We are super happy with how great this community has grown in such a short time and with no drama.

A lot of members have been asking us to do a classifieds section, and we wanted to hear your thoughts on what you'd like to see.

Thank you,
PTA Staff

How should we lay it out?

Any ideas?

Thank you,
PTA Staff

By year, model and/or generation?

Parts listing the same way?

Like the others have said, a Generational Style main menu to start.

Once you started getting an influx of ads, switch it to a year by year listing.

Also a separate area for parts with major headings like "Engine/Transmission, Suspension, Body, Interior, etc."

How about we do this layout in each category?
  • Body
  • Engine
  • Interior
  • Trans
  • Wheels

What does everything think about that?

It keeps it simple and sums it up.

Thank you,
PTA Staff

I like that.

Keep it simple.

Great work!

These classifieds will SURELY assist us PMD F-Body fanatics to keep our classic cars rolling.

Listing spare parts may free up garage space while making someone's search successful.

An interchange of parts from compatible year models will also help.

My '67 convertible has a '69 Formula hood that is sweet and bolted perfectly!

Gday mates!

The classified section should be a "must have" to keep these birds in good shape.

Please set it up by generation--- if "GM"--- won't support us with parts-- it's up to us!

Too many aftermarket parts that are not close enuff.
