@914LTD Brad you going?

Brad has been doing this just a few years, I'm sure he may have a few parts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

That was my first thought as well.

I plan to attend regardless, but it would be great to see Brad after all the work he and Michael have done to my car over the years.


Thanks again to the organizers.

I'm going to try to get there. Even a 160 mile trip to Chicago is challenging for me now.

Event is only 3 weeks away!
We are super-excited for all the interest!
If you want to sell parts and don't have a table, please let us know and we'll do our best to have one for you. Even if your car can't make it, just come to hang out!

I'm gonna try also, hope to bring my for-sale 1974 Light Ivory 2.0.

Recommendations for overnight stay? I'm coming from Cadillac, MI.

Thanks,

Paul

For some reason my photo is cloudy but it's the best I can do tonite...

What is your preference for hotel? Schaumburg is heavy corporate so there are a lot of places 5 minutes away. Some more budget friendly 10-15 mins.
Search around the intersection of I-90 and I-290. Just a bit west of there.

Budget friendly on the way back sounds best.

Hi Paul.
I know that white 914 from a few years ago, it's a rust free beauty.
Tom can't attend this event.

Actually Tom, it's another rust free beauty, I have two and need to thin the herd. Hope you change your mind and make it anyway!

Hey everybody. It has been a bit since I have been logged in. Been lurking incognito…

I am excited to see something happening somewhat close to home.

I am thinking about driving down from Wisconsin, and considering selling some parts, memorabilia, toys, book, models etc…..
Since it is a bit of a drive I am thinking about posting some pictures of the stuff and going to gauge interest….just want to see what I should bring, vehicle will be pretty full if there is interest in some of the fiberglass body parts etc.
pictures to follow later today once I get to my shop.

Any thing I can do to help? After all Peoria is a famous historic town, so it is a win win to go to your end.
