Okay Let's take a poll, how many want a 914 neon light?? Maybe if you get really ricy you could put it in your back window....not.
That is pretty cool, any more available??

Similar to the 911 outline that Porshce uses...

The stained glass looks like Yoder's car... I bet he'd drool over that.
The mantlepiece below was designed as the Concours award for the MUSR, but I'm making another for myself.

the painting i'm using for my avatar
<--------
is an 18x24 airbrush rendering i prepared for the MUSR; i believe it's being held in trust by Joe Yoder to be issued as a door prize at this year's MUSR. the original plan was that it'd be a limited edition series of 10, so there are 9 more 'in the pipe' ...
i have a yellow 914.6 TFA pillow-car but it's in storage in PA so i can't photograph it for another couple of weeks...

Here's my most cherished one...
I got this throphy from Porsche AG in Germany
The hoodcrest in front of it was handed to my wife when we visited the factory in 2000
Our tourguide just stepped up to the production line, grabbed a handfull out of a box and handed them out
Another I'm proud of, is the original Porsche 1998 LeMans victory Poster ('98 was also the 50th birthday of Porsche)
cheers,

It was a neighbor I had several years ago who made this one for me. I don't know how to contact him but I am sure with all the neon in Vegas, I could find someone to make more. (if you are REALLY interested) I know it will not be cheap. $200 +. I don't even want to think about trying to mail it. About 5 years ago I saw the design by two diff. people a week apart. Both claimed it was their original idea??? I designed the stained glass, but the person who made it could have done a better job following my pattern. I still like it.
It is not a teener, but here is one for
Jeroen to ID. (not that I expect to slip anything by all you clever people) I am still trying to get my hands on the 914 version.

I have seen these before at the LA Porsche VW Literature and Memorablilia meet each Feb. at the LAX Hilton. The seller also doe's a 356, haven't seen a 914.
If you get more info on the neon lights please post.

I've got a couple of 914 posters on my wall, a 12-page 914 brochure from 1973 that's in mint condition and 5 books about the 914. My prize possession is a mint condition "Das Grosse VW-Porsche-Buch" that I got at Amazon.de. In it, there are interviews with the engineers responsible for the 914, clay models of the 914 and a whole lot more. Too bad my German is so poor.

Cool looking Pinball glass, I have seen a few different ones, but most had a machine attached to them.
My latest glass shelf came from a mens clothing store going out of business, I got for $75.00 , it comes apart and you can transport and reassemble rather easily.

Hey Vegas,
Our 914 club had a ceramic 914 build. Limited edition of 50 pieces scale 1:10
IIRC, it's about 15 inches
Cost in the $75 region (would have to check) and only a few left
Available in off white, black, or grey with a black roof (see pictures)
Dunno which colors are left though...
cheers,
