We should have a get together here at my shop sometime over the summer....

Not many guys get to come see the operation, but its always nice to show off what we have!

Come see what we do on our farm! (My shop is located in a pair of renovated barns LOL)

I'm only an hour from Atlanta, much more scenery and two different mountains to go carve away at! My Favorite is Blood Mountain- its NASTY!

That sounds like I great idea. I have a cabin at Helen and spend alot of time up there. We always do the cooler run up 129 to the top of Blood mountian and then 180 over to 60 and then back down to 19 to Turners corner. Makes for a great ride.

John and Joe, the wife and I will be attending. We're coming up Friday, after work, and staying with a friend of ours in Atlanta. All three of us will be there for the lunch.

How many wives/girlfriends are attending?

John, I'm so looking forward to seeing your car. It is because of your success that I've decided to do the V8 conversion.

Joe, I'm looking forward to seeing you again also, so we can talk about the burnt one.

Looking forward to seeing more of the 914Club members. This BBS ROCKS.

Push it back one weekend and I might be able to show up with a 914. The current weekend scheduled I have to do a Driver's school here in town. Gotta teach a team of FSAE people to drive. If jake wants to open his shop this summer that would be cool. Yes the roads north of Atlanta around Helen are some of the best twisties in the country. Good passing lanes, and fresh pavement. I hope to get a real job this summer and have my chassis fixed and be driving again.

hey BIGKAT, recognize this restaurant?

i bought my 914 in tacoma and drove it back to fl.. had family in cleveland, tn., so i thought i'd cruz through helen on my way home. coming down from tenn. i missed a turn and stumbled on an amazingly twisty road over a mountian pass, i'm wondering if this is the blood mountian you guys are talking about. MAN!!! that was a treat after driving the interstates for a few days. and jake you live near this road?!? WOW!! yep, musta drove right past your shop. i'd love to come up to jake's in the summer and drive that road again!!

Just a reminder of our first Atlanta gathering. Have had several PMs wanting to know if this was a show, who could come, v8 converted cars only etc.

To clarify. Anyone interested with or without a Porsche is invited. Don't have to drive car to attend. This is just a opportunity for those of us with similar interests to share our wares and BS about cars.

So far I've been contacted by folks coming from Ga., SC, LA. and Fla.

I'm leaving Augusta, Ga. via I-20 if anyone wants to caravan over.

Another Indiana guy that just might show up!

I'll be in Dunwoody this weekend which looks very close to the meeting place. Would love to see a V8 914 - it is very tempting to put a SBC in my 914. Kinda got a passion for Chevrolets and 914s.

Its getting closer!!!

I might even be able to take teh teener down if Brad gets my suspension goodies here in time... after that all it will need is paint.


That restaurant is the Hofbrauhaus.... I'm only 4 miles from it, nestled up in the woods off my own road.... I'm spoiled.

Jake,

I've been worried you would show up with one of your monster motors that would blow our V8s away. I'll have the nitrous topped off and supercharger tweaked Friday night! : )

Look forward to meeting you.

Doug........you will be able to see at least 3 914 converted cars that I'm aware of. Two V8s and one V6 that have given firm commitments to being there.

when i was at the hofbrau restaurant. there was a guy making deliveries, he said there was a guy in town that had a silver 914. said he worked at the town hall, i think it was. i went by there but didn't see his 914.

wish i could attend, maybe in the summer.
