rotus8 Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) I have found that http://www.electricvehiclemuseum.org no longer responds. This site is an invaluable resource for Detroit Electric owners, having a huge collection of scanned blueprints from the factory. I have been downloading as I needed information and had intended to just download everything pertaining to my model/year but of course never got around to it. I researched the owner of the domain and came up with Bob Oldfather. I attempted to contact him via Facebook, but didn't get a response. If anyone has any information about the condition of this site, I would appreciate hearing about it.

Detroit_Electric Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 (edited) I have sent a message to Bob but I have not heard back yet. It was down a few years ago and after I contacted him he got it back running. I will try a couple more avenues Edited January 15, 2022 by Detroit_Electric (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotus8 Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 The electricvehiclemuseum.org site appears to be down again. Any way to contact the owner to get it going again? I would be willing to make a donation for site maintenance if that is what it takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually have a snapshot of the entire archive from a couple of years ago, I was checking to see if there was anything new added. It would be a shame if this resource is lost.
