My wife and I are planning going up on Saturday and coming home late monday afternoon. With it being a 8 hour drive I really can't pass it up


Make sure you stop by and say hi at the concours!

Getting closer. Anyone wandering up into the Big Mitten?

Leaving tomorrow AM for the start of the Journey. Heading to Stoddard, NLA for the Car Show and Swap then flying back home. Then, flying back to Cleveland to drive the rig to Traverse City.

Eric, if you are driving to Traverse you are passing through Cadillac. Maybe you can stop by and say hi.

Hi Eric,
Travel safe and see you at Parade.
BTW: My 914 is at a local shop for a safety/mechanical/electrical checks along with a minor tuneup. They just called and said it will be ready late next week or later (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) This leaves me little time for my buff and clean time, Grrrr I hate delays. I was thinking about renting a U-Haul trailer & tow it with a SUV Ford Explorer. I just leaned U-Haul has banned the Explorer due to a 2-3 year old laysuit. Looks like I'll have to drive the 260 miles to TC then another clean & buff for the concourse. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) CW life is not fair. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif)

Hi Paul in Cadillac,
Looking forward to seeing your beautiful 914. Are you driving to Parade or on a trailer??? It's only about 60 miles ++--.
I checked the long term forcast on weather & looks like low sunny 70's during the day and low 50's at night. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Julie and I are going up for the week, assuming I can get through the next couple of weeks at work!

I'm hoping to bring my flared 914-6 conversion car (if we can get the rebuilt engine installed in time), but if not I'll bring my trusty old 914-6. Looking forward to meeting some 914World members in person!

Looks like I won't be able to get the time of work this year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) I hope to see some wonderful pictures!

Since I'm in a class with less than 1,000 miles per year of manufacture, I think I'm gonna trailer it up there, it's about 40 miles away. BUT I plan on driving it home!!! And on the Eric Shea ride Wednesday morning.

Nah. I was just looking at your route to the West side of MI.

But you're in Detroit(ish) Thursday night?

Here's another option:

How about an impromptu "Teener Sunset Tour" after the concours on Monday to one of my favorite places on earth?

It's about 34 miles and 1 hour:

Parking in the Harbor parking lot. Fresh smoked fish on the dockside and cherries from roadside stands along the way...

Just say YES!!!

Eric & 914er's.
Lets all sit together at the Tuesday evening banquet dinner along with Eric's other activities??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif)

I am driving my 914 the 260 miles to TC on Sunday morning. I am behind schedule on cleaning due to a heavy work load in business. Buff & Shine is all it gets.

Eric I agree on the side trip to Leland MI.
My story:: We have a summer cottage up-north in Petoskey (hr. drive from TC) that my wife spends all summer while I commute weekends from downstate Plymouth running my business. During "Sweet Black Cherry" season I always stop at road side stands for a big bag of fresh cherry's on my way downstate. I open the roof hatch on my business car and spit with force up in the air hoping to clear the trunk. When I get home I check for cherry stains on the cars rearend and if none, it's a good trip. I smile at myself in the mirror with my purple stained cherry lips. End of story, life is good (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) BTW: I never do this with my chrome yellow 914.

I have dinner plans Tuesday night with relatives in Harbor Springs. I'd love to firm up the Leland drive though.
