I plan to stop by... if nothing, to get out of my 914-hybernation. I'm gonna carry around a 914 gauge cluster for cheap; anyone interested?

Looks like the rain (if there was any) skipped past this area. I'm only about 4 miles from the swap meet locale, so I think we're going to be alright.
Just snapped this pic outside my house ... the ground is dry, so if you were on the fence due to weather, come on out. See you there! |

Dave Darling (2nd from left) showed up, gimpy knees and all. Here he is explaining the difference between early and late Pedrini's.
Also pictured are Mark (aka Moe from Stockton), who is holding the wheel, Jeff, back to camera, and Nick on the far right. Stuff for sale I know these are supposed to be unobtanium ... but really? More air cooled classics ... Gotta love the Squareback '76 912E w/sunroof and air conditioning slipping in one of them new fangled water cooled Porsches owned by nice guy John Timeless ... |

914's are kewl Group: Members Posts: 1,776 Joined: 6-June 03 From: San Ramon, CA Member No.: 791 Region Association: Northern California |
Good times today and glad to see all you 914'ers out there. I picked up a decel valve that looked brand new (maybe NOS but out of the box). Works perfectly!!
We need to get another Bay Area breakfast and fun run afterwards put together again. I think it has been since Alice's Restaurant in December for the last breakfast. |

I made it with my old Mercedes, the blue 1966. Had a great time and sold some parts.
Thanks to Rush for setting this up! -- brett |

Picked up a new side mirror rubber base, a back up TPS for a 2.0 D-Jet in like new condition, and a super clean gas cap the polished up nicely with Flitz for the Bumblebee's gas tank. Thanks Scooter for the super deals. Kathy (aka Jessie today), my son Nolan and I had a good time. Great way to spend a Sunday morning. A big thank you to the organizer.

Anyone know who was selling those doors? These guys. Unfortunately, I don't know their names. Bummer. Well, if they were a deal someone probably bought them anyway. And if no one bought them they were probably in bad shape. Or way expensive. Right? Good, now I can feel better about not going and missing out. In any case if anyone knows these folks names I'd appreciate a note. Thanks. |

Wow, what a great turn out! I wanted to go, but we had to be in Half Moon bay for Dream Machines... just around the corner!

The doors were evidently from a 74 911. Both had bubbles under the paint near the bottom; evidently water got into both.

Crap. I missed it too. I was rock solid on going but had other issues pop up last minute. Good to see there was a nice turn out!

Nuts - I decided it was going to be rained out and slept in. Sorry I wasn't up to check the dawn patrol's picture post. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
Ditto on another local drive/breakfast. |
