It's been a while since I've visited, but saw this teener on the road on my way home a few days ago. I can't remember the last time I actually saw one on the road when it wasn't a show or some sort of event. My dream of owning one has been put on hold once again and may never happen, but I'll keep dreaming...





Hey that's me!!!




Awesome, glad to see you are on here! I've noticed you a couple of times now on my way to and from work. Both times I've had to turn off my radio and roll down the window so I could hear the car.

Reading this post has me asking the obvious question... When are we going to organize a Minnesota 914 get together? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

I'm going to need a little time.

Or I could put mine on a trailer and pull it to the event.

Either way sounds like fun!

Given all the (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif) I think the wisest decision you could possibly make is to put one of your 914s on a trailer and show up. Your former signature said you had several (what happened to them?). A move that big might actually start to get you enough cred to get unbanned. You need to pull out all the stops and make that happen. Or you can fail again and pound another nail in your coffin around here. So, what are you going to do?

I do have four, they are all in the VIN data base. With complete descriptions.

In another thread I explained that I was going to take a break from the cars and put up a new shop. I really wish I could do both at the same time but with work and family obligations something has to give. Actually a lot of the members had great ideas which many I will incorporate into its build.

So you are copping out already right here and now in front of everyone? You said you'd bring one on a trailer. Bring it. We all know the shop is BS. Show up if you want to man up. Put up or show up.
Tick tock, goodbye.

Yes you did miss something, not to pretty, but it's all on me. Shouldn't be brought up or reflect on your thread

Has nothing to do with you Iwanta or your Thread.

Thanks for sharing this sighting, maybe more Minnesotan's will chime in.

With all Due respect Mr. Rand,

On another Thread a while back I asked members how long they had been working on there cars.

Many well respected members on this forum have been working on them for decades, some have been sitting in a shed for decades. Can't quite remember the longest period but I want to say it was in the thirty year range. I thought it was a pretty cool thread.

Again this is a thread about Minnesota Sightings not about calling me out.

I must be lucky. I see one at least every other day or so.

In my garage. On jack stands.

I keep telling him to look you up, he is in pharmacy school up there, but he has a hard time "cold calling" someone he doesn't know. Hopefully he will find you as he loves working on his car, did a lot of metal work on a 356 we are restoring and could certainly learn some finishing skills you possess.
