Blogging my project
So in an effort to keep myself motivated as I stare at this pile of parts I've finally created. I've created a weblog of my efforts:
http://rons55ford.blogspot.com
It documents the past ten years of relative inactivity on my project and my enthusiasm towards the future. Not a lot of pictures YET, but as we start making some real progress there will be plenty. So drop by and take a look from time to time. If you have a resto site you are working on, I always enjoy taking a look at what others are doing.

This is the 2nd time in 2 day sand the 2nd time ever I've heard about "Blogging"
What is it, where did it start and how long has it been around?

"Blogging" is putting an online diary on the web. It came from "web log". People do it to document all kinds of stuff...pets, marriage, kids, you name it.
It has been around as long as the net. Even before people could easily post pictures, they did blogs as text file diaries.
Some of the most useful "blogs" out there are the car restoration guys who document their projects step by step, even including mistakes they made in some cases. Saves huge amounts of trouble. George Hartmann's "Earl" website is a great example. http://www.clubfte.com/users/earl/

Blogging is pretty cool. I'm hoping it will help to keep me motivated on my project to know that there might be someone else out there waiting for an update or can make use of some of the pics I'll be taking. There's some really cool resto sites out there. Send me an email and I'll send a few links your way.

Sharing more of the ones you've found is a great idea.
When I get home from work I'll post a new thread with all the ones I've got so far that will hopefully generate a bunch of submissions from other guys.
