Here in the great flat lands, seeing an unknown 914 is kinda like seeing Big Foot: It don't happen very often unless you are halucinating. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)
Nonetheless, as I turned from my country road onto the blacktop, what do I see but a black teener sporting some beautiful flares w/ external fastners (Dzus?), a euro Porsche /VW emblem on the back panel, and a new plate registration tag. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) Even though I was going the other way, I swing a u turn, and catch up to him at the first stop light. At that point he was going straight, and I had to go right, but I did get a chance to tell him to come check us out here, and gave him my name and how to contact me. I hope he shows up, and introduces himself. I know out left, seeing another 914 ain't no thang, but here, it really was a rush. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Hopefully another member for the Chicago area contingent. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) With the temp tags, it was probaby a recent sale. Does the car sound familiar to anybody? |

Were you in your 914 or a "normal" car? Track it down and keep us posted! That's the great thing, only on a last second whim, I was driving my black 914. When I walked out to my shop, I literally had my hand on the door handle of the Oldsmobubble, and one of the many voices in my head said "dood, it's a little cool today, but you need some 914 seat time". So, I pulled the cover off the V8 and fired her up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) When the guy in the 914 passed me, he had a pretty funny look of amazement on his face when he waved to me. |
