    None yet. Some opelers have posted their buildups by starting threads
    in the individual model sections; GT, Manta, Ascona, Kadett or in the general discussion area.

    You can start a thread as Mark suggested in one of the forums. If you would like to keep it clean of other people's comments, you can start a second "comments" thread for people to post to and put a link to that in your signature. See my signature below for an example of both types of threads. Keith (opelspyder) has one going right now in that fashion where he posts to the main thread and people can comment in a separate thread.

    I think that you can use the logbook for that but it seems not to be working properly at this time.
    Needs a 2dr Ascona, everyone else has one.

    The Logbook is the best place to post and track your build. It is a personal "Blog" that each member has.

    JMO, but the new logbook entries are one of those things that I don't believe show up on the opening of opelgt.com "latest postings" and so I rarely ever go to them. Maybe if there was a window that showed new entries like we have for the 'Opel Groups".

    I wonder how many people use the "Popular Tags"
    feature? The print is too small for me to read so I wouldn't mind loosing it for a "new logbook entries" window on the opening page if space is needed.
