Re: Brakes not working update
Hi Rick
?
I live in Susquehanna Pa, not really close . I have a 1981 Comutacar, which
I restored, similar to a C-Car and may be able to help you with any
questions.

I
have had this 1976 Citi-Car in storage for quite a few years.
finally
decided to fix it up and get it on the road.
where
do i find the serial number on this car?
I
live in Emmaus, Pennsylvania.
iam
kinda new to this, but anxious to show it off
how
do i find out if anyone lives close to me that has a Citi-Car?
my
zip code is 18049
?
thanks,?

Welcome
to the group.? Do I have your CitiCar on my Roster??
If
not, send me your information and the serial; number and I will enter it into my
master file.?
?
To
answer your question, many have tried to switch to a more modern break system
but none have been quite successful, so far.? The early 1974-5 CitiCar¡¯s
actually had front disc brakes but the change to 4 wheel drum brakes with dual
master cyl worked much better.

It also has Email or other contact information for each owner I have .? I never publish the serial numbers but use it to create my C-Car Code.?

Hey everyone!?
Thanks to all for your work to switch over to groups.io!?
?
I¡¯m trying my best to track down a blue Citicar that was once displayed at the Central Texas Museum of Automotive History, until it was sold at auction when the museum closed.?
?
I used to own that car when I was a 14year old boy! It¡¯s a long story, but I have some things I would love to give to the current owner!

I would be forever grateful!?

To C-Car group moderator's,?

We are in process of transferring your yahoo group. Depending on Yahoo and demand, this may take several days. You will be notified by email when the transfer is completed.

Re: Google groups? Re: Groups.io hosting?
I'm watching all messages I see they say " will be down for maintenance this evening, starting at 6PM Pacific"
Bart
?
I have moved a couple of groups, and you should get an automated email saying you have been added to the Group.IO group.? The biggest issues with the migrations seems to be that you have to get past the invite of the agent and many of the moderators do not read the message correctly thinking that they have successfully invited.

Re: Google groups? Re: Groups.io hosting?
My understanding is you will get notified after the transfer has been completed.? However I don't know if this automatic or if I need to upload the current (yahoo mail list) to send the welcome message.? Let's see what?happens
Bart
?
So I have only been casually following the posts and don¡¯t have any insight on what individual members of the group are required to do in order to maintain connections.
?
Will the transfer automatically occur or do we have to actually do something with the link?? I sort of assumed that the moderators are handling it..
?
By the way, I am the proud owner of an early (73-74) citi car in unrestored condition.? One of these days soon I hope to get it at least parade worthy.

Hi Tom,
?
I guess there is one more step to allow to start transfer.
"We have accepted the invite to your group. If you have not already, make?[email protected]?a
moderator of your group. Once you have done that, tell us when you are ready to transfer your group."
BTW: If any of the current moderator wish to be a moderator on the forum, please have them contact me after they register so I can updated them to moderator status
