Life is good....
Others in attendance....Grumpy/Ginter, Sammy was there with his turbo 911 SC, Steve Malm in his wife's vette, Slits, and many more.....good turnout.

Mike, my wife was definately holding her ears, saying..no, not another motor. On the way home she told me that she was glad that you did not moon her
It was nice meeting everyone there, real nice people.

Great Event.
Thanks to our host Glen.
I got to see some old friends, make some new ones and meet some 914Club celebrities. I sold more than enough
junk rare 914 parts to pay for the trip, plus make up for taking the day off work. I would guess the total attendance was 80 people. There were about 12 guys selling parts. I think there were around 20 teeners there, most of them were VERY NICE and quite a few sixes. A few tail draggers, one lone 356 plus a couple with Zora Arkus-Duntov body kits.
Here are a few shots of the action.

Dang I wish I was there. I would of been all over the parts. I really need a 914 parts car. But my 914 is the very first one I have ever seen so doubt I will find another anytime soon.

I finally made it home myself about 45 minutes ago. Pics later. I need a nap.
SLITS was there? I want to meet this character. Did I and not realize it?
I didn't realize that was toast either. At least we got some pics to go with names. skline is in that shot as well.
Great seeing old friends and meeting some new guys. I got a nice tan out of it too.

Maybe if I'd'a been nicer to mine, I could'a helped Glen push that other non-running 951 back into the lot. (Yes, there was another one in addition to the red one you-all helped him with.)
Got to meet Toast's Pappy (inventor of the "blue flame seat heater") again, and finally met Toast in person. Even met Jason's (from Pelican) new wife.
Good to see everyone again. I'll have to show up to at least a few more of these. Heck, maybe I'll even be able to show in a 914 some day? (Yeah right!)
Pics, hopefully, to follow later today. Yes, Z--even your next avatar.

Hah, you can see my ass if you look carefully in one of the pics. Only slightly uglier than MikeZ's mug.

1.7 intake stuff. I think the stuff on the snorkel of the air cleaner makes it a 72, specifically.

"Universal" fan--it appears to have both the L-jet timing mark (7.5 BTDC, 1.8 L only) and the D-jet timing mark (27 deg BTDC; 1.7 and 2.0) on it.
