G&R ALL 914 RUSTY PARTS SWAP MEET AND ANIMAL FLESH ROASTING, A Rusty Parts / Gastrointestinal Festival of Merit Options

[SLITS]

Greetings from the bowels of the earth ... Riverslime, CA. It is that time of year for all Porcupines to gather again before the coming of winter. I announce the whatever version of the G&R All 914 Rusty Parts Swap Meet and Animal Flesh Roasting Festival. . The date shall be OCTOBER 28, 2012.The super-secret location for this momentous event is 2727 Kansas Ave, Riverside, CA, 92507, hereafter known as Pig Hollow. It doesn't smell as good as Beaver, but we have less flies.

There are several notable changes in the venue, so pay attention to the following:

1.) After many beatings and hours under the heat lamps, I have been forced to accept the fact that we are now an official Region 8?/15? PCA event. To honor this major change in structure, I will be the one in the gold tinted Tuxedo using my favorite aftershave of wine and old cheese***.

2.) The PCA has awarded us sufficient sponsorship monies to purchase a new BBQ. This will allow us to burn the bovine flesh and Suidae family of even-toed ungulates flesh in a more even manner than before. We cannot guarantee that it will taste any better.

3.) We will make every effort to provide Veggie burgers to those that are so inclined. We will also provide lo/no fat tasteless cheese for these burgers so that the pretentious ones can feel good about themselves.

4.) Even though we are official, we will not deviate from our previous venue of not charging entrance, parking or swap space fees. The G&R has always been free with the exception of food and shall remain so.

Again I must warn those with lower than stock vehicles to be aware of the approach to the rear gate. Front valences and mufflers are especially subject to the 5 degree ramp required by the City of Riverside so please angle in to avoid leaving parts in the gutter.

You again will be able to view Glenns' 3.0 conversion on jackstands. To make sure the shell is stable, we have welded the jackstands to the shell as it will probably remain in this state for years.

Albertos' 3.0 conversion will not be available for public viewing as the blew off the offer for me to store it while he gets his act together. It will continue to reside in his garage collecting rat/mice turds and dust.

Depending upon time, we may have a bonfire. I intend to remove the drivetrain from the Slitsalom, roll it outside, douse it with gasoline and burn the body. Those wishing to dance around it must wear a loin cloth and carry spears.

Er(i)c Shea may again show off his fully polished trailer as the GT replica that sits on it probably won't be running due to his superior knowledge of 914 assemblies.

All Porsche vehicles are now welcome, but I refuse to change the title of this event to accommodate them. 911s will no longer be designated as parts cars for conversions, but it is ok to refer to them as that.

Remember there is only one Unisex bathroom, so don't bring your gastrointestinal problems with you.

Bringing your own libations is perfectly acceptable, but don't get out of hand. Excreting those libations in the parking lot behind objects is not acceptable. Pinch it off or plug it and await your turn in the Unisex restroom. If your libations are in glass bottles, please take care not to leave broken glass on the ground.

The Menu:

For Breakfast, we will provide coffee and donuts. If you bring your own breakfast make sure it is eaten prior to arrival or bring enough for everyone.

For the Flesh Roasting part of this event, we will again have burgers, hot dogs/bratwurst accompanied by chips and macaroni/potato salad.

If Joe shows up with his variations of Chili ... it's DAMN GOOD and will stay with you for a minimum of 24 hours.

We will have soda and water on hand also.

We are not funded for the food we provide so we will ask for a $5.00 donation per person if you decide to partake in our fabulous culinary offerings.

I will open the gate between 6:00 and 6:30 AM. Please don't bitch if I'm a little late as I have to get up at 4:00 AM to accomplish this feat and that usually puts me in a really bad mood. Hell, the chickens are still asleep at that time.

So, please bring all your unwanted rusty junk and try to sell it to someone else. We are especially fond of conversion parts and get first shot at them.

In case you get lost on your way, the following phone numbers may or may not be useful:

Ron: (951) 751-3584
Glenn: (951) 235-7349

Now, I realize that this announcement is probably tame compared to the others I have written, but give me a freakin' break. While I am wont to insult eveyone and everything, I'm trying to class up my act in light of our new status. It's worse than trying to quit smoking.

We hope to see all of you here. The G&R is and was always a gathering of friends and is dedicated to that idea.

If I have missed anything, please send me a PM. It will be politely ignored.

***And finally, thanks go out to Jim Lamonica and the rest of the PCA members for thinking so highly of us and providing the new BBQ. We deserve it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Oldschool, what was the name of the guy you bought the sidemarker lights from?
That dude saved my ass! I bought an AFM from him and that's why my car is on the road again!

I owe him a beer!

I believe that was Gary from Big Bear.

It was a whirlwind from beginning to end as usual.

Thanks to all the sellers and buyers; to friends old and new. I am glad that Kent made a few beans for Al's wife.

And Elliot .... I can't thank you enough for the memories.
