Here is a picture from Parts Obselete. It was from the PNW914meet I set up starting at my Pizza Parlor. We stopped by there on our drive to check out all his parts. Not to mention get a good picture. This was back in 97 or 98 I think. Just a one day event but a good one. This was before the World or even club was really going.

I would love to make one of these campouts, just to busy to make it again
this year. And rummor has it that this will be the last one.
Jamie you are correct, they do build some of the finest Vintage Race Cars!!!
You guys all have a good time but without me.
I remember a few years back that the Emory boys bought a hole lot
of 914 parts for thier inventory. If you don't find what your looking for
at the Swap Meet just ask at the office, they may have
Thanks for the invite Jamie....sounds like a great time...But once again I will not be able to attend...one of these days....I HOPE!

Only 5 days to go! I'll be prepping all my parts for sundays swap meet. I've got a few sets of wheels to sell. Along with many misc interior, exterior parts. I'll try to get a list of what I am bringing up later. Things are looking good & I am excited for this weekend.

I took a quick talley of parts I'll be bringing for the swap meet. Man I have entirely to many parts lying around. Anyway if you are coming to the swap meet. I will have all this stuff there & more most likely once I get into the many drawers of stuff I have.
Wheels- 16" phone dials with good tires, Space saver, Set of riviera's with good tires, 3 freshly powder coated all black 16x6 fuchs, 1 nice 4-lug fuchs with tire.
944 turbo brembo's brake calipers set of 4, Front & rear valances, Rockers, one of those crappy single carb setups, a small pairs of some strange carbs, Couple side shifts, some rear brake light buckets & lenses, couple hoods, couple engine lids, couple tops, some misc powder coated heater parts, some misc fuel injection.
Anyway this isn't a for sale add. You've got to come to the swap meet to get any of it. Just trying to entice you . I plan to drive my LE up either friday night or saturday morning. Then catch a ride home with the wife & leave the LE up there. Was going to try
to get my v8 up there too. Going to be tough though with me needing to bring a trailer full of parts up. Although if I would finally put the hitch on my v8 I could pull my 914 trailer up all packed with parts. Dang that would be really cool

I will definitely be there Saturday and Sunday, sounds great, and wouldn’t want to miss the last one!
Hey Jamie,
Do you think it would be a good idea to drive my Taildragger down and put a for sale sign on her?
I was thinking of driving Greenie down but if there is a good turn-out I would take the white one instead.
Kelty was thinking of taking his Westy for an overnight but I'm not sure what he's up to.

I was just handed tickets to attend Saturday's Olympic Track & Field Trials here in Eugene so I won't be up until Sunday**.
**unless they're boring as hell then I'll be there Saturday afternoon.
I'm planning to come out either saturday or sunday... the '70 is in the shop at A&P getting a couple of things done... hopefully I can drive it out....
gunna wait to do the polizei graphics until the historic's tho... still need to paint a fender....
Sounds good Brett! I just heard from Dean who has the beautiful green suby conversion. He is coming down saturday. He's got some parts he is bringing for the swap meet. My booth should be pretty full with my parts, Deans & Ian suby conversion stuff. Still trying to see if I can get my hitch put on my v8 so I can bring the 914 trailer. Now we just need the impending rain to come early or not at all
Could everyone coming pipe in on when & if you plan to be there for the BBQ. I think we have a dozen or so coming. Some are just coming for a day. Just want to know when to expect you. They emailed me asking some about the count for the BBQ. They just want a rough count so they don't under buy. Same with overbuying obviously. I do plan to be there most the day tomorrow & stay for the BBQ. I'll head home not to long after the BBQ. Just need to get things all loaded & ready for the swap meet sunday morning.
See you all soon & my cell is 5four1 5one0 00eight6 . Thanks- Jamie
Got the LE all ready to go. Working on the hitch on the v8 all afternoon. Just need to fix my MC. Leaking fluid out one of the top seals. Stinking pedal flex pushes it down enough after a while it pops out.. i need to add a brace to fix that flex
Myself and the Pelican 911 boys from Portland still plan on coming down Sunday AM.
We're meeting at Bridgeport at 7:30.
You all have a good time. Would like to be there but can't make it.
Post pictures.
Truck is loaded with a lot of parts for the swap meet on Sunday. Jamie, I have the feeling we are going to need another booth. Here's a list of what I'll be bringing:
- A set of oem driving/fog lights
- Trailing Arms
- Axles
- f/g rocker panels
- very nice back window
- like new Italian (opaque/clear) front turn signal lenses
- Lots of latches, front/rear lid hinges, fastener hardware packages
- 4 front brake calipers
- nice rear targa bar chrome trim
- nice sail panel lower chrome trim
- pedal cluster
- very nice dash knee pad
- New QRS f/g rear deck lid w/spoiler
- more...
There is about 50 cars here. It awesome although only 3 914's so far
Dang i cant seem to post a pic from my phone. There are at least 70 old Porsches here its incredible.
I'll get pjcs up tonight

Some amazing cars here =)
Did anyone else notice that everyone is backed into their accept the 914's?
I guess that's because we're different.
Okay here are finally some pics. Ian posted a few of the fields so I won't add to many of all those. I took 85 pics yesterday. The amount of 356's there & there shape they are in was astounding. I was all day over the many Beautiful Porsche's there. I have to admit my Creamsicle didn't look to out of place. I had many compliments & pictures taken of it yesterday.
Here are some pics from the Barn. Some stunning cars in there along with one very ratrodish 914 race car. I'm walking through & stop in my tracks. I think how in the hell is that sitting here in the middle of all these . They had raced in the 24hourse of lemans or whatever it is called as a fundraiser. The bike/ motorcycle was a trip. Had this old school leather strap for it's drive belt. Very cool bike though.
In the shop there was a sweet old Honda motorcycle with the skinniest tires I have ever seen on a motorcycle. I wish we could have had more 914's there. We had 5 at one time once. Other than that we stayed around 3 for most of it. Was a great weekend to finish off their 18year run of campouts.
It was great to see Dean (sawtooth) for the swap meet today. Although we didn't have to many 914 buyers. I sold a rear valance & a something else small. I can't remember what it was. Then of course I bought Dean's QRS rear deck lid. Just to keep up my streak of leaving poorer than I came to a swap meet

Thanks for posting those pics. I was on the fence about coming out. Hopefully there will be more teener events in the area I can attend.
