I am really looking forward to having everyone over!

Tragically, a manufacturing error in the cylinders i purchased has delayed the completion of my motor, and the golden opportunity to hit you guy's up for a little help tomorrow!

The upside to this is that we'll have more room to work on bigd's car in the garage and curse my parts supplier who's name will never be uttered again.

It's just like golf with me. I get my expectations up, then...

WHAM!

Byotch!

Don't EVER expect ANYTHING! now take that 3-putt like a man and PAY DOUBLE!

I'm an amazingly good golfer. Unfortunately, I don't play golf. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

I'm heading to the airport shortly. Man, I hope the weather doesn't totally screw me! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Wife says: Do the wipers work? I says: I dunno. It's not I'll ever drive it in the rain! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) It's the blades that I'd be more worried about I think?

See you soon! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

Stop and get some RainX. No big deal that way, especially on the highway.

Good Luck Dan!

BigDBass - Where do you live? I'm in Plainfield (burb just south of Naperville). Let me know if you want to borrow jackstands. I've got 8 of them. I can also give you a hand with brake bleading, clutch alignment, and any other stuff you need to fix (the only catch is that I'm mostly only free on Sunday - too many kid activities right now). Anyway, it's 100% chance of showers for Sunday in Chicago and today it's just cloudy. Make sure you keep a rag/towel with you in the 914 in case it starts to steam up during the rain. Good luck to you. This is definitely the best way to get to know your new car.

BIGDBASS is officially hitting the road for the Windy City at this moment from Mpls. We bled his brakes and gave his car a good look before hand. It's a very solid nice 74. Let's wish him some luck on the way home!

He is on his way I led him to the Highway home.. He only stalled the car once through the city streets and stop lights. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

The tires were very scary, lets all pray Dan makes it home on them he will be driving home on very hard, tread worn age cracked tires in the rain.

It was great meeting all of you and am sure we will get together again.
Thanks Paul for the windows (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)

This was an extremely nice car for up here in Minnesota or anywhere, It has a little work to it but very little and nothing major.

Thanks Paul for hosting with yummy food and beer, yum yum (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif) Gentlemen

I was fun to meet you all. I felt like the Lone 914 Ranger of Minnesota.

Maybe in a while we could do it again.

Pretty quick on the pictures too!
