Okay wondering if anyone feels the calling to be our WCR trophy maker . We will come up with something if nobody want's to do it. There have been some seriously cool trophies done over the years. We will gladly pay for materials. Anyway just figured to throw it up on the world & see if anyone was drawn to it.

I will get something figured for the awards if nobody wants to do something kinda special. Anyway if you have something in mind shoot me a PM. I've got 2 sweet one's made from Tranny gears & misc parts on my shelf from a previous WCR. I personally love that stuff. Hoping for something unique to give for awards

How many do we need made??

I'm up for the challenge. . .

I might be able to come up with some. I have 4 stock connecting rods from my Audi engine that I could weld to a base plate..

Could be as few as 3 or as many as 10. LOL! Good question. Guess I need to narrow down how many we will be doing for the show & shine. Always varies a bit. What awards would people like to see.

Best of show 914 categories:
Original 4cylinder
Original 6 cylinder
Porsche Engine conversion (not just size but best overall job)
Water cooled Engine conversion (not just size but best overall job)
Flared 914
Coolest non 914
Furthest distance travelled
driving Project

How does that sound? I'm open to whatever

Don't forget the most important trophy, "That Guy" award! Leave room for us to cross out the "guy" so "Girl" can be written in if necessary!

Jamie, do you guys want to do the engraved nameplates so they are all the same? I was looking at this place online. Looks like they can do them for $2ea plus shipping engraved. We can stick them on at the WCR.

That would be perfect. You guys just need to have a spot we can stick them. Thanks for being willing. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Just let us know what size they are so we can leave a space large enough. I will NOT need a plate for the "That guy/gal" award. It's already done and turned out pretty sweet.
