My 914 project is many moons away from completion . . .any chance of renting a 914 for this weekend? Please advise . . .

Posted by: MATCHBOX914 Jul 23 2019, 03:38 PM

Teener Gent's, Can we get a list who would be interested in attending. We will have Ruby's dinner for a food truck. Let's all get this show to happen more often. Closing the whole street would be in the future and have the largest showing of 914's on the planet.

2800 mi. cross country jaunt (for two great events) would be a stretch ....but I'd love to do it.
Sept. vacay in Crete/Rhodes a bit too far I fear.
Wish I could be in two places at once.

The Fun will begin in 6 weeks.

I'm going to be in LA on Saturday for Rare Shades 4, put on by 000 magazine but won't be in a 914.

Any info on parking if you're in a Porsche that isn't AC'ed?? Doesn't look like a lot of space for displays etc when I street map the place.

Posted by: FlacaProductions Aug 26 2019, 08:59 PM

@http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showuser=12732 - When we have gone to this event in the past there has been ample street parking in the area.

Side note: would enjoy saying hello...former Iowan here who gets back with some frequency....

Posted by: MM1 Aug 28 2019, 10:14 AM

2.5 weeks away!

Looking forward to seeing everyone on Saturday and Sunday.

What time does it start and end?

Posted by: MATCHBOX914 Sep 9 2019, 10:54 AM

Thanks for your interest and hope to see you there.

9:00 am to around 1:30. If you have a car and want it displayed earlier the better.

Posted by: Maltese Falcon Sep 9 2019, 11:11 AM

Planning on being there with MattyLite's 2L hotrod. Is this the gathering with ALL aircool vehicles (Corvair etc.) ?

Posted by: MATCHBOX914 Sep 9 2019, 11:30 AM

Our show is dedicated to Air Cooled Porsche vehicles.

Are they dog friendly? My wife wants to bring the dog.

Posted by: drem914 Sep 10 2019, 08:44 PM

It is out on the street. There are plenty of fire hydrants and power poles, so I would assume so.

Posted by: Steve Sep 10 2019, 08:48 PM

Good point... even if they don’t allow dogs in the museum, it won’t be a big deal.

Posted by: drem914 Sep 10 2019, 09:08 PM

See you Saturday and Sunday.

Posted by: oldschool Sep 11 2019, 01:10 AM

what...maybe I can do the sunday run!

Posted by: MATCHBOX914 Sep 11 2019, 10:51 AM

I know this is a late request but please if you have Porsche Parts(any) / collectibles consider our small swap meet as well. $30.00 a spot and you can pay thru the Driving museum web site or pay the day of the show.

Anyone coming up from OC/San Diego that wants to meet up Sunday morning at Ayer's Hotel-Seal Beach to drive in together to the museum, like we did last year?

Posted by: Steve Sep 12 2019, 07:16 AM

Works for me!!

Posted by: 914Toy Sep 12 2019, 09:01 AM

Yes, same Ayers Hotel as Saturday - same time?

Posted by: drem914 Sep 12 2019, 09:50 AM

Meet up and leave Ayer's at 7:30?
We'll be at the museum by 8.

The show was filmed in South Central Los Angeles (Watt's). Where do you get El Segundo ?

Posted by: sb914 Sep 12 2019, 05:37 PM

El Segundo......

Posted by: Carl La Fong Sep 12 2019, 06:03 PM

El Segundo, Inglewood, Torrance. Same-same.

Posted by: Maltese Falcon Sep 12 2019, 07:14 PM

Inglewood is all about RANDY's !¡

On my way!

Posted by: Steve Sep 15 2019, 02:15 PM

Nice to see everyone!! Did anyone take any pictures? Lol

Posted by: drem914 Sep 15 2019, 02:19 PM

A few early shoots






By 11AM, 30-35 914s had come and gone. Not sure what was the final count.
It was good to see some old and new faces. Shout out to Scott for the original '75 marketing brochure.

Posted by: Steve Sep 15 2019, 02:26 PM

Margie, Paul and I went in for Ice Cream. When we came out our two cars were the only two left. Did everyone go out to lunch?

Posted by: drem914 Sep 15 2019, 02:33 PM

When Keith and I were leaving, I went looking for you to say goodbye and couldn't find you. Now I know where you were.

Posted by: SKL1 Sep 15 2019, 03:34 PM

Thought about staying around for this but just the traffic trying to get into the LA for the Rare Shades 4 event on Saturday cured me of staying in the area any longer.
Pete Stout put together an amazing collection of 914's for the Rare Shades event on 9/14 including a great panel discussion including Alan Johnson and several others.

I believe a lady in the back in a wheel chair was the 101 year old original owner of the first 914 sold in LA which was on display. Almost a clone of my car, silver with the aftermarket American mags, which I had before I converted to a 6 suspension with Fuchs.

And the first 916 prototype (Brutus) built for the Piech family!!

Nicely done Pete!!

Thanks to everyone for sharing their photos of the special 914 on 9/14 gathering at the Automobile Driving Museum in El Segundo. A special thanks to David Esparza for organizing this event.

It was so great seeing 34 914s show up to celebrate 9/14 and we loved browsing and looking at all of the cars and chatting with some of the owners. Refreshing ice cream in the Museum's Ice Cream Parlor was quite a treat too.

I'm sorry for this late posting of photos but I just this morning finished posting a lot more photos on the 000 Rare Shades event (go to post started by Andy titled: rarest 914,s @A+d Museum, on display rare 914's on display) and now was able to organize the El Segundo photos.

Enjoy!
Margie & Paul


So, here they are:
