Title: Hipo Mustang Website
Post by: bluek on August 18, 2018, 10:18:08 AM
Figured someone here will know what's going on with the Hipomustang.com site -- says down for maintenance.

Any idea how long and what the issues are?

Thanks

Well now you you don't  have to wonder what you were missing .     Likely you were trying to register using a gmail or yahoo email address, which they don't / didn't allow.

Was a great and active site for many years.
Then a crash and 'new' website.
Never recovered. Such a great source .... just flittered away.... where'd everybody go?

SCARY...............

I tried to register 3-4 times as well with an AOL email and it wouldn't take it so I quit trying.

Shame,  use to be such a great source of information.  I lost my password and hadn't been able to log in for a long time and couldn't create a new account.

Would be nice if we could merge the hipomustang forum with the SAAC forum given the obvious connections between the cars.

Have a K Code section under   The Cars

Appreciate all the great information here.

Wow,
that's a great idea if its possible, being the owner of a 1965 K-code I found the site to be invaluable.
Fred, Zray an some of the other guys were always willing to help with problems you were having.
I talked to Fred earlier this week, he's not sure what the problem is.
