See You Down The Road

After many years serving the classic car community, Wisconsin Collector Car will be shutting down at the end of 2024. Thank you for all of the car show memories!

    That’s what I do. I run through my email and the sites a couple times a day and see what I missed. I’ve decided to send out a mass email (which will go to everyone) telling them about this feature and asking them to reply whether or not they want me to activate it for them.

    Be careful how you use that button, it can be construed as spam nad all it takes is one person to report it as spam to your host. If you want to set up a amiling list create a new open group that users can subscribe to.

    @prostreet, Hello from Wilkes-Barre. wave.gif

    That’s a good point coalman. What would happen if someone reported that as spam to the host? Would the forum be shut down or something? Once I create the usergroup and move users into it how do I email everyone in that group? Just use the mass email feature and select only that group?

    Hi Gar
    A friend of mine Don (19chevelle69) just created me a page on my web site and he Dubbed it SWAP MEET wich is a great name and might give folks the right idea .

    Sounds like a good idea. Simple enough and is general to encompass everything.

    I think that pretty much covers it. Hopefully we’ll see more action in that forum too! Do you think I should change the name to something so people could request sell vehicles as well?
    Got any good name ideas?

    Hi Mopar
    Very good point , I guess I did not think of the fact some one would be unsatisfied what they would do . But we know disclaimers are only as good as the paper they are writen on . If that was the case heck some could come back on me for disagreeing with you and possibley hold Garibaldi responsible . Were would it end right . I would look in your local Auto trader and see what they do to keep themselves protected. Or maybe play it safe and consult an attorney .

    I’ll look into it. I know a guy at VH who is a legal expert, I’ve already asked him about it, I’m just awaiting a response. I doubt that there would be that many issues with it as long as its just a place to find parts.

    Hi Folks
    That is a good subject . Wether there are legal imploments for selling parts of your site .
    Know in my case with my site I am selling my self w00t.gif boy is that a bad thing? icon_eek.gif Anyways what would be wrong with selling some parts . Im sure if we left it up to the law makers there would be a list so long it would take up a good size hard drive. Myself I plan to sell , heck I believe thats what i might be in busness for . I think if you are hooking up Joe 1 with Joe 2 for parts they need what could be wrong with that . If I told a friend I saw a front bumper on line in another site wouldn’t that be the same thing. Now there might be a sales tax issue but if your in one state and he or she is in another you are not obligated to collect the tax from or for the other state . now sooner or later you have to figure on claiming your income no matter how small . But it is up to you to decide how to handle that . I meen your last name isn’t ebay right . :D

    Right. The thing is I have an official disclaimer in the Parts For Trade section that specifically states that this site is only for matching people up who have the parts. Do you think it would be even better if I made it so people could actually make their transactions on here as well? Obviously this would probably require a liscense of somekind.

    the only thing I’m concerned with is if there would be legal issues by allowing my site to traffic the sale of parts??

    Every other car forum site I belong to has a classified section, and I am regestered on at least 20 different car and truck sites (and no I don’t read them all daily, there is only about 5 I frequent every day). I am not saying that makes it right or anything. Just giving you some facts to help you decide! thumbsup.gif

    Thanks Mopardude! Actually I’ve already started the Parts For Trade forum, and to be safe I’ve specified in the forum that it is only for people to find eachother, no financial transactions will take place on the site (right now at least, who knows in the future icon_wink.gif). Is this one of the sites you frequent every day? icon_cheesygrin.gif

    Yes it is. Most of the sites I visit not to many locals.

    Do you think any of the users on the other forums would be interested in this site as well? Like you said this is kind of unique in that it is a local-based site too.
