Hey all - glad that everything is back and all of the original posts available - My tolerance for "office politics" are long gone and I was about to kiss the 914 community (online, anyhow) goodbye for the time being..
Anyhow, with the prevailing weather patterns this year in the Northeast, I decided to pull the '72 914 out of winter storage for one last go of it this season... Last Monday I left Boston en route to Saint Augustine FL, and a few days later, left Florida for Atlanta, and yesterday, in the rain, drove from Atlanta to the Eastern Shore of Maryland for another family visit... and in a few days, back to Boston! Car has been running GREAT, netting 30mpg on the flat southern stretches with an estimated average speed of 85mph, with a few 110mph bursts when the opportunity presents. The current mileage tally is approximately 2500 miles, with another 500 for the last leg to Boston from the eastern shore... Just wanted to share the tales of long-distance, as it's a treat any time of year to spend so much seat time in the 914.. let alone winter in the Northeast! Welcom back and Happy Holidays, all.. Hope Santa was kind to you (and your cars)... -greg- |
