I'm relatively new to all this, but I think it is incredibly cool that folks like Barry, Galen, and many others all have gathered a lot of "data" as well as physical items over the years (either as a hobby or as part of their "business." ) As a newcomer to this "hobby," I am amazed at the wealth of knowledge accumulated and some (like Barry) who freely share this quite openly (whereas others may not, or charge $$ for it). In each case, that is their decision and their right, since they "own" the items and the data base of information they have accumulated over the years.
So, what happens to all this data in the future? Fast forward and what are the sons and daughters of us MOPAR nuts going to have access to -- say 20 plus years from now? Will this information still be available -- or will it have been destroyed or forgotten or sold off as a "private collection" unavailable to MOPAR enthusiasts? Sure would be nice if we could find a way to maintain all this to ensure it's availability for future "newbees" in this passion of collecting MOPARS!
Just my 2 cents... Vermont MOPAR
