More events coming up. Cruise-in at LeMay in Tacoma on Thursday from 5-7:30. Thursday also happens to be the 75th anniversary of the first Porsche car to be approved in Germany if you're looking for a good excuse to get your cars out. That leads to events this Saturday. All three of the major dealerships in the Puget Sound area will have 75th anniversary celebrations. Porsche Tacoma & Porsche Bellingham will hold theirs from 11am-3pm, and Porsche Bellevue will have theirs in the evening from 5:30pm-8:30pm. Bellingham is anticipating a larger crowd and will start parking and setup at 8:30am. All three dealers are having some form of catering/food trucks.

Big PNWR meet coming up on July 2nd. Had over 100 cars show up last year. It was a blast! Hope to see some of you north end guys there.

Sunday, anyone? Great day to see some beautiful Pcars and a silver 914 with a questionable paintjob. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif)

I signed up for the GoodGuys show at the end of the month. I always enjoy walking around looking at the cars and now I'll have three days of it. Griot's is sponsoring a VW corral and I'll be there. Also Sunday the 23rd is the German car show in Renton as part of the Renton River Days..

Best of all is Cars & Coffee this Sunday at the Bellevue Porsche. They bring in great food trucks and everything is free!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) I remember walking to breakfast at Eggs Etc. after Walker's, shortly before we lost Nord. Good time.

Small town on Marrowstone Island not far from my home.

I plan to drive my red car to RRC2023 from Madison and then drive to North Bend WA to leave the car on newly acquired property. Apparently in King county, I have to show worthiness to build a garage, so it may be in a tent for the winter. Then I can fly and drive, avoiding the long slog through the Dakotas and Montana. Not that they aren’t great scenery.
So: I will be a part time teener out there. I miss Ivar’s so much.

Welcome to WA! North Bend proper or in King County? Unless you’re going to sleep in the tent, I’d look around for indoor storage for at least the winter.

Good to see it going back to the original spot. Having it at The Shop was a little odd. I'll be missing it this year. Spending that weekend up in Canada.

Ferry's all booked out, I'll see if I can get the 914 off the rock for a day somehow. Be fun to look at a bunch of parts I don't need.

Just a couple of feet past NB. By the new bike trails. Challenge will apparently be to keep the mice and blackberries at bay. Plan on some sort of ritual to allow King county to grant building permission. I may sacrifice a Rochester carburetor or something. Not too sure. Bought the land, and have a contractor. Also, spent my first 30 years in the PNW.

Thanks for posting this. I’ll try and be there- prob around 9-10am.
I’ve scored some good parts there in the past. Always fun to see other 914s there.

I've just been advised I'm losing my Seattle parking space on September 4 so I will need to find a new home for my 1970 914. I don't know what the price should be... open to suggestions. The previous owner built the engine as a 2.4/4 but we're not sure he used the right camshaft, and there were some other problems you can read about in the linked download.

It does have a Dr. Evil transmission and a Tangerine Racing linkage.

Body and paint are fair/rough. It is a yellow car painted black. Rich of 914werke discovered someone had used spray filler in the wheel well under the battery box. We are unsure of the condition of the metal under that. We did find the trunk floor had rusted through at the taillights.

Here is a download link with all the unflattering pictures and other records from the time I acquired it in 2017. Note that some of the problems shown in the photos have been solved, and there are also problems not shown in the photos.
UPDATED 8/21//2023
This is a more reasonable download size with a few photos added:

I think that's a great idea (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
But selfishly I suggest we gather after (thought I'd try to bring some parts)
Mike it'd be good to see you it's been a while. Sorry to hear you're
Loosing your space. If you can swing it bring the car tomorrow
It might help to get some exposure.
