I could imagine images/smilies/unsure.gif You would have learnt quite alot about those older cars though.

I like the way you labeled the episodes...I might just use that for my TG list images/smilies/smile.gif

The ones I have the most problems with are usually from before the seventees. images/smilies/tongue.gif

Do you happen to know of a website that deals with identifying cars?
Google Image Search is usually helpful, but sometimes I don't even know the make of car to search on. images/smilies/mellow.gif

You could check www.mobile.de, set the correct
filters for your best guess and hope you'll find what you're looking for.images/smilies/mellow.gif

I assume you mean the espnsti.iridiumonline.info site?
No it's not down, but I have noticed that you probably have to initially hit refresh/try again sometimes before it works.

I probably won't get around to adding 1997x04 - 1997x08 soon. (In case anyone's waiting for them.)
I've been a bit sick the last week and I'm quite busy now, gotta do the taxes, got to prepare for the next season of LFS, and I'm a bit behind in my TV watching duties.
I'll probably have them done in a few weeks or so.

ESPNSTI, have you thought about adding the latest stuff to the wiki now that we have that? (Other people can transcribe the old stuff)

Not sure how my stuff fits in to the wiki, I'll see.

Still have to get up to date and contact TechZ to get upload access again.
