LOL, at least 5/day for me too.

BTW, I heard back from Porsche (regarding my COA). They are going to issue a replacement with the correct model year instead of year manufactured. Whomever was doing the COAs in 2000 (when mine was first done) was not very diligent. Mine didn't have a "birth date" or interior type/colors. They're going to correct that on the new COA as well! My interior was originally yellow with beige corduroy inserts. Now I need to find some pictures of this combo! Once I get the document I can get the title changed to reflect '53 and then get that original antique tag Very Happy

Jack,
Thats great news on Porsche correcting your paperwork. Plus, a 1953 YOM Florida tag will look great in contrast to the black exterior paint of your coupe.

Drive 'Em!

Mark

The reason I quit the 356 registry over 18 years ago is because of the idealistic ways and attitudes of the elders.
They need to move and think in the 21st century and get off there antiquited ass's and move forword.
Most of the 356 owners i know refuse to join the registry due to these reasons and the anal attitudes.
I plan on getting back into 356's again and a REAL FORUM would be nice.
It will be nice to break out my collection of 356 parts that I quit collecting 18 years ago!

Got the latest Registry this week. Chuck House eluded to the change and said to keep an eye out for an announcement in the near future. It would be great to see it revealed in the next 48 hrs.

What makes me laugh is the same situation happens world wide.. we have the same things happening here in the UK

PCGB hard core of members who so nothing wrong with anything. But what they can't see is the that the members are leaving.. the 912 section for example has gone from 120+ to 80 but I know the true figure is more like 40 as the numbers are not right as members have sold their cars years ago!!

I think your right leave them to enjoy what they have... we get on with what we need to do.. which is use modern ways to do things.. hey in 50 years time we will be getting young wipper snappers telling we are doing things wrong but that's life.. Laughing

I know what's going on over on 356 reg and I say wait you might be rewarded.. Wink

Personaly I have dropped out the main clubs because of the old guard.. I have time on my side ( i hope ) and my time to help run things will come.. Then we will see who was right Very Happy

All,

The 356 Registry's 356Talk email list has been around for nearly 15
years ever since Robin Hansen started it with help from Rick Dill. It
has been a source of invaluable 356 information and camaraderie over the
years for all 356 enthusiasts. From time to time over the past few
years, discussion has occurred about changing the format of this list.
There are some who prefer a bulletin board (BB) forum style while others
prefer the immediacy of the existing email listserv. It was not a matter
of old vs. new tech, instead it was about what worked the best for the
subscribers. Unfortunately in the past, it was not possible to please
both sides on this issue.

However, I am happy to announce that you can now "have it your way".
Thanks to the Herculean efforts of Brian O'Kelly with assistance from
Barry Brisco, the 356 Registry will soon change to a system which will
incorporate a fully featured bulletin board forum with the added
capability to subscribe for email delivery. Therefore, those who want
and have been clamoring for the BB forum system with its ability to post
photos and better organize threads should be ecstatic and those who want
to keep getting email like they have been getting can still choose to do
so with minimal impact. It should be the best of both worlds.

Bill Sampson, our current list monitor, will follow up with details on
how to register for the new forum. He has included a lot of detail for
the sake of those who are unfamiliar with this type of forum as the
registration process will involve a few more steps. Those already
familiar with these types of systems should have no issues. Since you
will be able to choose the delivery method in the new system, I ask that
you please refrain from clogging up the 356Talk list debating which
method is best. It is a personal preference issue and you will have a
choice.

We ask that ALL 356Talk list members IMMEDIATELY register for the new
forum and unsubscribe from the old. We will go through a 30 day
transition period at which time the existing 356Talk listserv will be
shut down and all traffic will be in the new 356Talk BB and listserv
system.

As we move to this new and exciting phase for 356Talk, I would like to
once again acknowledge Robin Hansen and Rick Dill for all the work and
effort they put into the creation and maintenance of the original
356Talk. It has been and will continue to be the best real time
information exchange forum for the 356 enthusiast. All those who utilize
the list owe Robin and Rick a huge debt of gratitude.

Chuck House
President, 356 Registry

great so we can tell our freinds now, god it's been a pain in the bum to keep quite about this for the last few months Laughing

I have to say also a huge thanks to the orginal 356 talk I think it's been a great tool and also a great way to keep intouch with each other and get questions answered. With the new way we can see in picture format better and over time will be able to search questions before we ask them and then also look back at questions you thought at the time I will wait to see the ansewer to that sounds interesting..

So why you still here.. see you over there....>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Laughing

Thanks, the Mail2Forum mod was a little tricky. Then all the little tweaks they required...

Very Happy
