You could check http://www.archive.org/ but I don't know if they archive Craigslist.

All I can tell is that it was for an SAE car, sorry.

Google archives everything.

bummer, archive.org has not crawled the indy craigslist recently.
i will post to the indy CL and see if the OP will contact me. doesn't really matter, as the purchaser has already contacted me through another forum.
back story: CL ad was for "SAE Formula 1 Challenge" car supposedly built by my alma mater in 2005. the guy who bought it emailed me through the FSAE Forum , said he had done some research and thought it was actually built in '92, and asked if i could provide any info. apparently the 2005 FSAE team at Maryland posted some pix of the '92 car as a smoke-screen of what they were building for '05. i'm still trying to figure out how the car ended up in Indy nearly 20 years after it was built...

This is all I was able to get. Did Google turn off their cached site viewing?

It appears Google doesn't have that page cached.

Google doesn't have that one cached, but cached views are still available for other pages. When searching, open the instant preview of the page and the cached option (if available) link will be near the top of the preview pane.

The stuff my alma mater was cranking out during that time period was pretty crude. Ask me how I know ;).
Ok...nothing really to add...sorry.

that's funny! i've been in touch with a bunch of friends that built the car, and they're all digging around to find their design notebooks. i also have a bunch of photos of the car being built and raced, which i'm going to send to the new owner.
