As the title (and PODIE doesn't as he has lost touch with him). I am desperate to re-invigorate the buyers guide and how to sections of www.tvrsseries.com that we have lost since the site went down but need to approach PIES for the source code

Hope someone can help

I recall Pies lived somewhere in the Canterbury area and just vanished off the face of the earth suddenly. I hope he is ok. I will try to contact Kentish as he may know him.

Members directory puts him in Ashford, so not far from Canterbury ?

Yes that is correct. I recall he was living in the Canterbury area and then moved to Ashford (not that far from Canterbury); there was talk of having to sell the S. I have dropped Pies and Kentish a note. Let's hope something comes of it.

Colin was a regular poster when I first came to the site , having seen Marks request I contacted another member who new him around that time but they have lost touch and the mail address he had bounced back .
The last post that I remember seeing implied that Colin was ill and might need to sell his car .
I have no idea how ill he was but it must be a couple of years ago so I hope he is OK .
Someone out there must know of him ?
His V8S was Mica Blue with Tan interior and had a personal plate B1ANK C i think , has anyone seen that about .

I have tried PM him through TVRCC and also contacted the regional organisers, no joy yet. He is still a TVRCC member so hopefully something will work

Most of Colin's files appear to be lost, unless we can get in touch with him. I had an email address for him, but it's no longer active.

However, I also had the "data sheets" independently, but didn't want to host them "in competition". However, I have now added them to my web site.

I don't have the files he had, with price lists / specifications etc.

There were also a lot of links to "how to" articles on a number of owner sites, and obviously I have the files for my own, but not the others - but they were just links so those could be listed anywhere.

The other invaluable resource was Colin's own "buyers guide", which I propose to rebuild in his words (but possibly having to use other photos where his aren't available) and I'll do that over the next few days.

Has anyone rang TVRCC office and ask if they could pen a letter to him? I guess someone could supply words if required?
They will have his address but data protection etc.

In other thread on the subject I said I have contacted both the RO's for the area he lives in and asked them to pass on details. Also PM him through his profile on TVRCC but no reply yet

I just wasn't entirely sure if they would release his details to his RO but guess they would.
