Out of curiosity, does anyone else here run a blog for their car repair exploits? I started one so I could document everything I've done and plan to do, and I wanted to see if anyone else was doing the same.

I had one, it was www.whycantibreakthisberkleyingnutoffijustwanttobustthisnut.com 

 

But the work filter intercepted it in the porn filter, so I abandoned it.

Check out the "builds and project cars" section for some cool build logs, there's a lot people on here doing a LOT of really cool stuff.

I started one when I bought my Alfa:  https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/1985-alfa-romeo-gtv6-my-first-alfa/64143/page1/

 

Mazdeuce has one on here where he gets handed a $57,000 repair bill from Mercedes to fix his AMG:  https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/r63-amg-the-unicorn-of-my-destruction/110824/page1/

Another favorite of mine is Mezzanine's X1/9 thread:  https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/77-fiat-x19-this-is-all-your-fault-grm/88562/page1/

it's currently "in work" and things are escalating pretty quick.

You can add any threads you want to follow on GRM to your "watch list" for quick reference or post a comment and then they'll appear in your "your posts" list (you can find that if you scroll up and click on the "jump to" menu (top right)

I'm a huge sucker for GT40's too, and dream of one day building my own from scratch.  It all started with Russ Noble's build on GT40s.com  https://www.gt40s.com/threads/kiwi-scratchbuilt.16138/
 

The guy who bought my '66 Impala has a blog site for his '67 Venator build that you might like.  http://www.venatorimpala.com/
