    I would like to update the details of s/n 08128 on the Ferrari Dino 208 & 308 GT4 Registry, http://www.dino-gt4-registry.com/, but it appears as though it has not been updated since March 28, 2009 and an email request I sent to the webmaster went unanswered. Does anyone know if the webmaster has given up on it?

    I actually talked to the GT4 registry webmaster - Peter -. He has been laden down
    with business and other issues. He will revisit the site in the near future as far
    as I understand. He is a very nice guy, and VERY knowlegable.

    Cheers,
    Dwight

    Likewise I updated the web master on my Gt4 - 12830 - and did so well over a year ago, and have never heard a bean. I hope he cracks back into it..

    It is a fantastic data base ,particularly if up to date ish.

    I'm the webmaster and registrar for the site.

    I apologize for a lack of contact but as Dwight alluded to, the updates had been delayed due to lack-of-time and also computer issues I had back in 2009. Yes, over a year ago, I know, but be assured, all of the info and photos are all there - it just needs to be sorted out and uploaded. I also know there is a problem with the entire site when viewed using Firefox (which I had to run a while back due to those computer issues), so that'll need a major clean-up. I should have set up the site and the database itself differently as it would have made the entire process easier, but I had to work with what I had back then. Hard to change over at this point.

    In any case, it'll remain online (I pay for the site out of my pocket at a reasonable amount, so no one else is going to pull the plug). I've always considered it to be my contribution to the Ferrari community.

    Hi Peter,

    Thank you much for your work. If there is any thing I can do to help I would be happy to, I was in the web industry in a previous life.

    A friend of mine is a database programmer who might be able to help bring it into the 21 century, or at least simplify it.

    Peter,

    Are there any plans to revive the Registry web site?

    Thanks.

    Jack.

    It would be great if the Registry could be updated. The info and picture of my car is incorrect. The picture shown is not even my S/N. If some effort was put into it I'm sure many owners would be more than happy to submit info and photos.
