Bought a 914 the other day, it came with a numbered 914Club keychain. I would like to know what this is from.

Swag from a 914 show and/or some of our members have sold them.
A contributing factor between the split of the club/world was disagreement over swag sales. This is the #1 reason 914world doesn't sell swag and you have to ask permission to use 914world logos etc., the answer will likely be NO because of that shit show. |

Mark Bland, Engman, made those in around 2003 or 4. We had them as giveaways at the Fall Foliage Classic that Garold, Mark, Doug, Dan & I put on.
I'm not sure if he sold them or gave them away to anyone else. |

Restoration Designs makes the new metal version that you see on many peoples keychains.
I dont see them on their website but Im sure they have a few around. I can check my box to see if I have any spares. Shoot me a PM to remind me. However I would HIGHLY recommend Oscars leather fobs! I have a few of those on each key right next to the 914 metal cutout (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) He makes some great coasters too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=333774 |

RD has made some, others have too. Bruce stone has a more robust one you can open beer with. No logo on it. The logo thing is always an issue. No one wants to see a commercial operation "making money" on selling branded items that do not benefit the community.

Thanks for the information. Mine is number 52/100, is that of any significance? YES!! well, no, not really. it was just the 52nd one to get numbered! LOL I don't think they had any significance to them. I do know, however, that there were 1 or 2 that went out un-numbered as well ;-) |

oh, now look at your keychain closely, then look at the car in my avatar...the cut lines and detail... ;-)
You'll never guess where he got the file he cut. =D |

How do you open beer bottles with it? Simple. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) You buy screw off off bottle tops! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Back at the beginning of 2015 there was a key chain thread. I noticed that a member from SoCal has one of the same kind that I do. I don't remember where or when I got mine but I dug it out and shined it up for this photo. Slightly off topic but I am a slightly off kilter guy anyway, so there ya' go.
