Mr Peabody, set your "way-back machine" to the summer of 1981.

So Paul - I'm surmising that the yellow 4 is yours - is the red with "chromies" Pat's?

The Euro 6 is a surprise to see in the hills of KY - esp. that early on.

Obviously in the days before the 914s ran for cover when it rains, judging by the one of the 3 on the Interstate! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

The 914s, the other "drivers", the hair & outfits, etc. - Thanx to you & Mr. Peabody for the trip back in time! This seems like the week for it with me, as our HS 40th sent out emails & we've all been going back & forth down nostalgia lane too! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Wonder how many on here even know who Mr. Peabody is!? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
.... other than we old fartz that is! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

"Euro" ??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

US Side Markers - check
US only engine lid PORSCHE letters - check
US Spec tail lights - check


I don't see anything "Euro" about that car ...

MORE!!

The shot of Pat cleaning and polishing is a classic! That's either the look of magnificent concentration or it was taken immediately after trying the old, "hmmm, I wonder if I should try licking it . . . "

and Peabody? Who doesn't love a good moose story (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Remember, this was 1981! Yes, I had euros F & R because they were cool. Even toyed with mounting euro rear markings, but that would reqire drilling & you KNOW how I feel about that!

Eventually gave the euro F & R lenses, as well as a nearly perfect front chrome bumper to a bud who had piced together 2 wrecked 914's & built a 3.4 (that's right) to put into it. It was awesome!

Yeah, I'm stupid - I try to help the needy, not the greedy. Wish I had the bucks for everything I've given away.

Nope, I always have my tongue out when working. Don't ask me why.

As I recall (some memories are still there), I was putting glycerin on the ball jpint boots.

That was a good year for me.

IMO that is the "ideal" location for a meet. Blue ridge parkway, Tail of the dragon, Biltmore Castle, great roads, tons of local things to do, nice people ect.

Almost moved to Ashville in 1998, Boulder won out with a coin toss (no joke)

Having just been to Keystone Parade, I can say that feild looks much more interesting than the cars we had on the lawn.

Keep them coming!

Chuck Stoddard is asking Werner "What do we need to do to get this flat 8 out of this and into my 914?"
