Probably got held up by Canadian Customs...

ABFM is working on it now.

Nothing that drastic. It looks like the electrons I sent my registration with from Alaska had to go through Canada to get to Portland...

Are they using that new "Eh" sniffer?

I just did my registration, but had the same experience as Ken. Went back to the abfm-pdx page after PayPal as instructed, but no place to upload my photo, and no confirmation email despite what the page says.

Weird. I seem to remember it just taking me back to the page to upload the picture right after I finished the PayPal bit. It seemed pretty straight forward at the time. I have heard of others having this problem though. A lady in the club wanted me to help her with her registration because it didn't work for her last year. I'll try to pay attention to the process when we do it for her.

I emailed Bill Martin at PTOA and he forwarded my note to Cameron <camsheahan@juno.com> at ABFM. Cameron emailed that I am registered, but he doesn't know why I didn't get a confirmation or why my photo didn't get posted. I sent him my photo again and he said he would get it entered...

I hope I'm registered. No sign of my photo on the AFM web site. I still haven't found an on-line list of all registered cars/drivers by make and class like they used to do.

Yeah, I liked that spreadsheet. You could search it and sort it anyway you wanted. A new guy has been doing the web page the last couple years and they changed it. Mine is still the only wedge showing up in the "Registered cars/bikes" photos.

The page is titled "<u>some</u> of the vehicles registered." Maybe they don't intend to show all the pictures they get, but I am left wondering if they got my photo.

It looks like they have your photo up now Ken. Unless that isn't your Poseidon Green TR8.

Yep, I sent my photo for the 5th time today, and Eric at the Oregon Mini Society posted it and returned my email. Don't know what happened to the first 4!

I wonder if my 81 TR8 is the car that looks like a Jaguar?

If it is, that's a pretty radical body kit you've got there, Darrell!
