gerry: Thanks to a nice Rennlister I have a Carrera tail on the way as I write this. Now if can find a chin spoiler I'll be in business. I really appreciate your recommendations, thank you!

Just follow the steps. Careful who you purchase from, there has been more than one scammer there. Make sure they aren't a newbie who signed up 2 days before and has 3 posts.
Doug,
Don't worry. I have been a member there as long as I have been one here. I hardly post there. It's just got more volume that's all, better for classifieds and searching out bizarre threads. I have my own opinions about pelican but I will keep those to myself or to PM.

As to the volume, sure there are some bizarre threads, but what's different over here?
There is a wealth of knowledge over there too. Maybe not all to the level of Pete, but Steve Weiner posts there a bit, and guys like Grady Clay and John Walker have forgotten more things than any of us will ever know. Don't ever shortchange or dismiss Pelican as non-relevant. If you ever get into an engine rebuild, the engine build section has a lot of talent that can help you over speed bumps.

I beg to disagree. First of all, Pelican isn't a haven for scammers. They may try to get in there due to the number of potential buyers, but they get weeded out in short order. There is a pretty good group of regular buyers and sellers. Great advice though on looking out for new members selling.

By bizarre I meant some very specific technical issue, 45 page oil thread for example. If you search it on pelican you will find a previous thread on it and get an answer. I am not short changing or dismissing pelican as non-relevant. I use it on a daily basis. It's a great technical resource.
I hope I am better understood now, my apologies for anything I said that may have been misinterpreted.

You mean kind of like this thread: Oil Thread on Rennlist?
When you are discussing oil (kind of like politics.. religion .. . sex etc) most can go on and on and on and on. I never anticipated that thread to get so huge but I guess where there is pentup demand, you get things like that.
