Forum will no longer be utilized!

After facing many challenges with utilization of this forum for many years, the board voted on the evening of 1/12/2026 to stop use of the forum in favor of the modern, more effective means.

Most of our general club organization will now be coordinated via Discord and results from our events along with schedules and announcements will be hosted on our main alscca.net webpage.

What does this mean for the old forum? Well, in short we are going to stop using it. This has been reviewed several times in the past few years, and there has been a desire for some of more tenured members of the club to have the historic content preserved. In an effort to preserve this content, it was discovered that we could not simply export the content to be placed in a modern website. This forum will now become an archive only forum and will not be monitored. If you wish to preserve any of the content, this is your time to search the pages to find it. There is no promise that this content will remain available forever with the fragile nature of this forum.

      Don't think that's reduced or compromised ... it's just not there.

        Looks like it should pass water just fine.

            Those floor pans are almost like new! When I ran my old BMW 2002 (nick named "Rusty") @ Huntsville you would have to take a whores bath before you could drive home, there was more red dust inside than there was outside!Let me put it like this, it had a hole in the back floor pan that you could drop a bolling ball threw. The carpet didn't filter out the dust as well as you would have tought!

                "structural rust" that's not structural, it's just part of the body.

                I have holes like that in the volvo, it passes tech.

                  Floor pans in ACVW aren't really too structural except where the seats and pedals attach. Put some carpet on it. lol I may be buying a used FWD VW because the wife is griping about the mounting costs of my Ghia build.

                    Yeah, the seat rails mount to the sides, not the floor. Still unnerving ...
