Does anyone know what is going on with Eckler's website? I've been trying to access it for the past few days but it does not appear to be up.

Thanks,

I'm familiar with both Eckler's location and with West Coast Corvette. My question is in regard to Eckler's website. Thanks

Since Ecklers is in Florida, I'm guessing their web site servers are also, and they've been getting a bit of rain recently... Lots of power outages where they're located.

Sorry everyone, I'm a little slow on the uptake today. Of course, Florida! A three-day weekend always slows me down. Thanks.

Probably some weather related problems. Give them some time to recover and I'll bet their site will be back up.

Might have something to do with the fact that there are about 10 million other people in Florida that have no power after hurricane Frances. I wonder what we in Florida did to cause all of this bad weather.

I was watching the evening news (NBC I think) after the hurricane passed
through. They just happen to show Ecklers building and the debris around
it. The building looked fine, but no electricity I'm sure. I don't know if
they maintain their web server on site or not, even if it is hosted at another
location, internet connectivity around that area is probably not fairing to
well right now!

They sent me an email telling me their servers would be down due to the hurricane. They are about 5 miles or so from the ocean. & closer to the Indian River.
