Sounds like you have been to Camp 914. Which one did you get? color? Isn't Craig an easy guy to deal with? Got mine in 2005 and he even delivered it to my door!

Ahh, Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. I miss that part of the world. Although, SoCal ain't bad either. That area has always been good for sports cars., Back in the 80's I used to get thumbs up and waves driving my Fiat x/19 or MGB around. They weren't even that old back then.
Used to make the trek up to Hope a few times each summer and over to the Island once in a while.
How many 914's do you see around there??

Beautiful car.

I don't often remember many of my dreams, but after reading your thread the first time, I had a dream that night that I was towing my 914 and it fell off the back of the trailer, spun around and into oncoming traffic and was smashed.

I think the dream was a mixture of your accident and remembering when I towed my 914 from Connecticut to PA and worrying the whole time that I wouldn't see the car in the rear view mirror sliding off the back of the trailer.

Happy motoring!

You know when it happened I was actually hoping it was a bad dream....It seemed to happen in slow motion.Sadly,no dream. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Cool combo. Love the color!
I want shiny Fuchs!
I would love to drive my 914 from CA up there in the summer. I visited Whistler spring 2009, and all the roads where being re-paved for the Olympics. That is probably one sweet drive now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Very Nice car! Can you legally backdate the bumpers in Canada? Love the 5 lug Fuchs.

I may need to pick your brain about importing the car. I have looked at the Registrar's website and it seems fairly simple. I get a lot fo calls from BC looking for cars down here.
