AeroSigma:
I'd be very interested to see such a spreadsheet.

Kiwimagic:
Did the spread sheet for parts happen or is it still a work in progress.

blueamber:
The idea was to have folks easily submit data for items bought, part numbers, where bought, price, comments about fit, etc.  A spreadsheet of some kind ( or doc with search capability, table of contents) would be created and maintained.

However, making the data available is beyond the capability of this forum, I don't see the ability to store a data file.

Rocketman:
I could host it on the main page with the other information, but our server does not have a whole lot of space to play with. We're on an ancient hosting plan, it's sufficient and cheap enough. I have looked into moving hosts in the past and it's an ordeal. A spreadsheet should work though.

A Google Spreadsheet might work, that's hosted in the cloud.

A few years ago I had the idea to make a Capri Wiki page, with Bubbagumpshrimp as the webmaster. We had a prototype page running on a test server, but didn't flesh it out much. He's since sold his Capri and his life got busy, not active here anymore.
There are a few communities that have wikis made up for their classic cars. They cover such things as production stats, known/common issues & repairs, and parts sourcing.
I feel like that would be a great benefit to the community, however, it seems very few can be arsed to go outside of asking on Facebook to look for any information.

Something like a wiki would be a community effort and take a good deal of time to get running. I will look into it again, perhaps there's an easier solution out there today.

Would be great. You're one of the few people who cares with the expertise to pull something like that off.

Thanks, Jack Byrd
