Greetings and welcome to the new and improved website dedicated to the Ford T5 automobile !!!
Thank you for your patience everyone. After my last attempt to update the site failed I was very cautious about who to hire. My intent was to create an interactive website where we could begin a new chapter in the hobby and enjoy conversing with fellow owners and other interested parties. This is a brand new website so it is our responsibility to fill it with content about the Ford T5.
Attached is a screen shot of the toolbar below you user name. Spend some time looking at all the features that have a widget to become familiar with how to navigate within the site.
I have tried the registration form and it state that the capcha cannot verify???
Also is there some place where I can view the old database of T5's registered. I know i can view it on the wayback machine but I have yet to find it anywhere else,

The registered T5 database is not present on this new website as there were some privacy concerns. Im in the process of creating a remedy. Do you have a specific question?

I was trying to find out if my T5 was registered since the registration form isn't working. the Registry I found on the wayback machine doesn't show my vehicle.
I don't know what the privacy concerns are, especially since it never showed personal information (owners names or addresses). Other than that the only thing I can conceivably think of that might be of privacy concern is the build sequence number but I personally don't think that is a valid concern.
I have attached the Marti Report for my vehicle as evidence that it is a verifiable T5.

Gillian,
We're still working out the bugs in the new website, I apologize the registration tool is not working properly. I checked the registry for your T5 and it is in fact listed (by me since becoming the registrar).
Protecting the privacy of all register vehicles and owners is my highest priority. The internet and dark web have made the possibility of a bad actor seeking personal details through registered VINs is a very real possibility. Every state DMV used to provide copies of previous owner titles upon request but all have ceased the practice for the same reason. I know because I acquired copies of all the previous owners of my T5 in the 1980s. Im still missing the first two titled owners because the states my T5 was titled in had already put limits on archived title access to law enforcement.
