Honest opinions please

Post by ModelTMitch » Sat Feb 17, 2024 1:09 am

Hi Everyone!

So my Model T website has been up for almost 13 years now, and accumulated a staggering 115,000 unique visitors in that time, for which I cannot express enough how grateful I am!
It's also been quite some time since I last gave the website an update. The home page in particular was getting rather tired and scruffy!
I'd be keen to hear some opinions on my website's new look:

Many thanks in advance :D

Also, if you haven't already, I'd be so grateful if you'd head over to my YouTube channel and subscribe if you haven't already :)

Thank you so much! :D

A blast from the past...

If you would revise your title to include the name of your Model T website, it would make it easier for members to find this thread in the future and, subsequently, the website address, in case they forgot it and need to find it. I have not visited it yet, but the pictures in your thread look very impressive and I will surely take a look when I have more time. Right now, I am signing off to start my work day. Jim Patrick

Looks great! Eventually I'll lurk through the links, I gotta wonder how in the world do or did you find the time to put all this together? Nice job!

Way to go, Mitch! I'm delighted to see you're still at it. I have often referred folks to your site when they asked how to start, drive, fix various things, and for Model T knowledge in general. I see your site and mine have similar pages (Buying Your First Model T, selling a T, etc.), and I expect we have similar opinions on those and other subjects. A site with an article on Dirk and Ttudy can't be all bad.. :)

Personally, I found your site over a year or so ago and have spent many hours there and on your YouTube channel! There's a wealth of information and I learned a ton.

My website pales into insignificance after seeing you back online mate! Glad to hear you are on the mend, still alive and kicking, that's great news indeed!
I hope your beloved Model T can be saved too, I honestly can't believe what happened, or how you escaped that with your life! Someone is definitely looking after you mate!
Welcome back to the community Steve :)

Thank you James for your encouraging kind words.
It's fantastic to see Steve is on the mend, and I hope his Model T can be repaired. Horrific crash though, I've seen the photos, it will take a lot of patience and dedication to bring her back to life. Here's hoping 🙂
