It's that time again. Let's fill up the parking lot. The last two years we had 25--27 cars
Let's beat that. Being as there will be so many people, maybe we can have breakfast and talk about WCR 2019. Toss around ideas and maybe get some volunteers for various
Tasks.

Count me IN

Damn it. I forgot all about this. I need to reschedule the "Foliage Drive".

Posted by: Unpretentious Oct 17 2018, 12:07 PM

Does anyone know when it starts? I’ve checked the PCA website and it doesn’t say. We’re driving down from Central Cal. Will have to leave really early, but don’t want to leave earlier than necessary.

Thanks

Posted by: ValcoOscar Oct 17 2018, 12:36 PM

Hey Jerry--

I usually get there around 7am but feel free to roll in a bit later. Don't eat breakfast beforehand.


Fun to see you and your wife again!!!!

drive safely.....

Oscar

Posted by: Unpretentious Oct 17 2018, 12:56 PM

Thanks Oscar! Yes, we probably won’t make it there at 7 as that’d mean leaving home at 2 am, but we’ll see!

Blessings,
Jerry & Cathy

Posted by: sb914 Oct 17 2018, 01:59 PM

Officially 9:00 am but we usually get there around 7:30 .don't matter what time you arrive. See ya soon.

Posted by: Unpretentious Oct 17 2018, 02:44 PM

Thanks for time spefics Surf Guru. We’re driving to see two of our sons in San Diego that day. I suggested to Cathy we drive the Creamsicle instead of her car, and “leave a bit earlier” to attend the Cone Zone event on our way down. I will stretch “Earlier” as much as I can!

Jerry

Plan to be there.

Posted by: sb914 Oct 22 2018, 09:23 AM

Posted by: 914Toy Oct 22 2018, 09:44 AM

To be sure, which Saturday?

Posted by: 914Toy Oct 22 2018, 09:46 AM

Oops, in the title - Nov. 3rd.

Posted by: Tom_T Oct 23 2018, 05:25 PM

So who all will be there with 914s for this one?

It turns out I'll actually be in town for this one, since our travel plans have changed for Oct/Nov, but still no 914 ready to roll, so we'll be in an alternative vehicle (DD).

However, we may bring along a camping accessory suitable for all Porsches - even our 914s & older cars - which you Teeners who like to camp may like!

Hmmmm ... well some of you know that we already have an OO `88 Westfalia - so what could it be??

The plan is to pick it up this Saturday.

Posted by: ndfrigi Oct 29 2018, 10:53 PM

I will be coming but sorry no 914 yet for now. I can only drive my 986 and yes i will park on the outer parking spots.

Bob Rasam will be joining with one of his 914.

Posted by: Robert21 Oct 29 2018, 10:57 PM

Should be there

Posted by: 914 Ranch Oct 29 2018, 11:06 PM

Get with the program you guys. I once drove from HB to San Jose area to have breakfast with Andy and DD. Had to leave the house at 3am and arrived at 7:30 just in time to say hi before setting down for breakfast.

Count me in...

Posted by: Tom_T Oct 30 2018, 02:28 PM

Well we got it this past Saturday, & many of you have probably seen my other Garage Forum SOT post on the 914 & Porsche Camping Accessory" -

http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=334146&st=0&gopid=2661563&#entry2661563

However - we won't be bringing it to the PCA GPX 914 Breakfast this coming Saturday, because "Cone Meister" Dick Douglas has limited space for you Teeners - & I don't want to take up 1-2 spaces which you folks with 914s can use - but we plan to be there to visit with y'all!

So FYI, I'll do a mini-display below for y'all instead - here are some teaser pix of our new "Toy" - otherwise known as my wife's new "Lil' Pucker"!
(NOT her name for it BTW )





We can tow this with any of our current cars, since it's small car towable with the Westy, & with the `85 325e & `73 914-2.0 - if I put hitches on them. I need to find a factory option BMW E30 Euro Hitch, which I can have a shop duplicate, but with a 2" receiver, which I'd planned to do anyway for our Yakima bike rack. However, I'm not going to cut anything to put a hitch on the 914 after the resto, so that's questionable for us - but others on 914world have done 914 hitch receiver installs.

It's a mostly original (except fabrics & some seals) 1970 Eriba Puck - a German made Export model, & finished fitting-out in CA with the CA-HCD RV/Trailer Approval Plate - so it's considered a USA Import Model. There are quite a few Pucks & the larger Eriba lightweight trailers around the USA (see TheSamba Eriba Puck topic under Accessories), & many more are all over in the UK & Europe.

It's just 12' L (10' L box) x 5.5' W, 660 lbs empty, 70 lbs hitch wt. - sleeps 2-3 at dinette made into bed, 2 burner LP stove, Icebox (some had the optional 3-way fridge), sink & +/-10 gal. fresh water tank (all are USA made appliances & electrical), with an ovail center pop-top lifts for standing room & down to fit in a normal ht. garage.

Cheers!
Tom

Oscar,

Didn't know for sure that we'd be coming, but I just got the Creamsicle back on the road. Hadn't driven it since the Route 66 outing!

Are you going to have some of key chains with you? I'd like to buy at least two.

Thanks,

Jerry

Posted by: ValcoOscar Oct 30 2018, 07:41 PM

Yes sir...I will have some with me. Hope to see you there.

Posted by: Tom_T Oct 31 2018, 10:47 AM

Looks as if I'll be rolling to "914 Cone Zone" this year with about five other teeners from North OC. See ya'll Sat morning.







Don't mind our rumble!!!!!

Oscar

Posted by: Curbandgutter Nov 1 2018, 03:56 PM

WOW looks like I will be driving one of Oscar''s race 914-6's to the event. It's a '74 2.7. It's been 20 years since I have driven a 914. My project is still moving along. Working on floors and waiting for my 3 piece forged rims to come in.

Posted by: drem914 Nov 1 2018, 05:05 PM

Sorry guys, I won't be able to join you this year like last. My car is still getting the engine mated back to the body and I have to go down and pick up my seats from Tony at Autobahn Intiors. They will be finished tomorrow.

Progress photos below. You might notice the bolsters where also deepened about an inch.

Posted by: sb914 Nov 1 2018, 05:35 PM

Seats look great! Come by anyway,you'll still have fun.

Posted by: Larmo63 Nov 1 2018, 06:01 PM

wow that is beautiful! do you mind sharing how much it cost you for it?
thanks!

Posted by: ndfrigi Nov 1 2018, 09:10 PM

Sir Lawrence, why u said ur 914-6 conversion is an UNDERDOG? Maybe this one will be underdog this coming saturday.

Posted by: drem914 Nov 1 2018, 10:32 PM

I would but the pick up is in San Diego at 9 and by the time i get back you guys will be gone.

Posted by: Marv's3.6six Nov 2 2018, 09:37 AM

Always fun hanging with you guys...props to Rudy and Jerry who came in from Murrieta and Madera, Ca

Oscar

Posted by: Tom_T Nov 4 2018, 10:17 AM

The guy with the 356 Cab who was also turned away in putty or light grey (don't recall the Porsche color name) was their GPX Region VP, but the really interesting thing about that one was that it was ORIGINAL paint!

Cone Meister Dick Douglas told me that he had stored it for 30 years in a bubble while he worked overseas!

Great turn-out guys!

I think that they're going to try to have 914s Cone Zone as an annual Nov. event - so I'll see if I can convince our OCR Cone Meister Rob Greene to make ours an annual Spring event for a set month too.

Perhaps some of you in LA, SD, San Gabriel, Riverside & Santa Barbara Regions can see if you can get your local regions/chapters to do a similar thing for your breakfast or other regular events (many haven't started the cone zone idea which OCR started a couple of years ago). Tell them that it's a good way to draw in non-members as potential recruits too.

I was glad that I could make this one after my travel plans away changed, because I had to miss the 9/3 OCR by going to our big annual Cherokee Ceremonial gathering in OK over Labor Day weekend which I do every year.

Cheers!

Guy in middle

Posted by: Curbandgutter Nov 5 2018, 01:28 PM

Oscar I had such a fun time driving your "loud" 74 with a 2.7 6 in it. That puppy loved to bark in between the gears. The last time I drove a 914 was my 6 in 98. It too had a 2.7 so this reminded me how much I missed driving these little go karts. Thanks Again.

BTW thanks for the 916 bumpers. I will be modifying them to work with what I am doing.

Posted by: Curbandgutter Nov 5 2018, 01:29 PM

The guy on the left is me.

Yes...his last name is Aungst
Oscar

Posted by: Cairo94507 Nov 5 2018, 02:20 PM

I am still awestruck that Oscar had 4 of his cars at the Cone Zone and that left 3 still at home! On top of that Oscar was walking around with a box of muffins and other treats in the am for anyone who was hungry. Talk about a nice guy!

I feel fortunate to have gotten in on the group buy for bumper chroming and I know how much effort it takes to put together something like that. I believe he said they ended up with something like 87 bumpers being done.

Posted by: sb914 Nov 5 2018, 03:01 PM

Got em! Thanks.

Posted by: jim_hoyland Nov 5 2018, 05:57 PM

Wow; there was a WCR size crowd there. Good seeing old friends I hadn't seen in years, and good meeting new members. Great day for a gathering....
And thanks to Tom for the tip for driving North without getting on the 405; I'm going to try it........

Posted by: Tom_T Nov 5 2018, 06:11 PM

Great turn-out, & both the OCR & GPX folks all notice what a great turn-out we 914ers get at these breakfasts, the concours, etc.!

That'll work for you Jim, cuz it's worked well for us whether slow & towing, or just with a car! Avoid the 5, 405 & 101 at all costs, is my motto!

Unfortunately, I got to talking to a retired Motor Trend writer/editor Jim Sacz (sp?) who is a GPX member that Dick D introduced us too - great chat with him, but I missed getting around to meet everybody from on here.

I don't know that my 914 resto will be ready for 2019 WCR down south next year, but hopefully I can meet everybody that weekend, & place faces & cars - with names & screen names.

My getting all of the with names & screen names placed with faces is a challenge for me!

It seems like world could do with a member directory that includes everybody, & lists their actual name, screen name & 914(s) which we could search. Maybe make up name badges with your own pix etc. - like they do for 40th & 50th year reunions for old farts like me!?

Cheers!

The group photo is done. You can see it on the pca gpx region website.I'll be getting a high Rez image if anyone wants one.makes a cool poster.looks like they missed a couple cars.

Posted by: Tom_T Dec 5 2018, 07:39 PM

It would be nice to have the screen names of 914world people on there too, since most use ones which are not close to their actual names. I'm always struggling with who is who on here, when it's hard enough to remember 1 name with CRS & Half-zymers!

Just a thought for future things like this poster.

Thanx for doing it again this year - looks great!

Cheers!
Tom
