914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Bonehead Move Of The Month Award

Posted by: Cuda911 Sep 10 2014, 02:11 AM

This past Sunday I had an autocross in my 996.

So, Saturday evening I was getting everything prepped and ready.

The 914 was in the garage. There's a shelf in the garage where I keep my helmets.

%$!&@!.... While getting down a helmet, I dropped it right onto the hood of the 914! Left a half-dollar sized pock mark.

Took it to a paintless dent removal guy today and he fixed it. $100.

What a bonehead move!!! Is there an award for that?

Anyway, there were about five 914s at the autocross. This one was pretty cool:

I hate when that happens. It was in slow motion too wasn't it?

Hope there weren't any kids around cause I know you dropped a few F bombs. I can laugh because I've managed to make a few new dents myself. Fortunately for me, my neighbor owns a dentless biz so we always trade off.
