OK - since the cat's out of the bag.. The board will live on. A friend reached out and offered free hosting. He has a soft spot for traditional bulleting boards. In the next 24 hours, after the DNS tables update, going to IHADAV8.com will direct to the new server. Another bonus, it seems much faster to me.  All threads and images are restored. Be aware, if you post on it now, that post may not be on the new server. Please wait about 24 hours to post. I am leaving the Facebook group as is, for those that may be more comfortable with that interface.

Well, I saved the text but I doubt the pix made it through. I have all the pix I'm sure but finding them again will take some effort. Hard to believe it started thirteen yrs ago. I hope everyone makes it to the facebox thing. See ya there!

The email was received with shivers. I know I ain't been around...but this community means a lot to me. I remember the good ole days, the homegrown banter, it was fun! Most of us talked trash, entertaining to some and unneedlessly serious to others. Back in the day these boards were poppin' because of all of us. We were fans and we had fans, always something interesting enough to make people log in day after day. Now I just log in every couple/few years to say I'll never forget yall. Not because of the banter but because of the love and support the community showed me. To this day it's the most cherished time of my life. I've met people that whatever our differences I'd give them the shirt off my back till the day I die, no grudges in that department.

At one point this community spanned MySpace, t6p, ihadav8, turbobuick, turbobuicks and other sites.

Everyone moves on but how could we ever forget. I'm kinda sad right now. I want to thank everyone. Luv yall and good night!

Special shout out to Mark! Thanks man!

I have archived it, and scraped the site again today.

Save this link, you can also download the board as well.

Sorry to hear it and thank you for keeping it up so long.

There are a few posts on here that were really helpful when I was rebuilding my front end, and doing other projects on the car.  Is there any way to archive the board's contents?  I'm sure other people could benefit too.  If there isn't an easy way to archive it, maybe we could manually copy a few threads to the other board?

Appreciate everything that you and the other folks here have done!

My advice is to screenshot the pages you want and save on your PC or phone. Once the board is shutdown the links you save will come up as a error. Another option is try a free program called  http://web.archive.org/     It's hit and miss but covers the history of any website.
