This looks to be an interesting project. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1349166779696431/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks
I don't know about everybody else, but I'm always hesitant to click a link with no explanation. Perhaps you could give us a clue of what this link pertains to?
Okay to click on it. It's a triple black 1965 Fleetwood Brougham listed on FB Marketplace with cloth interior, priced at $9,500 with a knocking engine confessed to.
Thanks, Eric. I don't like clicking blind FB links either. FB drops about 30 cookies and a tracker each time you enter the site.
Yikes... I'm clueless regarding cyber tracking ... so should club members simply refrain from posting interesting listings for cars advertised on Market Place/Facebook? Please advise...James

Not at all. But, when posting a FB link, just give a few details as to what it is that you want us to look at. IE: 1958 Fleetwood 60 Special. Anyone with an interest in that car will gladly click the link and look. (I know I would)
But, before you close your browser, go into settings, privacy and security and delete any cookies and trackers that FB put into the browser. Most will give you the option to simply delete all which logs you out of your favorite sites and then you have to log back in again just to check email or see if someone answered a post you may need information on. It takes about 30 seconds to delete the garbage. Especially if you do online banking and go to personal sites that you don't want others to follow you to. It just helps in protecting your personal data.
There's a CLC-administered FB group page so I don't know how bad it could be. Not a big deal to clean up trackers/cookies every so often.
Looks like we all have our own levels of "Cyber-Paranoia".
