Went to pull some info from the wedge pages site but can't find it again. Guess the host server contract or site license is gone. Anybody know how to acess an old net page?

Ah that's a pity, usually when it comes to an end of a run, somebody normally pipes up and takes it on. I wonder what has happened and if it can be retrieved???? sonar

I thought someone from here acquired it a couple of years ago, made noises about updating and improving it and then seemingly did nothing with it?

If you look at http://www.theseacpages.co.uk/media/owners_richard..., you will see the page heading as The TVR Wedge Page.

However the root address is The SEAC Pages.

I remember when someone took over these pages, but I cannot recall who.

Yeah, but the links to the actual pages on that are dead.

I'm pretty sure it was Gandalf that acquired the Wedge Pages?

He's the Wedge editor for Sprint and wanted to remain so after our last review, that said I haven't seen him posting here or indeed anywhere much for a while, maybe he's not well?

Did we get anywhere finding out what happened to WedgePages ???????? sonar

I emailed Steve but no reply as of yet. It will be a huge pity if this is gone for good!!!!!!!!!

Anyone know how else we can chase this one down?

Have got a couple of feelers out looking for Steve, so let's see what comes of it. Don't want to see the pages gone for good, if we can do something about it. sonar

I'm sure there are copies of the pages somewhere, but are they not copyright to Steve?

tvrwedgepages.co.uk domian is suspended from 23 July this year - looks like it's expired.

I have a VPS and happy to host the content

Try this link:

www.tvrwedgepages.co.uk

The wayback machine now has all the pictures included so the articles actually make sense!

Bump just for the hell of it and to say that the link to the archive still works, for those who may have never seen the Wedgepages biggrin

I wonder how many of the owners featured still have their Wedges... whistle

I'm still here and I had a look through the owners gallery, and there I am.
It would be interesting if any new wedgers see their cars with previous owners.
