All right lots of you have taken the time to look this new site over and share your thoughts and suggestions, very much appreciated. even the less positive views are useful.

Again I agree that this idea is not completely original or unique, to my thinking its success depends on the quality and number of the listing.

There are many clubs and enthusiast sites out there that could be possible sources of good listings. If any of you frequent some of these types of sites and care to share a link it would be helpful. Damn, I should have added this to the OP.

There are many collectors out there that shy away from E bay for various reasons and would only be interested in passing their baby on to other serious enthusiasts. Ones who will appreciate their special cars for what they are and aim to maintain and preserve them. These are the type of folks that Tom hopes to attract and serve.

Pelican is what it is because of the expert and knowledgeable members that contribute and are there to help any that need that help. the supportive community spirit.

At this early point in the development of the site the sources are mostly the usual high profile sites. How ever the more networking that can help to contact the best small restoration shops, Club groups etc. the sooner and better it can grow into the useful resource that it hopefully will become.

I think Tom is off to a good start, and know that all of your input will help to make it much better. Thanks!!

Cheers Richard
