914World.com _ 914World Garage _ I saw you! Oakland Redwood Heights area

Posted by: ConeDodger Oct 18 2015, 07:36 PM

Saw this beauty Friday while I was on Hwy 13 between Berkeley and 580. I saw the unmistakable shape of a 914 and had to scoot a little to catch up. This was taken just one exit before 580 heading to Hayward about 5-6PM...

It looks silver in the picture but I recall it being more white??? Naturally, at 60mph I had to pay a bit of attention to the traffic.

Oh! I recall seeing what may have been a bald or shaved head as I went by...

Yep, that's me. Did you honk? Seem to recall someone honking at me that day.

Man, my car looks awesome in slightly out of focus pictures!

Nope, L96D, silver metallic. Funny, I grew up being told this was the "proper" Porsche color. Yet at Rennsport, I was the only 914 in my color!

Yup... Honk honk! biggrin.gif

Ah, so it was YOU. I looked around to see if it was someone I knew, and did not recognize any of the cars around me.

I was on one of my test runs while swcrewing around with my jetting. The car was actually not running well when you saw me, but I have it pretty close now.

Did you have a 2056 that burned a bearing after your rebuild? If so, I think I met you once up by Monaghan's when I was dropping my old friend Victor off at the bar last year.

Pretty sure I remember you. Broken crank, not a burned bearing.
