Speaking of Original, Another Top Prize to a 914 Options

[dcheek]

I'm happy to report that once again a 914 won first in class for Porsches at our ninth annual All Air Cooled Gathering on September 22nd. Congratulations Len Coloccia and his beautiful red low mileage original '74 914. This car was a perfect example of a well preserved and prepared 914.

While the overall turnout for the event was down from last year, the 241 cars that did attend ended up enjoying a beautiful sunny autumn day. This was actually quite surprising considering the dismal forecast for the weekend. It was however, a record turnout for Porsches; 19 total. Everything from 50's 356's to 993 911's.

Thanks to all that attended.


Here's a list of the Porsche Class winners:

Len Coloccia ’74 Porsche 914
Lake Underwood ’57 Porsche Speedster
Steve Raiteri ’71 Porsche 911E

It looks to me that the areas that appear black ARE gloss black. If that's the case....why?!

Yes, the trunk areas are painted black. Previous years when Frank owned the car, it was a negative point. I was curious when Len told me he won, I asked if anyone pointed that out. He said trunks and lids were closed for judging. I would have stayed for judging if that was the case. I drive my car more than I detail the engine compartment!

That being said, Len shopped around and got himself a beauty!
