^added it to the registry myself but I figured I'd post it anyway.
I'm glad you're running with this... for reference this is the 240sx convertible database I was talking about
http://www.az-zbum.com/cgi-bin/vertowner.pl
it might be handy to set up something similar where people can enter their own data, and have things set by drop down box... it might not be a bad idea to include options for "lifted" or a check box for "modified" with a text field with included mods so we can see how many are all original and how many have been modified.
The 240 registry has the vins out in the open but you could collect them in full and simply hid them from public view, along with any other information people might want to keep private.
that registry started just like this one though... people posting their info in a forum and having it collected manually. They started a little under a year ago IIRC and they have a few hundred in the database. this seems like a much tighter community so I would think we could surpass them easily.
----------------
Other cool stuff you can do with this
-Create a stats page pointing out what the average, highest, and lowest, mileage is, % operational, totaled, salvaged, etc, which state has the highest and lowest VX population, etc.
-Create a world map with dots representing the location of VX owners so we can see where high concentrations are and where low concentrations are etc.
-track owner history, by finding duplicate vins.
there's lots of cool stuff you can do with the data.

The Land Rover community does this. I once drove my '72 88" SWB (Short Wheel Base) from Georgia to Kansas for a school. Before I got to K.C. I broke a manifold bolt to the first pipe and the lack of back pressure impeded my top speed. I had already plotted my route with all the Land Rover owners offering any assistance needed from the Oily Rag? site, and I was able to call a nice family with 3 Defenders! in K.C. They took me in for the day and we repaired the beast and swapped stories. Same thing happened when I drove my '65 109" Station Wagon from Fairbanks, AK to Georgia; we stopped in Canada and Colorado for some maintenance assistance.
Likewise when I did live in Fairbanks, I harbored two sets of travelers on their Land Rover journeys to the Arctic Circle. Both stayed at our house going up, then coming back. The one guy (traveling with his dog in his Defender 90, actually planned his trip to Alaska, as opposed to other alternatives, after knowing that I had offered my services). If you didn't want to be that "cozy" with your services though, just knowing where friendly garages with tools are enroute on your journey is a great VX family multiplier.
I'm driving cross-country in my VX between December and January, and half-way back in April. It would be nice to know where the VX caretakers are on my trip, as it may be the only time I would ever be able to meet them in person. ...The same reason I want to organize a Central-California mini-meet before I move. I'll likely never get the chance again.
You can query the member lists on this site by state, and whether they are active users of the forum, but a map would be of great benefit. Just my opinion.
if you just wanted to create a map of members without correlating who owns what vehicle that would be simple enough to do. I manage a member map for one of the other forums I belong too... it's quite simple to setup and allow members to add themselves to the map, you can be as exact (proper location of your home) or inexact (point in the downtown area of your city) as you like, you can setup custom icons too...
I can start one for here if you like...
EDIT: I started one: http://www.vehicross.info/forums/sho...d.php?p=133655
Thanks guys! I actually have a member map in the works for the site the registry is on... I'm just waiting for a certain security update for what I am going to use. It does use google maps.
As for all that other info, graphs, charts and such from the database... I'll be working on that when I have a lot more time... I've just been barely sqeezing in the time during lunch and break hours at work to keep up...
Cool...
I do a lot of database and php/ajax stuff... let me know if there is anything I can do to help :cool:
I just might have you help me out.. because I suck at that stuff! LoL. I'm still learning... but very very slowly... :(Quote:
