I new that was coming
Didn't get the VIN ? When you get this close, shoot a pic of the window VIN tag; or write it down. Then we can search the VIN database to see if it's listed, or add the vin to the database.
I'd say it's Earl's 914.
Stalker..... 
I'd say it's a nice shot 
Taking a wild ass guess here from what I can see of the plate surround-- which is blurry at best-- but I would say Earl is a Naval Academy Grad (an Officer to the unenlightend) and -- this is really a guess-- has a sailboat in that boatyard, at least 30ft. 40 yrs around a Navy base colors my judgement. Ha Ha I also really like the look of sail delete. Thought about doing that to mine.

I love that we all go up to random 914s and take pics of the VIN to make sure they're in the DB. I wonder if other "camps" do that too?

Added to database;
while you are taking a picture, shoot the VIN plate too.
He needs to get a 914rubber rear window seal. Nice car.

Yeah, but does it feel like stalking? I mean sliding up to someone's car and taking a picture of their VIN...?
OK, a car in a junkyard... yeah, but I mean some random 914 owner who may not know or care who 914World is.
I think if I came up to someone taking a picture of my cars VIN, I might get a case of the ass over it...(if my 914 was on the road)
Think if you have someone taking pictures of your high dollar later model car/truck VIN, would you be suspicious?
sounds like we need a 914world business card. that way you have a legit excuse to be in that area
