We picked this spot to park cuz it had a handy Firetug there just in case of fire

ya never know.....

Thanks all for letting me see your cars! I have been flying blind with my car. Aside from last week when I saw and drove Bleysengs car that is the first time I have been around, seen or heard another 914. I had a list of questions that I was going to ask, but I forgot the damn list . My car sat for some 10 years and was in pretty bad shape, it's good to know some of you have had the same problems and fixes that I have had .
One other thing that I would like to add (and please as a newbie I hope I do not offend, whatever). The Spar food =
Oh, and one more!
To the owner (sorry I forgot your name) of the orange 914 with the engine you you could eat off of, and the entire car for that matter, :finger2:! You showed me what COULD BE! You raised my bar to levels I will not ever reach. I am a looser, thanks!
Thanks to all, I really had a good time .
Now where to put that sticker!

Sorry I missed this one! I have spent the day loading tools and equipment, reading for a move.

and to think that my humble red '72 got to be in the photo with some of those beauties! inspiration, learning, and a decent cup of coffee, all in one morning.

yes, the sun is shining, but when we first stepped out of the spar, it was raining. for those of you who have never been to the pac nw, it is strange, but it does that. rain and sun at the same time. go figure.

i am simply glad i could make it.

Sorry I wasn't able to make it, had to do some business today. Maybe next time.

Great day, great cars and especially great people. We should do a drive sometime given the weather is starting to be top-down time. Thanks for the compliment on my 1.8, I dont have any kids so I spoil myself

Tim

and thanks to Geoff, great pictures! i am emailing them to my family and friends. (both of 'em! )

and what a day to drive home! gorgeous!

That was a lot of fun! Thanx to Kevin for the decal...
Next time we need to meet for
Cheers!

For all you lurkers who are wondering who's car is whos.

Who's the un-named newbie in the green unit? Is that Delphi Green?

Yes, pretty good paint job but I forgot his name.

Thanks Geoff.

ablose58, I got your email. I love Delphi Green. Please post some pics of your "puke green" (shouldn't that be "metallic puke green"?) in the Members 914 pictures thread!

More 914 PICS! Is that all the pictures you guys took? More 914 PICS!

kevin's car has the best front height. Looks good flowerboy!

Here Gint since I lov ya soo much......
Oh, I think his name was Al.

I'm feelin it... Looks like a pretty nice teener.

OH, here's RustyWa's car that didn't make it (EricN did). Talk about beautiful paint!!

there was a great showing from the guys that live on the other side of the bridge. there was a macco paint job that i have to admitt was pretty damn nice for $800. i won't mention who said it or who's car it was... a die hard fi fan admitted a carbed car ran well off idle and pulled well. you should have sent the food back jimmy, but i'm sorry it wasn't to your liking. we should be able to put together a gathering with 25 local cars with no problem. geoff and i have had our turn at social director. it's somebody else's turn to step. joe should be in everett this week to pick up his car for the drive home to mississippi . lets hook up for a chance to show where the rust hides in cars from washington. next saturday? thanks sean.

where we had breakfast doesn't get 9 914s at a time parked on the street. our cars got lots of looks. beautiful or less than, our cars get attention.

kevin

still popped and spit alot. That Triad linkage worked nicely thou, a good dual carb setup. Only about the 3rd one I have driven that worked *almost* as nice as Djet.


wonder what cam is in there?

Geoff

ALOT!!? bullshit. let's talk about a high idle that doesn't come down . think ears were burning when the 2 old farts were sitting on a bench, in the sun, looking at the vista of commencement bay? you're right, i think dave's linkage is the best setup for carbed cars.

kevin

well, i got my car's front end lowered this morning. i forget the name of the gentleman who showed me where the adjustment points are (yes, you can call me a newbie). in one of the pictures posted by Geoff you can see us on the ground in front of my red car, lookin' at stuff!

now, off to the grocery store, to try out this new front end height.

what a wonderful sight those cars were, out there next to the bay! thanks again for the photos, Geoff.

al did well on his car purchase!!! i did a ppi and pissed off the dealer(there was no budge on the price when i saw it). i think al sent him over the top and got it for pretty much a give away price imho.

kevin

Thanks for the warm welcome at the Spar! Even though my car is still about a year out, I am now inspired to get it up and runnin'.
Thanks again Kevin for the side shifter! Always feels good to start out with good parts.

Tim, I will probably be asking you a few questions in the future about getting the 1.8L looking and running right! Your car was just plain awesome!

Enjoy the sun everyone!

Nate

Enjoyed breakfast I will step up as social director for the next one.
April 24 at Emerald Downs Early breakfast at the quater shoot cafe then the the races http://www.emeralddowns.com/default.asp?cat=8&id=107

I would also like to do one at the track on September 25 after the live racing season is over. We will be able to use our north parking lot for some fun

Jim

Emerald Downs sounds Great! I should have my car back together by then too. Just need to sell some toys so I can get that air compressor to finish off the painting of my engine bay.

Thanks for volenteering, Jim! That would be a gas...
BTW, the PCA is having a skills day on the 17th at Bremerton Raceway...
