New Milestone Approaching For CMF
« on: October 19, 2022, 08:24:05 PM »
Sure most members do not follow the data but we are less than 25 members away from reaching 6,000 members a new milestone for us. From where we began and with the expectation that their would not be very many interested in diving into the deep, deep details we cover here, we have grown beyond our wildest dreams. The results, both number of members and the ten-fold plus number of lurkers we see, have taught us that there are allot more than originally expected.

On behalf of Charles and myself I want to take this opportunity to thank all of those that made this site possible and that have and continue to support our mission.

Thank you one and all!!!


Earlier today I wondered what the first post was on the site way back on July 11, 2009 at 11:32:55 AM?

It was a single word - Welcome

Now back to the focus, documentation, sharing and learning we're here for  :)

I don't now know what GOOGLE keyword search that I used to have ConcoursMustang.com come up but I am very happy to have found you all. I believe I joined in 2014. I lurked for only a few visits.

There is no way I could have restored my car to a Concours Gold winner without all of the help form all the contributors. I've met several really good friends from here as well, some from other continents around the globe!

Thank you all!

Back near the beginning I was in the midst of consuming discussion after discussion in the concours area of VMF when Jeff informed me of this brand new site, so I joined right away.  It certainly has been an amazing ride.  Thanks for all of the help!

Jeff and Charles. We should be thanking the two of you,  not you thanking us!  I can certainly remember the time when many of us were an island in a sea of difficult to obtain and often incorrect information.  You two have made the restoration of Mustangs much easier and far more accurate than it was pre-CMF .  A since THANK YOU to both of you in behalf of the Mustang community.

I agree with Murf, we should be thanking Jeff and Charles!  The knowledge on here is top notch!  Everyone is more than happy to help out.  There may be a few, only a few, lol, disagreements from time to time, but all in all we are throwing out our good two cents for those that will listen!

I was just going to do a NPD catalog restoration and just wing it.
Then I found this place.

Now I'm doing it right, but the amount of time it takes and the details required is astounding. I love the outcome so far but hate the amount of time it takes!

Thanks!

Thanks jeff and charles and good seeing u both at our french lick concours show. The lift company asked if they could come back again next year. I talked a big mopar collector  that i know who came to our show into buying the lift we used at the show this year and every year the lifts were sold after the show. I think people really see the advantages of having a car on a lift to really see every detail on a car especially the whole undercarrage as there is always a crowd around the lift area.
