New concours forum

Post by **WebEditor** » Sat Jun 12, 2004 10:58 pm

During discussions at an MMOC committee meeting today, I suggested that we try the idea of having a forum especially for those interested in concours. This could be for existing competitors to exchange views, for those who are curious about concours to ask questions, and to encourage new people to take an interest.

So, over to you!

A good idea in princepal but do we have any posters on here that have concours cars as its not a subject that seems to come up, and the concours people I know are not on the net.

I assumed so far that the probability of having a concours car was inversely proportional to the time someone spends on a PC..

Having said that, members like Wile have some immaculate cars ;-)
Anyway - if we get concourse people on the site more often in future it will be very good as these guys must have learnt a heck of a lot over the years.

Agreed Ray but how to make them PC & web users is a different problem.

Agreed, and spoken as someone who spends a lot of time on here and on PCs in general! The state of my cars will confirm that!

I just thought I would say that so I have a reason to post in the Concours section.............

Cam,
I thought your MM was going to end up concours?
My black saloon was meant to be - it's a good job I waited 10 years before continuing the work on it, as I now know to start it all again!

Well that was (is) the plan, but I'll be doing it

and how long has your '58 been on the go???

Maybe in about 10-15 years time we can both post in here genuinely!!!

So, this is the place that we ask the questions like "How do we remove hubcaps without scratching the paint on the wheels?" and such, that have recently come up in conversation?

"How do we remove hubcaps without scratching the paint on the wheels?"

And also which is the correct shade of silver for the later rims etc

Yes Mr A, anything you like, but on this occasion I think your question has already been answered.
