Just wanted to express my opinion that 914's are just the coolest damn things on the planet. This is supposed to be our escape from the world (not 914world (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). So lets dispense with the (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bs.gif) & get back to the (IMG:style_emoticons/default/creamsicle914.jpg) . Thats what really draws us together to begin with.
Group hug anyone (IMG:style_emoticons/default/new_shocked.gif) Huge thanks to all the admins who make this online home available! Your the best & I know I really appreciatte your hard work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |

Getting busy on the car, lots of events coming I,m hoping to do this summer. Go to the local NAPA store to get cap and rotor for a 050 distributor. I had the Bosch part numbers for the items and just wanted the kid to order them. Pretty easy, Not for this kid he had to have a car to refrence the part to so he could look up the part number in thier book. I told him it was an after market Distributor for VW and Type 4 Porsche He didn't believe understand so I told him forget it I'll go to the Other NAPA store they know what I'm asking for, his response was don't get all bent up. I just want to make sure I get the correct parts. I love these little cars (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Keep Going mrgjones... youll get it done... took me 8 months to take a water latent tacoma 914 that hadn't driven in a decade to get it converted to a subaru ej22 and im now driving it around the town to test my conversion... That and check the suspension. Keep at it and I had never driven one of these great cars before. I'm positive that my car could be smoother it will get there soon at least it runs rolls stops and doesn't melt down with this goofy subaru motor in it. Its also amasing how a normally placid engine from a subaru legacy can transform one of these cars into a little rocket. Good Luck and thanks to all of those that have helped me piece together a 914 |

Totally with ya Jamie. The best online to realworld community ever.
Although I have to say, no matter what all the crazy drama that has come along, I've never let it phase me. I've just laughed with it and enjoyed the entertainment. Love this place, the people that make it, and look forward to the next event where we get to meet in person again. See you all in Methford. Um, I mean WCC 2011!! [edit] Just realized I said WCC... It's WCR now, right? Oops. Well again, points to the classic camaraderie. Same vein. |

I just bought my car in October last year and spent much of the winter working on things to get it ready for spring, went to the DMV to get the collector plate forms filled out and sent in, turns out they dont issue temporary plates now with collector plates, need to wait another 3-4weeks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) Thanks to the guys that run this thing! Kind of like crack ..... but the good kind.....can't have just one. You know I talk to people all the time and the one thing that I try to bring up is that as a 914 owner, this website is a HUGE resource for 914ers. Knowledge (some more than others), guys that are willing to actually help each other out (even if beer is involved as a motivator). We have a large group our guys with parts stashes that don't want "commercial" prices for used parts, which is in and of itself a huge step forward for the restoration of the cars we love. We are a community, kept bound together by the individuals that are working behind the sceens for no finnancial gain. That is very rare. Thanks to all of you that are contributing to our hobby through participation in our events and helping others, lets keep up the good Karma. Or is it Carma (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
