When i started my 6 week restoration about three cars and 3 1/2 years ago i heard about the club on the bird board. I went to check it out. Now i realize i'm way ahead of schedule (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) and under budget (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol2.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/lol2.gif)

I tried not to come here, because I was addicted to PP, then one day, I had it out with one of the off-topic retards, and I have only been back to say howdy there, when this board has crashed, because Andy ran out of US change..

I stumbled onto the old 914club classifieds a couple of years ago while trying to get parts. Was sad when it went away. I liked the way it was organized by month.

This new and improved version of the club really makes it easy to cover a tremendous amount of subject matter in a few minutes. Great resources available for all levels of participation. It's amazing how fast and how fluid the site topics are. Keep up the good work everyone. . .stay friendly!

Oh please... never happened!

Wayne just sided with the inbreds, that's all.. I can't help it that Wayne lives in an ivory inbred tower, and controls the price of AA's flares from there..

I met Brad at some function somewhere and he mentioned it was going to be up and running. So I went and checked it out and been here since. I think someone else mentioned it to me also but I dont remember who it was.

I've read a post at a german forum
a dutch girl wrote about a friend who attended a big 914 meeting in the USA and that there was a 914 prototype car - she even posted a pic and a link to the thread about it
well, I read the thread, thought that I could contribute something and joined the club ...

I had just bought my car and I often hung out in the PPAB 924/944/968 forum. Asked a question in the 914 forum there and someone said "Hey, this place is dead, go here -> 914world.com" and been here ever since.

I was looking into getting back into 914's again. After 9 years of being 914 less I found the PP forum and saw a link to this place. After reading through the posts, I found out that most of the ideas I had back in the early 90's were not so far fetched and were thought about by others here.

One day I was looking at 914's for sale on eBay just for fun. In one photo there was a cool Texas 914 road sign in the background. I sent an e-mail to the seller and asked if he would consider selling the sign. He wrote back and said "no". He also included some photos of his large collection of 914 models, books, pillows, posters, etc, and told me about this club. Oh yeah. The guy on eBay who was selling the 914 was Craig Laughlin.
