914World.com _ 914World Garage _ wcc award question

Posted by: scott thacher Apr 4 2005, 04:11 PM

Howard, i am wondering if there will be a ghetto 914 award. i am wondering because i will be standing a very good chance of winning it. my car needs a paint job, new carpet, a good cleaning, has a chip in the windshield, a matching seat cushion, a paint job ( its bad enough to say it twice ), probably needs bushings (they are a little rough on the tushy), and a door panel

the things that are okay are the motor, tranny, dash top, tires, front wheel bearsing and rotors, and a few more items

edit things i forgot : need to install my rocker panels, fix a little rust ( about a day of work )

If your car looks better than Frankensteen, you won't win the Trailer Trash Award.

However, it will be a candidate for the "Drunken Club Sawzall Award". You did purchase one way tickets back didn't you? One of the events we have slated is the DCSA...where we randomly pick a teener in great need of being sawzalled....Sounds like you, Brando and A-aron Admin are seriously in the running....We would include SKline's Shalom, but fiberglass makes a mess.

Now this is 914 character and will be the most competitive award

ferrys don't count for mileage. or shouldn't, maybe?. so there would have to be ones for outright distance and driving distance.

well i will will be doing some where between 2700 to 2900 one way. from atlanta is only 2100. is there somebody coming from alaska ?

my starting point is zip 21224 going to sherman tx, to new mexico ( 914 rs ) to vegas to the wcc.

and tonight i cut out the rusty door jam ( around the latch ) and welded in the donor part, next is a small hole on the sail panel, then a 2 by 4 hole in the long, the rest is solid.
