The time has come once again for all Porsches to gather in Ravena, NY and eat great free food from the World Famous Yanni's food truck. Come, bring your Porsche, bring your friends, and bring your smiles. Hope to see everyone there!

What are "just saying." That I don't like 914's? You might have to explain that to all the Boxster guys at the last autocross who said, "I gotta get me one of those." After they saw how much more fun I was having and the times I was turning. This was a few weeks ago. So please explain what you are "just saying"
That I can't invite other 914 guys to my open house, a bunch showed up last time and had a great time. Or are you saying because a few angry guys didn't like my build I shouldn't post here, even though I've been posting here almost 10 years longer than you. Yeah, I bet you are now re-thinking whatever you were "just saying."

I'll be there. Whether or not my 914 will make it remains to be seen.

Too far for us Californians, but I would have loved to attend. Really, just to see that collection of old 356s!

I remember growing up in Atlanta Cherokee County was a school field trip, pack a lunch. I'm sure it's quite civilized now.
You should caravan up with the TN guys.

the Admins need to know that you obtained my email address and spammed me for your Fuching event!

You know that I think you a scumbag and I would have never volunteered my address to you!

I would rather be thought of as a scumbag by one guy than be known as a dick to everybody, which I think in your case, the name fits. I've gotten several emails saying to not mind you, you're just a dick, all day every day, and these are people in your 914 community.
As far as your email, I'm assuming you are in fact T.C. Davis, if this is in fact you, then you were trying to sell me a car. Here is the email.
People who don't want emails shouldn't send emails, maybe go hug your land line, or crawl into a hole where you won't be bothered, but don't complain to me. Dick!
Elliot Cannon
OK boys, knock this shit off or there will be fire and fury, the likes of which the world has never known!! poke.gif ar15.gif chair.gif

In addition to all the usual cool stuff to see at Unobtanium this year you can also check out my personal projects, the 904 and the 550 Spyder in Aluminum.

Hope to see everyone there!

If anyone is still on the fence about coming you should check out the weather report, it gets no nicer than this! With winter coming this might be the last good drive of the season, and when you leave our place you can head over to Lime Rock and watch the Historics, make a weekend out of it!

the weather looks perfect and I would love to see a handmade aluminum 550!

too bad I live so far away...

We will be giving rides on the Unobtanium Rickshaw at the open house, please remember to tip your driver!

See ya there!!!

Here are some shots from the set-up, the juxtaposition of the old vs the new will be a good talking point for people when they arrive. Not often you get to so Porsches so old next to ones that are brand spanking new, courtesy of Porsche of Clifton Park.

Hope to see everyone there, the weather is supposed to be perfect, low 70s and sunny.

The Open House went great today, we had so many cars the cops shut down the street for us! The weather was perfect and the food truck ran out of food. A better day could not have been had.
Can't wait for next year!

I like this photo. Nothing like original patina!

Did you know that my wife and I gave him that for his birthday a few years ago.

It's his favorite saying, usually said about the really expensive cars.
