The weather for the Portland Parade was perfect, and Portland is a great city with beautiful driving roads. I have many photos of the few 914s I could find at the event. I was hoping to see over fifty 914s,but I guess with the Concours held on a monday I could see it may have been difficult to attend for the westcoast clubs. One surprise was to see another LE BUMBLEBEE in great condition,which was my first in person besides mine,and it happens to have been owned before by the one and only Jeff Bowlsby. So I have some 914 shots I would like to share with all of you.

Nick those are such excellent photos I will put them on the LE website if you dont mind with photographer credit. Jim Smiths Six looks like an incredible car, I can only hope to see it in person someday. Maybe San Diego if he drives to the Parade like he has in the past.
Thats Carl Latzels LE (from Victoria BC) and it was indeed my first BB, that car started my quest regarding the LE cars. I sold it to Carl about 2.5 years ago and he has done what looks like an incredible restoration to it. Carls good friend Ernie Kowal, also from BC, also has a BB and the two of them regularly do AX battle. Battle of the Bees, but I hear Ernie usually wins... Whatever that yellow color it is now, he has applied it (and the black) so I cannot comment on the color without seeing it personally. It looks a far cry better now than it did then. |
