First report from Hershey, rain rain rain Options

[yarin]

Sitting here in the lobby of the Sheraton Four Points hotel watching the rain come down in Hershey. The swap meet was ok. Tradition continued and the skies never let up. People packed up around 1pm or so. Not that much 914 stuff.

Met a few 914ers, bought some good stuff off Engman. Going to the Rennlist dinner tonight, should be fun. Those who passed because of the weather made the right decision.

I'm so tired of the friggin rain. So this is how I did Hershey:

Spent a week down in Virginia Beach with the wife and kids. Had to butter her up for the Hershey trip. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) We arrived in Hershey on Thursday, it was sunny and 82. Spent Friday running around with the wife and kids, we did the tours over at Hershey Park and did dinner at Fuddruckers. Was a little wiped out from the previous week so I didn't head out to any of the Friday night events. Was very very disappointed (but not really surprised) when I got up today and it was raining. Guess we can't break the rain tradition. My wife and kids were great and made one lap through the vendor tents with me before bailing out for the comfort of the mini-van. Saw Ed Morrow, Bob Roach, and Engman. Thought I saw the elusive Rich Herzog but when I turned around he was gone. It was great to see everyone even if I appeared a bit odd in my swim trunks and denim shirt. Not a lot of deals but I was looking for specific items (see below). My wife wasn't feeling well so we decided to head back to Mass. Only took 5.5 hours as traffic wasn't bad.

I was (and still am) looking for a pair of 16X7 Fuchs for my front end. I'm not looking for concours quality just straight wheels. M030 Suspension package for 968, Corbeau Classic II's or 914 Sport seats.

That about covers it. I'm posting a WTB in the classifieds for the items I'm still searching for.

My best to all,
Mike D.

Thats the only reason I really went was hopefully to find some seats I like. I have a hard time spending 2000 on seats I have never put my butt in. So yeah one thing I was ready to buy and no one had them.

I thought I saw on another thread that gtsclassics was gonna be there but I didn't see them.

Saw one truck full of the dirtiest race seats ever! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)


Now if someone could tell me how to strap my beverage cooler to the car since it doesn't tell ya (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I took a few pictures. I will post them tomorrow. The black 914 was nice. The silver one for sale was also.
