There can be a mobile 914 musical chair ride-along.
I'll probably have two empty seats.

So sorry to hear. If would still like to come with another car, you'd be welcome. And if you ordered a shirt and not coming, pm me an address.
I thought about bringing another car, but it wouldn’t be the same going on the ride in an Altima.
My two 914's are under construction but I want to meet everyone and see all the beautiful 914's. Still my favorite Porsche so i am bringing my 81 SC. I don't want Matt to drive over by himself in case of car problems and my wife wants to go. If you aren't very tall you can sit in my back seat.

I appreciate everyone offering empty seats. My father was originally going to ride with me and is still considering making the trip (he lives in upstate NY) so it'd be great if there were room for him somewhere. He's a little guy so he'll meet any height/weight requirements.

In addition to the Port Jervis PD escorting us through their town, the Matamoras PD have agreed to stop the light where we need to turn right and keep everyone together. There are 2 more lights (I think, maybe just 1) thru town, but those are straight through. Thank you to both departments.

Wife had an idea - we all get Speedos that color-match our cars then take a group photo. Of course, except anyone who has that pink color. She thought about what she had just suggested and had the dry-heaves.

Check for spark at the plug, check for fuel pressure at an injector if the pump checks out
Gotta be something simple
Tom, I’ll check for those hooks, aka the most useless thing on a 914…
Excellent! Thank you. They are useless, but cover up the hole that’s there.
