That is a great start, I can imagine all the engines that you will get before all that long and the site growing alongside your collection,.

That is a good start indeed, do not worry about it being your only engine though, once the forum effect kicks in you will have plenty to add to your site.

Tom, very nice job of pulling together your first website covering your first engine. Hardest part is starting one....from now on you just add, tweek and keep taking pictures and videos.
congrats on making that first hurdle.

Suppose you could do another TE1A but modify it a bit! Or look at spandrews in the homebuilt section!

That's a good start; really great photography. If you keep that standard up as you expand your collection then the site's headed to being one of the tops. Keep us posted on the updates

That's great stuff, and you made a good start where a lot of websites fall down at the first hurdle: the quality of your pics! Very tasty!

Nice, clean website. Websites are great for playing "show and tell" with like minded individuals!
Thanks for sharing!
