Ron,

I opened the photo album for view only. We don't have any more space so we may have to delete some.

Hey,

I am going to go through a few older albums on non-participating members and delete some photos that do not have much value.

Hi Ryan,
Can we throw money at the issue?

I appreciate the offer, but it would be a recurring expense. I know other website forums run calendars, etc to raise funds and we use the book, but the added expense - not to mention the time to screen new members and track the forum all takes time and money.

If we go to a static site like the CJ3B.info, we can still have the files, maybe a static, searchable forum archive and add articles when we get time. That would be more of a fixed cost and time effort.

Right now I am working on Jake, our original website creator and my brother in law to help us figure out why the website will not back up so we can transition to a newer platform on a static type webpage design.

Even backing up the as-is site as a view only site for reference and moving to a different one for fluid data would be very helpful.

I can even begin to guess how many times I’ve searched subjects and viewed posts and photos.

Yes that would be preferable, but is a lot more difficult per Jake. I know anytime I google anything M38/M38A1 our website forum postings are at the top.

I feel it helps people, but in the end I need to rely on Jake to do the work. We are still trying to find anyone with expert tech knowledge on this platform and moving it if anyone knows anyone!

Unfortunately I think we lost Bretto a while ago. He had some really good restoration photos as well as measurements for parts he fabricated.

It would be a shame to lose the good stuff.

Hey, Don't worry about deleting your entire photo albums. I will go through some of the ones nobody has posted to for a long time. I don't plan on deleting anything that looks instructive or historical.

I still chat with good buddy Bretto now and then. Life got in the way and sold that nice M38. He'll get back into Jeeps when life allows.
