Christmas Intro (914club style), Introduce yourself Options

[cooltimes]

A few years ago I started an annual Christmas Intro on another 914 site.
Seems like it would fit nicely in here too.
Just introduce yourself. Tell the rest of us a little about you and your family, your 914.


Mike Cooley aka Cooltimes, MikeCool
I am a 914 addict or just plain old 914 nut from Memphis TN
Married to "Red" since 1961
We have 1 son, Mike Jr also a 914 person for life
2 Grandsons, Paul and Tony
Pet is Katie cat

I have owned lots of 914's, around 30, since 1970.
My latest, a 1975 914 1.8 fuel injected, was a gift from another 914 group on Rennlist.

Merry Christmas, Happy holidays or whatever.

Shyly walks to the front with head down,

Hello, my name is Scott (Skline)
I am a Porsche addict
They say talking about it helps but as we all know, it doesnt help the problem, it feeds it.
I started in 914's back in 1982 when I got my first one, 1973 red 914 with a 1.7 liter for $2100.00
Been addicted ever since. I currently own a 1974 that started out as a stock 1.8 liter stripped down model. Back in the 80's I saw one converted to a Chalon body style and really liked it and wanted one from then on. Here 20 years later my dream is about to come true. If I can ever get past the little problems of converting and changing everything. Such is life. The addiction is so bad that I am currently high bidder on another one down south and if I dont win that one, I ran across one last night with 1 bad cylinder and no rust for $800.00 also down south. If there is a cure for this, please let me know but so far, all the looking I have done lead to extreme withdrawls that I cannot bear. December 25th is the day I have picked to give up my other addiction of 34 years. They say it is the most heathly decision I could make. Wish me luck with it, smoking is one of the most addictive habits and I have to put it down for good. Merry Christmas to all and a very happy and prosperous New Year to each and every one of you.
