The yellow 906 was a just completed, full-on restoration completed by Mike Gent of Sherwood OR. I have watched the progress of this car for about a year.
Unbelievable detail! This car was raced for years and had an interesting past! Very Cool! |

I didn't register for the Parade - it filled up. Are there events that I can just show up to and check out cars?

The Autocross is open to the public I'm told....or to PCA members fer sure. Wednesday & Thursday.till 4:00PM Driver count keeps climbing......325 or so...give or take, maybe (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) . Registration was a bit chaotic. Apparently a lot of folks weren't directed to the autocross desk. |

Nah, that isn't mine. That one was a '66 and was in the concourse. I have not been busy enough.

He lives about a mile from me. He is more of a 914 guy than anything. He has three or more 914's including a 3.8 project with tubed rear suspension and GT2 front end, a 914-6 conversion that tears it up with us at the autocrosses, and a 914-4 2 liter autocross car. |

I have a huge soft spot for 906s....one or two show up at the glen every year for the vintage races. Love the louvered back window....

I was a bit disappointed in the 914 representation at the Concourse, but I am sure there will be more at the AX on Wed and Thurs. Here are some cool pictures that I took the last two days. Enjoy, Britain OK this is torture Britain.... We need an update. |
