I was on the internet the other day looking for car badges. I found this company in Montana. It is called Western Awards and Engraving Company. On his web page he had a car badge for the 914 Club. I asked him if I could buy one and he told me I would go to the 914 Club to buy one.
So does anybody know who has these ( picture attached)? Attached image(s) |

Not true! The blue/white/black badge was made for the defunct 914 Club that was headquartered in Oakley, CA. Alex Buller and Barbara LaFargue formed the Porsche 914 Club out of frustration over Dennis Deeds' 914 Owners Association. Dennis was the "benevolent dictator" who owned the organization, and subsequently presided in perpetuity. When Alex had a stroke, and died the Club went down fast. I was VP of the Club for over two years, and did the Newsletter for about a year and a half. I was asked to take over, but having been recently married, a kid on the way, and two businesses (one of which is my 914 shop), I declined, and I guess so did the future of the Club. Jeff Gacek of Diversified Grafics Inc. built the original website, and Glenn Stazak maintained the site for about three years after Jeff stepped aside. There's more nitty gritty dirty details, but who cares? The wine glasses were also made for the same organization, for one of the 914 Club "Renegade Festivals" in Solvang, CA. |
