I had a 76 914 a while back, and got some REAL bad advise from some people on an old Yahoo group. Bird-Board was always dead, but when I started looking to get another 914, I decided to do research...not that any NEW ones had been developed, but I was interested in a support system like the one I have for Saabs. (saabcentral.com)
Stumbled into this friggin place, and I'm STILL trying to find the door to get out of here...kinda like the Hotel California. Oh yeah...Arguments over boobs help too. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) |

One day about a year after I got my first 914, I was driving down the road and noticed this house that had a 914 racecar on a trailer, and when I looked more closely, another 914 in the garage. So, when I saw a guy outside that house, my Dad and I stopped by to talk (to this point I had only seen maybe 10 914s in person). The guy we met was Chris Folley (Racer Chris), and he recomended the club.

So there I was in at work in a dark musty hanger. I had just "won" an old race car project on EBAY. So I decided to surf the web to find info as to how to fix or work on this thing. I got a bunch of links and hits then about an hour into my serch I rang up this club thing hmmm wonder what this may be. I was like a deer in headlights I thought I could hear the angles singing.... It was some radio out in the shop probably AC/DC Highway to Hell (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) I thought what a nice bunch of guys what a well of knowledge here I must join in. Then one day I am looking at last years WCC and wow this black car with a 928 engine in it is so cool. next thing Scott Kline has a 928 for sale and Im off to the coast to get it .......... Its all kind of a blurr after that (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) . But I am enjoying the ride and all the folks I have met from here are the nicest folks ever.

Through the old monthly classifieds. I remember Craig(camp914) and that Sergio guy selling the turn signal kits.
Everytime Sergio posted his turn signal kit Craig would immediately post his kit for $10 cheaper. I always laughed when I saw it. |

I was a regular on Pelican, but I needed an answer quick and wasn't getting it, so someone mentioned this site, for a quick answer... I was addicted ever since... All it took was a look at Mike Z's avatar, and I was hooked!

I saw a twister coming so I ran in the house and a piece of the window hit me in the head and knocked me out. When I woke up, my house was on top of the guys that wrote the Haynes manual and everything was in color.

One night I washed my tinfoil pyramid hat (and a very stylish one indeed, I might add), and forgot to put it on on my way out the door the next morning. The voices, which were just waiting for their big chance, told me to sign up., because you needed Krustyness in your sick, empty little lives ............. The Cap'n

I remember it was Christmas eve, and I use to get info on my car for the the other 914.com site that seemed to be longer active, and I was searching for a site about 914's and stumbled on the 914world.com site, it was only 3 days old when I became a member. I remember asking one of my first questions about installing a gauge pod on the drivers pillar. Brad replied thinking that maybe it could be done, and installing a smaller steering wheel. This site has come a long ways. I hope it stays around for a long long time.

I saw it on the bird board. For a while I did both but quickly I saw how lame the bird board was and how awesome this one was. So now i'm here spending WAY to much time reading posts.
