914World.com _ 914World Garage _ So. Cal get together and drive
Posted by: Headrage Jul 28 2005, 12:07 PM
It looks like I'm actually going to have a full free day on Saturday the 13th.
Anybody wanna get together and do the P.V. Peninsula and beach cruise???
Maybe start at Point Fermin in San Pedro then end up in Hermosa, have lunch and then do it again back to Pedro.

August my friend. That's only 2 weeks away so you should still be in.
Posted by: phantom914 Jul 28 2005, 03:36 PM
OK So is it Saturday or is it the 10th? Can't be both at the same time in August.

Allan, FYI I drove the 2.0 over the Grapevine today, S to N. Ran at 3600-3800 in 5th the whole way. Nudged 240 on the oil temp, within limits. Back to 220 on level, 180 on downhill. BTW, if you ever want to meet at Frazier Mtn and do the run to the beach via 33 and 150, let me know. I do it about once a month.
Will try to make your party.

It is with great sadness that I must announce the passing of the desperado "Der Weisze Bandit". His passing came without a whimper or a clatter.
All went well with the alt transplant and the juices flowed again. However, during the valve adjust, it was noted that no clearance could be obtained on Intake #2. Despite extreme emergency procedures, it was determined that Mr. Intake no longer wanted to be part of the family and was packing to leave. The only noticeable effects were an inability to rev smoothly and a sporadic muffled "pop..pop". While his heart was still beating, it was not performing up to required standards.
Der Weisze Bandit had always insisted on passing quietly into the past. His 31 years had been filled with joyous rides thru the desert underneath blankets of bright stars. He survived the WCC05 and the infamous Route 66 Classic. He was last motored thru the tall pines and twisty roads of Big Bear by the owner's son.
While a transplant could have possibly extended his life another few years, interest has waned and the impetus for same cannot be stirred.
The owner wishes no donations nor bags of rust be sent in his honor. For those of you who so desire, a wake will be held at Tri Alloy in Ontario, CA as the his heart and heads are melted into high spec aluminum sows to later be made into Coors "Silver Bullet" cans or Kias...whichever comes first. Date for said wake will be announced later.
At 11:59 PM tonight, a moment of silence will be observed with my eyes closed and loud snore. It was a wonderful and joyous experience he bestowed in my life. "Cry not for me Germany".....................

Well, I just got home and unloaded all of my spare rear brake calipers.......
Turns out Allan's car suffered a catastrophic brake failure. We gt him up and runnin enough at least to get back to Joe Sharp's. My wife and I went back home on the 'fun run' route and what a gorgeous route it is! Except for the traffic (which would not be there in the morning) it was fantastic.
Breakfast was great! Good groupshowed upfor breakfast and we slowly but surely took over the parking lot. A plastic Cobra showed up at one point.
Can't wait to do another one of these!

A good time was had by all I hope... Tony definitely was the hero of the day. His assortment of calipers and usable pads are what got Allan's car back on the road.
Oh yeah, don't go to Parts Plus for brake pads. Nor Autozone and Kragen. Seems no regular parts retailer stocks them -- ever.
Good luck Allan, thanks again Tony, Thomas, Joe, Aaron... Real pleasure Maybe next time we'll get to do the fun-run part as well.

Yeah Mike. If you were there you would of had your hand in our pockets as well.
I just have to send out a big thanks to Tony, Thomas, Brando and Aaron.
Looks like the car's going back on the jack stands for some new brakes all the way around.
Nothing scarier than seeing brake lights ahead of you and having your pedal go to the floor.
Posted by: Brando Aug 14 2005, 10:49 PM
Hey, while you're in there ...
how about some body-matching caliper paint? You can get silver or gray from Eastwood online...
