oldfordcrewcabs.com is currently offline due to domain name registration lapse. I'm not sure how many here go to OFCC too, but I for one hope it is back online soon.

I emailed the DNS admin offering to assist if needed because I'd hate to see that great site disappear.

I like that site, but doesn't seem to be much going on. Hope they get it fixed though.

I had registered for that site almost a year ago and was always pending approval. All of my emails regarding my account were never answered. My belief is that site was a ship floating lost at sea. I think the site owner jumped ship a long time ago and never bothered to hand it off to someone who would keep it afloat. It would be nice if it comes back, but I think it was pretty much a dead in the water once the owner stopped taking care of it. The only activity on it were with the current approved members and there was no one manning the wheel to allow new blood to come in.

That is a great way to put it! I agree. I had joined once I had got my crew cab. However virtually no activity. I think it has lot of great potential though.

I agree that it was pretty stale in terms of recent activity. I hope to get in contact with someone who has the site content to cull through it and share the good information that it contained. I can't tell you how many times I've seen people quote the history of how crew cabs were hand built etc, but not remembering where they heard it from. Most of those descriptions were based on a few threads from OFCC.

Of course, the more we share in these forums the better this resource becomes

I posted that exact history you are talking about in this thread: http://www.fordification.com/forum/view ... =7&t=63299

So at least it is preserved somewhat here. It would be nice if Keith or someone could put the info in the resources somewhere other than the forums where the info can get lost...

http://www.oldfordcrewcabs.com is back up and running as of this evening.



On an unrelated topic, I'm getting out to my truck tomorrow to take it over to get weighed and have the VIN verified so I can get it registered. \

lets all work to make crew cab as good of a site as this one
