914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Cleaning house & service day at Otto's Venice!!!

Posted by: calipornya Nov 10 2005, 10:50 PM

OK, here's the deal. For those of you who haven't heard, Otto has been around for about a million years. (Actually about 30 in current location)

During that time, he has amassed a fairly large collection of parts for air-cooled Porsches. Everything from engines and parts, to transmissions, body stuff, wiring harnesses, and the list goes on.

As a shop, we are pushing into the next generation. In other words, we need to clear out all this stuff to make room for more equipment and work space, and to make a stronger push back into the racing business.

What I'm looking for here is feedback in regards to public interest in such an event.

For those of you who don't know, we are located at:

707 S. Hampton Dr.
Venice, CA 90291

Let me know what you guys think, and I'll try to put together a Saturday and/or Sunday event.

There is also the possibility we'll have a discounted service day at the same time, with 10-20% off labor for those that come by with their car and it's inherent problems.

Thanks guys!

Are you talking about a sale on parts?

I am sorry, but it wasn't very clear from your post.

Hi John

If you guys spend enough money, and clear out enough stuff, we may even be able to get to to do a keg stand and a table dance

And yes, I'm taking about decent prices on good stuff, and clearing the place out. Deals will be made, souls will be sold, the devil will have his day

Post some photo's of the piles of parts for us non-residents... Maybe we'll see something interesting we can't do without.

Anytime in December other than the 3-4th and I'll be there...

Saturday better than Sunday for me.

Dood:
I sent an email last week about some tranmission parts I need. Got no for a reply.
Youz guys must not want to clear anything out if that is any indication.
