I am of the opinion that we should start a thread that focuses on where are we going tonight or today in our 914.

I live on the south west coast of USA. I rip up and down Pacific Coast Hwy and, rarely if ever, but mostly never see a 914.

My lovely wife and I go out to dinner and drive the 914 as a rule.

No top in the trunk.

No heater or AC.

And the uppityups in Corona Del Mar, Seal Beach, Huntington Beach, Dana Point (can you say Concours) - just popping out of their 2015 Ferrari F12berlinetta's (dime a dozen here...hohum) are ready to have me publically whacked because the iPhones are clicking photos of my lovely wife and the 914 at an alarming rate.. and the F12 locking quite fine as a matter of fact, is being neglected..

So what I am suggesting is we start a thread that is simply / where did you drive your 914 to today in photos curbside / simple / photo based and indicative of the interest and value of the simple poor man's Porsche; the 914.

any takers?? We are on our way out / the sun has yet to set so the phot will be AOK (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Well..... as you can see, I did not drive it anywhere. However, this is the last time I stood next to it, wishing I was driving it. That was last year. I hope to have it back in my garage by the end of this year (2015).

I like this idea, I'll have update once I get back on the road in a couple weeks!

I usually take mine down 101 on Fridays to work. Most people seem to drive their toys on Fridays. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Today I drove the 'BB' to a doctor appointment, then to the pharmacy. I had to drive back to the doctor's office because the pharmacy needed a wet-ink date on one of the Rx. When I got out of the car, there was a guy standing there smiling, and he said "I'm glad you came back, I wanted to ask you some questions about your car."

He said he owned one many years ago (couldn't remember if it was a 75 or 76), but he really liked driving it. He hadn't seen one on the road in decades. We talked for about 15 minutes, then the nurse brought my inked Rx out and I had to go. I let the gentleman know about 914 World, and he said thanks ...

No camera, so no pix - but I'll be shooting some pix & video at Kent's (76-914) tomorrow, while converting the 'BB' to a hydraulic clutch system (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Didn't get it in the picture but yesterday drove east, with an intention to stop by Tesla ' s abandoned laboratory. Been past it a hundred times but never knew it was there...

Built in 1901, Stanford White designed it.

Fascinating man, just starting to educate myself about him.

His statue and the lab in the distance.
