How to access Earl's World?

Remember Earl's World, the website started by George Hartman about the rebuild of his 56 F250? I am looking or the correct routing of the spark plug wires for my 54 Yblock. A search on FTE brought up a thread that about Yblock engine color. George posted a link to Earl's World. I clicked on the link and FTE said it couldn't retrieve it.

Does anyone have it saved on their computer? I don't think a bookmark would open it up either. I am looking for a picture or diagram of where the one bracket and grommet that holds the wires at the right rear of the engine is located. Here is the bracket in question.

I had that link as well as the vendors link from earls world...but it no longer works


http--www.clubfte.com-users-earl-Parts_Vendors-Parts_Vendor_Links.html




I would venture the clubfte.com is no longer a valid site

Google and Bing fail to find anything except his article on building a media blasting cabinet.

Looks like his stuff is gone.

Here are some other Y-Block pictures from the rear:

The links were thru ClubFTE. If he is no longer a member his pages are most likely gone

That's a shame. It was a very thorough and helpful site.

Thanks.

I can not believe Earls World is gone! That was a awesome site. He shared so much with us. There must be some way to bring it back to life? As I remember, he got sick and another member bought the truck and put some finishing touches on it and kept in touch with the owner?

Yes, you are correct. Walford bought it.
