There are plenty of OTHER sections for showing off your car. But here is a friendly place where you can simply come and introduce yourself in general. (Tip: Put some unique identifier about your car in your title.)

This section is meant allow members to document progress on their specific projects. Please use this section mainly as a diary of what you've recently done. Please put all other general/technical questions in their corresponding categories.

Perhaps the best parts of the experience of owning a Sterling (or any of its kin) are the stories and adventures that these cars generate. This section is meant as a purely fun forum for sharing your best stories.

Sub-Forums: Rock Star moments, Most absurd estimates (of price and speed), Limbo contest: Lowest thing you've ever driven/parked under., The driving experience: most and least favorite aspects, Run-ins with the law!, Problems getting it up? (Has your canopy ever failed?), Accidents/Close calls, Car Show announcements and-or synopsies, Other Stories, (Suggestions for other story categories)

This is the catch-all category for any general topic that just doesn't seem to fit anywhere else. Virtually all topics related to our hobbies are welcome here. (Tip: If you have a technical/design question or comment, please try to find a category in the Main Forum/Technical Discussion section.)

Huge collection of video clips of Novas, Sterlings, and all of their derivatives.

"Electrical" is a difficult category because it overlaps with so many other categories (eg. engine electrical, vs dash electrical, vs canopy electrical, etc.) This section is for all electrical issues that don't fit well in those other categories.

Ours cars aren't much use to us until we get them titled and inspected. Discuss your experiences and adventures/misadventures here.

This is a catch-all category for any other technical, trouble-shooting, design, or fabrication issues that just can't seem to find a home in any of the other categories.
