Bid: 51,500.00 AUD https://burnsandco.hibid.com/lot/224052091/1970-datsun-240z-build-no-60?ref=catalog

On an impressive banked display ( no doubt evoking Fuji Speedway ) with a banner reading '69 NIPPON GP WINNER NISSAN R382 AND NISSAN SPORTY CARS', were that very R382, the '69 East African Safari Rally winning 510 Bluebird, the '69 Japan GP Touring Car race winning PGC10 Skyline GT-R, and a blue 'HLS30' variant 'Datsun 240Z', wearing number plates that read "Fairlady Z Export Version":

Displayed on a rotating circular platform right outside Nissan's main booth, an orange PS30 'Fairlady Z432' attracted a lot of attention, and certainly had the wow factor:
