914World.com _ 914World Garage _ G&R ALL 914 RUSTY PARTS SWAP MEET AND ANIMAL FLESH ROASTING FESTIV

Posted by: SLITS Sep 23 2009, 07:50 PM

Well, since Sept 18-20th have been taken up by so many quality events, Glenn, I and the PCA have decided that the date for the Premire Event of the Fall will be October 25th, 2009. Please mark your calendars accordingly.

For those of you that have never attended, it is held at 2727 Kansas Ave, Riverside, CA., 92507 in the back parking lot. Gate will be open about 6:30 AM for early arrivers. Again, the Animal Flesh Roasting will begin about 10 AM or when I decide to light the BBQ.

Swap spaces are always free.

For the early insomniacs, cat turd coffee with fat pills will be available to tide you over until the feast. We searched far and wide for the most yuppie coffee we could find and found that it comes out of the ass of a cat.

President Obama has informed us that this swap meet is critical to his stimulus program, but was a bit miffed when we informed him that he could not dictate his menu to us of Maine Sea Spider, Kansas City Hand Rubbed/Beer Fed Steak, Idaho Baked Potatoes, Nebraska Sweet Corn, Libefraumilch Wine & Pillsbury Puffed Rolls. We're not the Gubermint and can't afford to give away shit below cost.

For the following delacies, we ask for a $5.00 donation per consumer to cover the cost and preparation.

The menu will be:
1.) Ground and roasted bovine ass, guaranteed to be MSD and hormone free. There is no guarantee as to other constituents, but then parts are parts.
2.) Smoked parts encased in an intestinal tube and roasted till the grease is pouring out.
3.) Both items will be housed in cheap non-nutritional white bread in varying shapes to please the skin-heads that attend.
4.) Codiments for the above will include ground yellow seeds (the green ones are reserved for tea or smoking) dissolved in vinegar, no food value leafs, stinky white onions with or without grease, a fruit normally sold as a vegtable sliced, shrunken pickled cucumbers, ketchup mixed with mayonnaise and left over pickled cucumbers and anything else we find in the reefer.
5.) Imbidments will include purified water in plastic containers so as to cause plastic poisoning. For those that are concerned, we will offer eco-friendly spun aluminum so that plastic poisoning is not a concern. We will share in the Alzheimers though. Additionally, we may or may not offer containers cut from the Rain Forest or created by better living through chemistry. We value the health of all of our Guests.
6.) Sugar laced phosphoric acid, in varying colors, with artificial flavoring will be on hand.
7.) If you desire fermented grain liquids or liquid bread, you must bring your own. While we do not frown upon ingesting these materials, we will not be responsible for any accidents, which leads us to the next section ....

There is one uni-sex water closet avaliable. We ask that you be courteous of your fellow swapper and knock on the door. Bbarging in is not an acceptable practice no matter how much bread or fermented grains you have consumed. We ask the males to aim carefully and females to remain seated during the entire process. Which brings up another section that is highly important ...

The window of said water closest opens to the area where we prepare the feast and guests prepare their plates. Offensive odors can be tolerated if you bring your own air freshner, but the moaning and groaning may upset some. In that light we ask that you preform your required duties in a subdued fashion. If you are having a hard time, we do have a 3 stage vacuum pump available.

Ass-gaskets may or may not be available so if you are concerned make sure your aim is true. We will have plenty of Automobile Altanta catalogs available for completing the desired tasks.

As always, 914s are totally welcome. We do not, however, participate in the "Cash For Clunkers" program. We do support the "Cash For Over-Priced Clunkers" program and we are assured there will be plenty on hand for the event.

Assdraggers are acceptable, but you must keep in mind that we consider them to be parts cars and they will be treated accordingly. For those ass-dragger pilots that are unable to move their vehicles due to missing parts, they will be forklifted or pushed into the street before the gate is closed for the local Blue Meanies or Gang Bangers to take care of after dark.

Speaking of darkness, it is only fair to warn you that the entire facility is under 24 hour video, with night vision cameras. For those of you that like to frolic in the darkness or do un-natural things with your friends or bodies, we ask you to refrain. The video reviewer gets off on this stuff and his screams of delight on Monday morning are quite disturbing. Additionally, using the parking lot as your personal water closest will probably upset your fellow swappers as their parts may accelerate rusting to the point where they disappear and we don't want anyone to lose money.

If you have a severly lowered vehicle, without hydraulics, we recommend you enter the area as close to the gate controller (driver's left entering, and driver's right exiting) as possible. Dragging your ass on the ground or guide rail is not an acceptable practice. Any parts that are ripped off immediately become property of the G&R A9RPSM & AFRF and will not be returned. Additionally, you will be charged for the repair of the guide rail.

For those of you driving high profile vehicles, you may enter anywhere you like but please not thru the fence. You may own a 4X4 with 33s, but we really don't give a shit. We may or may not charge for overlength and overheight vehicles. That will be up to the discretion of Professor 914 who monitors the gate with a towel on his head and an AK47.

For you males, we ask that you bring your S.O.s because they smell better and eat less.

The venu of the event is held in "Super Secret Admin Forums", so don't ask or we will have to kill you after we tell you.

The freebie pile will be located in the same place it always has been. For those of you dragging in unsaleable junk and not wishing to take it back you may pile it there for the treasure hunters of the group. For those with complete junk hulks, please do not place them there. We have a SawzAll available, but electricity is costly and bring your own blades. No assistance will be offered during cutting. We may laugh and point, but will not get our hands dirty.

Well, that's about it for this installment. If you have never attended, you will meet some of the most disparging characters existing in the universe. Most have been convicted of one thing or another and we will have a judge on hand to convict those virgins that have never had the experience.

For those wishing directions, go fish or buy a GPS. I will post cell phone numbers later, but no guarantees that they are correct or will be answered if you call.

For those of you that have any complaints or are disturbed by what is written here, our complaint department can be reached by calling (909) 650-5412. We highly recommend the services offered. If you are not completely satisfied, please post your concerns on www.914club.com.

Thank you for your attention and we hope to see you here. If you wish to avoid us ... go to hell.

Glenn, I (Ron, Slits, Professor 914, Scrappy & Pappy914) and the PCA ( av-943.gif ) will welcome all comers. Who you talk to will depend upon how much money you are carrying, if you have anything we want and your attitude.

All I really want is World Peace.

Where do you come up with this stuff? LMAO. Looking forward to it. And if you ever do have a menu of Fried Chicken, Collard Greens, Okra, Grits and Watermelon AND Cornbread, I'll be the first in line. Unless of coarse the President is there in which case I will be #2 in line.

I would join you in that meal.

All of this is just a feeble attempt to bring some humor into an otherwise dreary world (no pun intended).

Thanks ...

Any high profile vehicles (24s and up), towing a trailer with a teener on it, will be subject to a hefty gate fee. It will double again for Lorenzos. Now, add spinning wheel covers ... we may reduce the fee.

Yes sir ... dem conspicious consumers are gonna pay!!

I posted this response over at the CLub site, so I felt I should man-up and post it here:

To be honest, I was a little put off by some of the comments in the invitation. The nation elected a president whom is black. Get over it.

I went to the swap meet last year and found a couple of bargains. I'll gladly support 914 vendors and swap meet participants, but thinly veiled racism is absolutely out of bounds.

Have a good time, but I really want nothing to do with this event.

It's not a matter of knowing anyone, it's that the invitation included clearly inappropriate language which did not add anything positive to the posting. Maybe I'm the only person on this board that was offended, but IMHO the wording I highlighted served no purpose other than to insult a person of color.

I've said what I felt I needed to say. I will not respond further to this thread.

That is the thing....when GWB was President, the requested menu was Grits and Beans.........when Clinton was President, the requested menu was Cigars and fries. IMO, the G&R invitation is one of the funniest threads each year.

I am an equal opportunity offender nor am I of the ilk that is politically correct. I will insult any dickwad, procrastinating, power hungry politico that shows his two faced face without regard to race, creed or color in any manner I think is funny (to me anyway).

Inappropriate language ... get a life. Nothing said in that post was out of the ordinary for any converstation you would hear at any event.

You should have called the number I listed and registered your complaint. It's a real number and I put it in there purposely.

So, as a favor to you, I will delete the line so you may feel good.

And as far as not showing up 'cause your panties are in a wad ... there's a line at the end for you. This is not a commercial venture .. never has been ... never will be. I don't sell anything and don't want to sell anything. This "event" was started many years ago as a social gathering and for those that want to bring stuff to sell, space was given at no change to lay it out. My playground ... my rules.

If the event never happened again, it would be ok by me. It's a fair amount of work for zero profit monitarily, but the reward of seeing people, seeing them get what they need and the smiles are worth it.

**Legal Disclaimer** If you find something offensive in this post ... to effin' bad.

Actually, The President is only half black. He is also half white, so do you see the glass as half empty or half full?

And FWIW, I am Mexican and LOVE Fried Chicken, Grits, and Watermelon. What does that have to do with the price of rice in China, or the price of Beans in Mexico? I also really enjoy Kung Pao Chicken and French Fries.

It's ok Kevin .... I was going to PM one of the Admins and tell them to delete the entire post, but then figured they would anyway if it got out of control.

Those that want to come know the date now. That's what's important. Those that don't, don't need to know.

Once a year I try to write some levity into life, fully knowing that my attitudes and thoughts and the fact that I am a crochty, ill-willed old man will offend someone and "Damn, I like this job".

Posted by: ghuff Sep 28 2009, 06:57 PM

White people eat collard greens, water melon and fried chicken too. Asians do also.

I don't see what the issue is? Why would anyone be offended? Do you have race guilt?

In fact when my friends who happen to be black, because well they stayed in africa while my ancestors migrated north, have cookouts, we all eat that together. Pretty funny how that all works.

Get over it. It is 2009.


If you watch the Dave Chappele show, you would be much more offended than whatever is in this post and thread.


Race is a joke, and a social construction that is dated. Science speaks otherwise.

You are all technically african americans, life originated in Africa.

For what it is worth, I was killing myself laughing. You guys are so lucky to have these events and cars around you. I suspect their are only five or six 914's in all of Nova Scotia so it is a hoot to read about all the goings on down your way.

For the /6 2.4 - I thought you told me they were the same? Both 6 bolt?

Posted by: SLITS Oct 19 2009, 08:10 PM

The early 6 fits all the 6 bolt cranks, even though after '70 they went to the 225mm clutch with a different flywheel assembly.

You have one in your future ... a 901 6 bolt flywheel for a six conversion.

If you want the stock shit, I will have to look.

Posted by: ahdoman Oct 19 2009, 11:08 PM

Ron - I just need a flywheel to bolt to the 2.4 crank while I'm building the engine so I can turn the engine over. It doesn't need to be nice. (BTW - I'll be bringing the wheels with me).

Also - to anyone else - I'm also looking for a chrome windshield washer spigot. Doesn't need to be perfect. I need it to match the other used one I have.

I really like the look of this car. Who owns it?

Posted by: kafermeister Oct 25 2009, 08:07 PM

It's been a long time but I seem to think Gint's car looked like that.

Wills actually drove out? Or was the Urban Assault 'Burban parked out back?

Yeh, Wills drove his out. Said it was a wonderful trip thru the desert.

And those wheels are MINE mad.gif .... yours are in a stack in the garage. I suppose you want me to remove the tires from them.

Thanks for all that showed up. It was, as usual, fun! I hope everyone got the deal they were after and that sellers made gas money.

I'm tired .............

Nice color! smile.gif

Nice wheel flares too - much more aesthetic than the factory M471/GT style & shape, which I never liked! ....those are smoooooth & sleek! drooley.gif

I had repainted my 73 2L a similar but a bit darker "Anthracite Grey Metallic" with medium & light blue hand pin-striping back in 1980, but it will be going back to the original L80E Light Ivory when I do the upcoming resto!

Attached Image

It's dusty from holding down blocks in my garage since 5/85 & still has the body damage to repair.

My theory was.......the dark grey would blend better with the pavement to avoid getting pulled over so often, since I was within a point of the CA limit back then! driving.gif

I didn't get pulled over so much after repainting, but I don't know if it was the color or....???

Hope it works for you! biggrin.gif

It killed me to miss this event, but I had deadlines to meet & couldn't get away for the day! sad.gif

haha.. well it's a 1970 factory 6 that i brought from a good friend of mine up north. it was my birthday present i got for myself back in 2004 beer.gif the rims are just simply 15x7 and 15x8 fuchs from an SC, which i just did a home rattle can spray job, so there isn't too much to tell there.. but i can't take any credit for them flares. i was told that someone did the paint, black trim, and debatch, flare job back in the 80's. so far them flares have been holding up pretty good for being made outta bondo.. blink.gif but since it's starting to show some cracks now, i'm planning on tuning them flares a little and repaint the gun metal grey. tho i'm gonna make sure that i keep the possibility of taking it back to factory original someday.

over all, i think these flares are decent. some ppl like them and some ppl don't think they look so hot.. to me the front ones turned out bit better, the rear ones might have turned out a bit too round on the opening for my taste.. it looks to me that this person was going for the SC look, and sorta lost that signature 914ness that partially covers the upper part of the rear tire, which to me is the more of the boxed wheel well opening look. not to mention because how the rear tire is fully shown, it tricks the eyes to think this car has a muscle car stink bug stance..

being a factory 6, to many ppl this might be a shameful thing to do. but since i don't plan on selling this car, and the fact that someone had already done some flare mods to it. it's a total guilt free car that i'd like to have fun with before i get old and anal.. hey why not? it's mine car.. biggrin.gif

She used to be mine! And those rims are not Rotas, just factory 15" fuchs. It's the all black that make them look bigger.

Jack is doing a great job of making subtle improvements.
