turtle girl ( work in progress )
linda /L
jenny used too ( until she found a guard rail )
toast

i think thats all but i am probably wrong

edit : betty ( clay's wife ) and she does not drive his he drives her's

I know of a lady that drives a V8 914 as a daily driver, Dosn't post here but maybe her husband will chime in.
They have 2 914 V8's

I have and drive a 914 and don't have a husband.

I got another one after the guard rail incident. And it's mine. Although my bf eventually wants a 914 as well.

Gwen Golub
Birgit
Lyressa

My wife had one....till I ripped her off

It's good to see all these ladies interested in 914's. Hope this rough gang didn't chase them away after the wild stories @ WCC.

Jenny, Mrs. K & Toast you are good sports.

Also good to see Shelby back.

Were you looking for one???

Did you guys see the two and a half men episode with the Boxster?
I didn't believe that people thought the Boxster is a chick car until they made a whole episode about it.
Sorry about the hijack!!!

Not looking right now, just having fun being single. So many curvy roads , so little time.

Here is my friend Ann... She is a Senior chick I guess. She has owned her 914 for 25 years. Eddy

Hey Shelby,

Hopefully you can attend our Mid-West meet in August 2005 since your the only single female within driving distance to the meet. I talked to Dick, Gary & Tom (chairpersons) about having a special row of 914's for the single guys & gals. I am also trying to talk them into one for "Desperate Housewifes". You know something for everyone.

Tom
BTW
I am just trying to help NWC early entry decisions.

Hey Tom,
Sounds like you've got it figured out!Let me know all of the details,where and when,and I will try to make it.I am going to the Porsche Funfest at Tweeks(or Midwest Motorworks as they are now called) in June.

Baby, can I drive your car?



John Lennon's long lost cousin

I spoke with a girl named Heidi in East Hartford (I think) who has a 914. I don't think she posts here but might be lurking.
My wife keeps bugging me to give her one of her own.

Hi Shelby,

Thanks for your interest. I'll get MWC information to you. You just increased interest in our Mid-West meet by 50%. We have lots of single guys without a life just waiting to (meet) see your 914. There really great guys, just don't known how to talk to a good looking girl like you. You & your 914 will be placed in the center of the action.

I don't know anyone in our area going to Tweeks, but now that everyone knows you will be there it's going to be interesting.

Tom
BTW
I just celebrated my 40-yrs anniversary, so don't worry about me. I will protect you & just want you to enjoy 914 fellow-ship. It's always great to have nice girls like you around.

My wife had one and likes to think our current 914 is half her's. ...I havent had the nerve to tell her otherwise.

Your spelling is perfect!!

I also don't have a husband - the car is better

Cats914 is a new member and I can assure you that she is another Female owner.

Ok... this question finally flushed me out of the shadows (me lurk long time).

My name is Betty and I own a 914...

I've had my car since before I had Clay!

betty,

your avatar is rediculously funny

It's my wifes car, I fix it, drive it sometimes, and she is not the posting type.

Her name is April and a 914 was the first car she ever had, if it wasn't for that I would have no idea how fun these cars are.

Thanks, but I can't take credit for it. I stole it and can't remember where I found it. My apologies if I lifted it from anybody here!

Yea.. don't call Pam a "chick".... Or Betty either. In Betty's case she is likely to 'whup up on you both on and off the Autocross course!!!

Nah... I couldn't care less what anybody calls me.... just don't call me late to the autocross!

My signal orange roller was "the wifes car" but I have since promised it to my 7 yr old (in avatar when 4). He loves to tell the kids at school he owns a ......... 914.

Well, since you brought it up...

There are a few in the PNW. Pansyboy aka Rhody Guy his wife has a Malaga red 75,. Ted Cooper bought one for his wife, I don't think she gets to drive it since Ted is always coming out to CAMP 914 and buying parts to fix the car. I bought one recently from a lady here in Portland who owned the car since new and had driven it daily since, extremely well maintained 914. Sold the car the next day, new owner, male, was a Happy Camper.

What car???

"How may chicks own a 914"? Well, they can buy one for themselves, they can get someone to buy one for them (may require significant commitment, whether they like it or not), or they can steal one. Other than that, I see no reason why they may not own one, what with equal rights and all ........... The Cap'n

My wife keeps bugging me to give her one of her own.

I wish my wife would ask for her own

I've offered to get her a totally stock one and not touch it, but she'd rather just make fun of my car

After the three laps Noel did at Streets of Willow, she wants one now. I will have to see how I am gonna pull that off while I am in Med school I don't want to buy one in the rust belt. I may use it as an excuse to fly out west and drive one of Skline's or Twystd1's finds home with the woman. We will see. Eventually, she will have one.

Cap't there is another way. I won mine (sort of). I entered in a large car show, they were giving away a restored 57 nash metropolitan. I won it , then traded it, real fast for the 914. I was having a good day , very lucky.

I wanna get Lucky!!

Traded? I hope they threw in some cash. Restored Metropolitans are bringing MAJOR bucks now ............. The Cap'n

No cash, just a trade I didn't want it , but I did want the 914. This was a few years ago ,and the guy I traded with still has the Metro. I know I'm happy with the 914. so I guess we are both happy.

Hiya Pam!

You say that like it's a bad thing...

I'm sort of in the same boat. When my car's broken, Clay takes over. I suspect it's actually because he can work on cars much faster than I can (I like to bag things and number them), and my glacier-slow pace exasperates him... Oh well, at least my fingernails stay cleaner!

I'll have one someday. If I keep saying that, maybe it will happen.

I'll have one someday. I'll have one someday. I'll have one...

In the 20 years Betty and I have been together, I have only beaten her ONCE. It was due to the fact that she had a real bad headache that day, and didn't take her last 3 runs......


As I told them at Parade when she beat me yet again " I have been chasing her tail for 20 years, and I still have not caught it!"


I look at it this way. I am the mechanic that makes the car fast. She is the driver that actually drives it fast.




Where would Michael Shumaker be without his mechanics??????

If it was a piece of crap, maybe. But since it's not...

Ordella belongs to Nanette. She's wanted one since 1973.
