914 cone zone pca meet, Seal beach.. Saturday November 3rd. Options

[sb914]

It's that time again. Let's fill up the parking lot. The last two years we had 25--27 cars
Let's beat that. Being as there will be so many people, maybe we can have breakfast and talk about WCR 2019. Toss around ideas and maybe get some volunteers for various
Tasks.

So who all will be there with 914s for this one? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

It turns out I'll actually be in town for this one, since our travel plans have changed for Oct/Nov, but still no 914 ready to roll, so we'll be in an alternative vehicle (DD).

However, we may bring along a camping accessory suitable for all Porsches - even our 914s & older cars - which you Teeners who like to camp may like!

Hmmmm ... well some of you know that we already have an OO `88 Westfalia - so what could it be?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

The plan is to pick it up this Saturday.

Well we got it this past Saturday, & many of you have probably seen my other Garage Forum SOT post on the 914 & Porsche Camping Accessory" -

http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...p;#entry2661563

However - we won't be bringing it to the PCA GPX 914 Breakfast this coming Saturday, because "Cone Meister" Dick Douglas has limited space for you Teeners - & I don't want to take up 1-2 spaces which you folks with 914s can use - but we plan to be there to visit with y'all!

So FYI, I'll do a mini-display below for y'all instead - here are some teaser pix of our new "Toy" - otherwise known as my wife's new "Lil' Pucker"!
(NOT her name for it BTW (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) )





We can tow this with any of our current cars, since it's small car towable with the Westy, & with the `85 325e & `73 914-2.0 - if I put hitches on them. I need to find a factory option BMW E30 Euro Hitch, which I can have a shop duplicate, but with a 2" receiver, which I'd planned to do anyway for our Yakima bike rack. However, I'm not going to cut anything to put a hitch on the 914 after the resto, so that's questionable for us - but others on 914world have done 914 hitch receiver installs.

It's a mostly original (except fabrics & some seals) 1970 Eriba Puck - a German made Export model, & finished fitting-out in CA with the CA-HCD RV/Trailer Approval Plate - so it's considered a USA Import Model. There are quite a few Pucks & the larger Eriba lightweight trailers around the USA (see TheSamba Eriba Puck topic under Accessories), & many more are all over in the UK & Europe.

It's just 12' L (10' L box) x 5.5' W, 660 lbs empty, 70 lbs hitch wt. - sleeps 2-3 at dinette made into bed, 2 burner LP stove, Icebox (some had the optional 3-way fridge), sink & +/-10 gal. fresh water tank (all are USA made appliances & electrical), with an ovail center pop-top lifts for standing room & down to fit in a normal ht. garage.

Cheers! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
