Thanks to all who have chosen not to point out my stupidity (Craig's too). After a good night's sleep, I have come to my senses. Must have owned too many 911's/912's/356's over the years. It must have been in my imagination that the gauges began to climb when my alt. belt broke? Fan is lost with broken belt on the tail draggers listed above, not a type 4! I could have driven home on the battery without a problem. Dumb, real dumb. I gave my wife all those belly laughs, which will echo for weeks, for no reason!

geoff, at least my top was OFF. did you get my second email or is "deamon mailer" going to tell me it didn't go through in 8 hours. bruce, it was the RAIN that started 1/2 hour after we got there. its been so nice since the car got on the road there's been no need to turn on the wipers. just a tip, if the little rubber edge is gone they don't work so well. wrong day for ax, no top and rain, perhaps fate prefers i not take my car to ore. jim, you should have let that point slide under the radar. the little drag race after we took that 90 deg right to salem was fun.

By the way Kevin, Betsy admits now to trying to join my midlife crisis. Actually she's not a bad driver. She really has surrendered, after we left Jamie's place we went up the street shopping. She wanted me to try on a helmet. The kicker is she had tried it on already. So maybe next year we'll both try AX. Here's a couple of Pix

The line up at Parts Obsolete. Incidentally. I got so excited at Gary's I forgot to take any pictures. That place is incredible. I needed a rubber boot that goes from the cooling shroud to the alternator and some tin so Gary says try in that shipping container on the right side. He had a whole box full and I think its NOS. Talk about a candy shop.

Silver with Fuchs is Tom Wilkinson's 914-6. Those are 15x6 "deep".

Yeah Tom has a beautiful car. It's a factory 6 that was built up to 190HP, and is done to look totally original. It was the first 6 I had ever seen and I was very impressed. Here is a pic I snapped of his car. The wheels just bairly fit in the back. I coudn't put a finger between the wheel and the rear fender. I guess he rolled the fenders ever so slightly.

I missed out. Wife was to tired, kids were sick, no accessible van (means no chair).
Guess I shouldn't have gone, anyways. I fell 4 times yesterday. Hit my head 3 outta 4 times. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Atleast Chris got most of the paint/bondo off the rear fenders. A little more prep work is needed before the Metal Shaper's Clinic... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |
