We never ever see your CC info, that all stays with PayPal.
There's no way i would want the responsibility of having to store someone's bank/money info.

Happy there is a place for us here. Thank you to Pelican for the hospitality. Lurked here every now and then.
Thank you SirAndy and to anyone else working through this issue.

Hello all, it's been a while. I went to check on the site today and it was down, so here I am. Thanks SirAndy (it's been a looooong time) for working hard to get it back up again.

Hard to believe I joined this site over 20 years ago.

Been outta the 914 world for 15 years or so. Owned 20+ cars raced and restored them. Used to have 5-6 go to places on the net to try and piece info together, buy sell parts etc. Noticed awhile ago that had changed. Pretty much 1 go to place, and man was it great. Even took a look on there last week as my son was thinking about buying his first one. Bragged to him how great a community this was and how this "one" site would be indispensable for him going forward.
Good news he bought a great 75 1.8 with almost no rust, in great condition for half what it's probably worth. Then Black Sunday happened ......

Good luck on your repairs and thanks for putting together such a great resource. Guess I'll have to rely on my memory til then... we are so screwed ...

I have had these cars since the 70's before internet. Buy him a 914 Haynes manual. Early Christmas present.

Any updates on the World recovery? How's it going. Brings me back to a few 54 hours days I have had in IT.

Thank you for all you do for us, Sir Andy!!

Nothing against this forum, I'm a Pelican customer and visit and contribute here often.

But I am going through withdrawels.

Went over to the world and saw the note... sucks but I have faith in you. Typically I’m pretty laxxed with security stuff but lately I’ve been updating stuff to the two-factor authentication.

Can’t wait to get back
