Default Rods car new rebuild thread ?

I'm going to have an extensive read through rods Facebook page, I was thinking a great way to start my thread would be to start where rod started with the latest build of the car, i could relay the information and pictures from facebook onto here, that way the history and photos is never lost if the Facebook page ever gets took down, I've already got all the info off rods website filed away
I know it's not my work but none of the build is documented on here and I'm thinking it should be
I can then add to it as time goes by what happens with the car and the figures

What do you guys think good idea or too much ?

indeed it is a good idea as on here anyone can access the thread almost like having a hard copy and it will get a google linked no doubt, where as on facebook although busier it will be lost over time and only visible to those able to find it

Awesome. I will be rebuilding my website at some point so it will be great to have access to all the old info.
