I dropped my car to Translog yesterday, I parked next to a bueatiful forest green 356. I was in a row of 911's 924,s and 944,s. I walked inside to find a red 914 on a lift, and then I noticed an Orange 73 Racecar. Looked like a 2.0 w/ carbs, had a rollcage w fireextinguisher mounted. Momo steering and a sparco seat. No interior other than the door panels. Car had ohio plates but the guy said the customer is from Illinoise.
Anybody here ??? Tony runs an awesome shop (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...amp;hl=translog |

Wow, you just blew the lid off of the rumor that 1, No shops work on 914's and 2, that no one would allow anothers hand on his/her 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

I almost drove down there today to say hi. But I got in the car and felt like I was drunk driving so I just came home instead. Guess I'm not as better as I thought I was.
Joe, do you know if Tony is going to be at Hershey? Zach |

Only 2 914s? When I dropped Sparky off (my electric 914) at Sean Molloy's shop there were at least 6 914s inside and a row of "parts" 914s in the back. Oh, and he is loaning shop space to a replica Ghostbusters car. How cool is that? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

I would say that it's a good sign for there to be other 914s at the shop you take yours to, thats why I take mine to AA, lots of 914's there.

Translog is Gary Wigglsworth's old shop and Tony bought it from him. Tony is a good dude. No need to seek further.

Instead of yelling for the admins inside a thread you might want to consider sending a PM to an admin ... Contrary to popular belief, we don't read all your posts all the time ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |
