I've never seen a two toned 916. I know PMS restored it. Was it that way from the factory?

What a terrific venue for Werks Reunion! There were some beautiful and rare cars this year.
The show-stopper was the 1 of only 11 916 that had just completed (Wednesday) a complete restoration by Patrick Motorsports. As you might it expect, it was beautifully done. James, Mark and others from PMS were present and they are all just great guys and love talking cars. In addition to that stunner, Greg Taylor from Tracy had his beautiful Willow Green car there. I loved it and the interior was gorgeous. I saw it last year in his garage when it was a bare shell! Don & Judy's '70 Silver 914-6 was parked next to me and their car was a magnet as it is, I believe, completely stock. Two nicer people, you could not find. Beach914's Bumble Bee was with us and as usual, it was well received too. I think we had a good representation of our little cars. I look forward to next year as this is just a great event and crowd. I encourage you, if you have not been, to try to make it. |

Gaudin Porsche, Las Vegas, did the Porsche Chassis challenge and entered their beautifully done Bumble Bee. These guys did a great job on a car that was a basket case 7 short months ago. Super great people and their metal man is only 25 years old. He has definitely got skills. The panel fitment and gaps were prefect to my eyes. I can't believe I only have 1 picture of that beauty.

Wow! Wolfgang, thanks so much for the pictures. Yesterday we were looking and wondering if that accent color was correct- now we know. Amazing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

That red one is mine!
Lots of pics on my Instagram @norcal914 After Werks….I think I’m gonna sell the 914. I had a blast but I want air conditioning and I want a cayman. |

Great event and great folks at this event!
At the risk of sounding biased because Michael is a good friend, he should have taken 1st place. One of the judges even admitted that it was hard not to give 1st place to the 916 due to its rarity. Second place went to my friend Greg's car which had racing history in Mexico...also a beautiful car. I thought judging was based solely on condition and not rarity, but apparently that is not the case. Michael's car was even better than the bought and paid for by Porsche Gaudin Bumblebee(different class), which had both trunks painted in matte black and the dashpad restoration speaks for itself(see photo in previous post). I get the politics...Michael won it last year and the PCA wanted the 916 driving up to the winner's circle. Michael is too humble to care about it and doesn't need the award to affirm what he has. Cheers Michael! @wonkipop The whole point of a judged show is to be picky. What other criteria should be used to distinguish levels of restoration? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Wow! Wolfgang, thanks so much for the pictures. Yesterday we were looking and wondering if that accent color was correct- now we know. Amazing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) am i seeing that color right in the photos? electric pink! it looks f'n fantastic. your green car next to it looks a million + 1 bucks too mr cairo. in fact all the 914s look a million bucks. ---- thanks for the photos. never get to see a line up like that down here. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) ---- @JamesJ . i try not to be picky about things but do agree about the dashboard in the restored bumblebee. ? crayfords did a better job back in the early 70s with their handmade rhd dash. anyway, its good to see another 914 saved and looking almost showroom.

@JamesJ - Thank you for your very kind words James. I appreciate that and we really enjoyed hanging out with you- you, sir, are a gentleman. My hope is your car is on the lawn with us next year. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
We are planning next year to stay 2 nites so we do not have to drive home on Friday late afternoon/early evening (that was a brutal drive). Also, if there is another auction, we are going. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) As a side note, we were in stop and go traffic for hours during the return trip, and it was probably in the high 90's outside (tried not think about it since we had no AC). My car remained around 210 degrees while in that mess. As soon as we hit clean air and 50 MPH it dropped to about 195 within minutes. I can not emphasize enough how pleased I am with the front GT cooler, thermostat, GT hard lines and shroud we installed on my car for just such occasions. |

Believe it or not, the seats were done by a close friend who is also a neighbor of the owner/builder! The seats are actually original 914 cores that were modified to incorporate higher side bolsters. Here’s a pic of when they were in the process of being customized. This build has so many incredible custom details. Just a stunning example.
