When I have a bad day or just need to clear my mind, these cars do it for me. Forget about everything and just drive, but she's been in the garage long enough for the battery to go dead.

On Jan 1st I lost my Father and to get back in the car and drive was great. Good memories and another way to remember him. My 72 was restored in his garage for the most part and he had a hand in the restoration.

now the -6 sits in his garage as a rolling tub. I wish he could be around for another 914 build. All the skills and lessons he taught me in the garage growing up and after will help make this project another great one!!

time to get on it, Thanks Dad!!

sincerest condolences ...i just went through that and dont wish it on my worst enemy. the end of 2010 couldnt come fast enough for me for this reason. and i agree, the car, and the great bunch of guys ive met on here helped me get it on the road and get back on track. Dave

Condolences and best wishes. Let me tell you from personal experience, keep building them. It's the best way to feel closer to him.

I am sorry for your loss.

As I read your post I couldn't help but hope my son has a similar outlook when I move on.

Keep building, modifying and improving. Your satisfaction will always be multiplied by a power of 2.

Warm regards to you and a tip of my hat to your father. May he always be with you.

Sorry Andy. As soon as the next round of snow melts (this weekend) I'll do a lap in the 914 in your dad's honor.

Sorry to hear about your Dad Andy. I'm sure he would love to see you working on the six.

Sorry for the loss of your dad. Keep driving!

Getting in the car, and doing a nice round trip to L.A....to the old hood.
put's a nice smile on my face as well...About your Dad Be strong and drive So you at C&C

Sorry to hear that Andy, our condolences to you and your family.

I know what you're going through only too well, having lost my Dad Dec. 08, Mom in 99, both my wife's parents 02 & 04, and more recently - my daughter's new father-in-law on 1/7 & my brother-in-law 1/21, and two other family friends in the past couple of months too! Ergo, my project is lagging - to answer your PM!

I'm here if you want some other sanity time, help on your 6, or an ear.

Hey Andy,

Sorry to hear this news.

I had no idea when we met in January that your dad's passing happened at all or was so recent.

Looking forward to seeing you when you have the chance.

It is comforting that he saw the YELLOW car as I did, phenomenal and done.

I am glad you got the AWSM914 back out for a drive Andy! I knew it had been a while, and I am sure it helped! I meant to give you a call today. Be prepared to mute your phone tomorrow then!
