I was talking with Tom last night, to discuss this thread and and the comments that you all have made.

I had mentioned to him previously that some here thought his is too much of a knock off of BAT.

So he had done a comparison and had found that not a single listing on his site was to be found on BAT. So where the concept is similar, the focus and content are not at all the same. Nor is the font.

Also in my previous post I was bumbling on about the qualities that the users or community bring to a site like Pelican.
What I was trying to say is that the more collectors / enthusiast that find their way to this site, and the more they frequent it the better it can become.

There are buyers out there looking for just the right car as well as sellers looking for the right buyer. So the more popular this type of site becomes the better it can serve the niche its aiming for. In providing a meeting place for them to find each other.

Tom is placing adds in Hemmings, Classic Motor sports Mag. and others. And looking to contact clubs and marque groups in the hope of starting the networking that can help this site to reach and serve as many as possible. So any links to such groups are helpful.

A lot of pelicans live in the areas with a lot of car culture happenings are going on all the time. But others of us have to use the INTERNET and other resources to have access to what is going on in the hobby and what is available .

I enjoy perusing the classic car listings for entertainment and fun, even tho I am not looking to buy any thing right now. Plus its a good learning tool for when I might be able to start searching for a new toy.

Thanks again for your comments
