You bought another 914?  Group: Benefactors Posts: 7,623 Joined: 27-June 03 From: Portage, IN Member No.: 865 Region Association: None

So in a box of parts that came with the racecar I picked up Friday I found The Fall 1990 issue of Mid-Engined View (MEV). This was a quarterly publication of The Porsche 914 Owners Association & The Porsche 914-6 Club USA. Somewhere in our attic is a box that has I think the last few issues of MEV (95-96?).
Reading it a few things stood out to me. The comment about how high gas prices, $1.50 a gallon up from $.97 the year earlier, might cause some to drive their beloved 914 less. The ads from RAYCO body kits, Tweeks, Stoddards, AA, California Concepts, Beach Boys Racing, & Parts Heaven. The tech Session area where George answered question people had on their cars. It is 34 pages and over all a great read. The editing staff in 1990 was: Editor - Dennis Deeds Staff Writer - Helmut Vogel Tech Advisor - George Hussey Historian - L. Trevor St. Claire Graphic Art - Debra Anunti Photography - Sheryl Singer - Deeds Attached image(s)

Its currently owned by another customer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) A short article I wrote was published in MEV sometime around 1986-87. |
