Bodywork and Paint forum needed!
The Corvette Forum absolutely, positively needs a "Body and Paint" forum.
It should be included under the "General Corvette" Community.
Bodywork and paint postings are spread out in various forums and this is not efficient at all. People are not getting the help they need.

One thing that really bugs me is that I see a lot of bad and uninformed advice given on bodywork/paint issues.
If we had a bodywork/paint forum topic, I think that some of the more informed and some pros would hang out there and set the issue straight if someone were to give bad advice.

The results are overwhelmingly in favor of a Bodywork/Paint forum.
The members have spoken.

I didn't run this in the C6 forum as I figured there wouldn't be many bodywork and paint do-it-yourselfers there.

I think the majority of members would like to see it happen.

If you see posts that should be in that forum, let the moderator know and he will move it.
