Even if it was here that I saw those images, and they were lost due to the image server snafu... those images had been copied from somewhere else. In other words, I doubt the original images are lost forever, it's just a matter of them cropping up again. Perhaps start a thread specifically asking for those images. I strongly suspect that someone still has access to them.
And no, I can't describe with any credibility what those taillights looked like.

Also, what about archived posts, where only 1 page is available to view, is there a way to view additional pages, as many pertinent threads only have one page available to me to see.

Best bet is someone who worked on the cars may have a private photo.
If I were at GM and done this I would have just had Porsche eater in the Porsche script cut into a thin sheet of plastic that would fit under the lens. A graphic place could easily cut this for you.
Using the correct scrip makes it more on point.
You just need the light to pass through.

That's a good idea, if I can't find anything to confirm or deny, then that's probably what I would do, although I don't know if gm could use the Porsche font, considering how much gm is striking out at retailers using the Fiero logo, I would think the genuine Porsche font would be sued quickly, maybe that's where they used an artist for, to make an "artist's depiction" that is close enough to appear genuine, but far enough to avoid lawsuits.

What? That makes no sense!  All pages in a thread are accessible.

Not for me, at least on my phone, haven't tried on my PC, I can see all pages in most threads, but any archived threads (for example this) I can see one specific page, usually the first one, but occasionally the one I click from Google is a different page number, then pressing the thing for next page leads me to a blank screen

Didn't we go down this road before regarding viewing PFF on a phone... and how turning the phone on its side cured all ills. 
I never use a phone to access anything online. That's what a PC is for. [This message has been edited by Patrick (edited 09-30-2024).]

Yes, we did, for something else, a button or something that wasn't appearing, but considering the bottom appears for the next page, I would assume it indeed leads me to the next page, I know already what your opinions are on using a phone, and it certainly isn't as feature rich or useful in some ways, but I can't exactly lug my laptop or desktop around to check PFF while I'm doing anything other than sitting down at a desk, or somewhere laptop accessible, or whatnot, I've actually pivoted to using my phone mostly for research as opposed to my PC, because the tabs don't automatically close in the browser, they are all there waiting for me, a computer I'd either have to only put to sleep, or have to reopen all the tabs at restart (I know, not that hard) on my phone I have an organized mess of tabs, different groups for different potential projects (625 tabs to be exact haha, yes I counted), of which most is for the 3400 turbo build I'll be doing, along with the supporting mods.

Ok, sounds good, I didn't even realize it was a bug, it served reasonable to be that to save space, archived posts would just have the most important page of information saved, glad to see that there's more!
