Hmmm, I'm a little disappointed that none of the other seniors mentioned the MCMB (what has evolved (sorta) to Cougarnuts), I believe that was around before. I was reading coolcats.net and on the MCMB around 2000 and 2001 I registered and started posting.

Yes, Scott Felthousen's original MCMB sorta branched off from the original Fox T-Bird/Cougar message board and morphed into Cougarnuts - I don't know how David came to be the admin or what happened to Scott (nor what happened to his red fender), but perhaps David can refresh my memories.

The original MCMB is still there on EZBoard, BTW, but it has nothing to do with Cougars anymore (perhaps indicating that Scott and his red-fendered Cougar have parted ways):

And while we're posting screenshots, here are my two identities (Thundercat joined January 2000 and Thunder Chicken joined June 2000):

Here's mine!

I found Cool Cats way back in '98 when it was first created though.

I found cool cats when I bought my Cougar. The previous owner told me I could find alot of usefull info. I'm not sure if the guy was on the old board or not.

MCMB became Cougarnuts when David offered to provide a host spot for then then MCMB. I dont really recall how the name morphed however that is how David (who I believe at that time was a new(ish) member) became the Admin... Rightfully so if you host it.
