No longer driving a Ford.

I've been thinking about making a web site where people could come to to find a particular classic car, or to let others know about classic cars that they know of that are in need of a new home.
The thinking behind it is that, while there are plenty of other places to advertise cars for sale, that is part of the problem, if you're looking for, say a 1970 Ford Escort Twin Cam, you currently have many places to look - trading post, the age, car yards, web sites, etc. and you still might not find exactly what you're after, because there is one for sale in the next suburb that is parked in a street (or being driven around) with a 'For Sale, phone 0405 xxx xxx' sticker on it that hasn't been advertisted anywhere. I'm thinking of a searchable database that anybody that visits could add to, so if you saw a sweet looking XP Falcon for sale (or even one that looks like it's in need of a little, or even a lot of TLC) you could go to the site, and enter the details - where you saw it, any contact details, anything else you know about it. The main reason is that I want to save as many classic cars as possible from going to be crushed because the owner no longer wants it and can't locate a buyer, so one more classic gets crushed, and somebody misses out on the car they've always wanted. What does everybody think of this idea?
