Going to the auction site, it looks like a ghost town compared to days of old. Curious as to reasons why it hasn't come back to even a faint level of what it once was.

1. It's hard to maneuver thru.
2. It's hard to see what is even up for auction, with all the sold and unsold still being shown.

With the auctions ... there are alternatives. What I am very upset about is the destruction of the database. When I started coming here 10 years ago, there were 4 major pillars of this community: the club, the database, the auctions and the forum. Now we are done to one, the forum.

Another member posted a list of 1:24th scale FM and DM Mint cars. They are listed by: Year, Make, Model, Color, CODE & Date Issued. If you (1) find the model you're interested in by scrolling down the lists, (2) copy the CODE. (3) Come back here to the Car List & Reviews. (4) In the top search box, click open and select "MPN". (5) enter that CODE in the second search box and click 'search'. Some aren't complete and you may find all or portions of the pics and/or reviews missing; but some are still intact.
The two archived lists:
FM - http://www.coachbuilt.com/bui/f/franklin_mint/franklin_mint.htm
DM - http://www.coachbuilt.com/bui/d/danbury_mint/danbury_mint.htm

@perrone1 Tony: Why could those lists from the old site, be incorporated into this one so that they are easy to find. I have now bookmarked both of those, and hope that there are others for the the other makes as well.

Good question my friend and way beyond my current pay grade I'm afraid.
