DRPHIL's 914 photo in new Panorama!

Ha! Jamie, thanks for the mention. i saw that last night. it was one of 2 75 Porsche’s from out region to get special award at the HHI Councours in November!
a 911 Targa was awarded best Air cooled car for saturday car club showcase, and my 914 was given a judge’s selection “Order of Merit” award, i was one of 4 cars overall that was selected for that award!

pretty cool. Next going to Amelia again, i submitted for The Amelia’s Saturday Cars ans Community and was snubbed by Haggerty’s selection committee

can’t win them all.

Awesome!

Stunning!

Congratulations Doc!

Well deserved recognition Phil. I was snubbed last year and didn’t even try this year. I really enjoyed that Saturday event. Oh well hopefully I will see you Friday at Werks.

Congratulations Doc. Beautiful 914

Well deserved Doc.

Way to go !

What is that SICK AMAZING color and code...???
gg

Very cool ……. You are a celeb!
TOT

Well done!

@jdamiano
yes i ll be thereand plan on driving in with the group from Jax that friday unless i am asked to help i did offer to voluntee for werks to help park and line up the 914 groups etc.


the Color is L99K, Copper Metallic, a '75 special order option that cost the original owner all of $275 !!

the event was a lot of fun , i live in Bluffton just off the island and have been there in that area for 30 years. i was so busy with interest and visiting with people that i didnt get to even leave the area where my car was showing with our club until i got the notification from the judge to get ready to drive up to the show area! The skis were a hit of course even in sunny HHI! A group of spectators, some ladies from Aspen, CO
were very complementary and enthusiastic and later got an invite to Aspen!!.

So many awesome complements , but one funny interaction stands out , i was standing behind my car getting something to eat in between discussions and i overheard a guy up by the front of the car say to his friend " that right there is the ugliest car porsche ever made" and before i could say anything someone next to him says to him " well have you ever driven one , or any other Porsche or sports car"? he says "no"and this other guy says , well, "opinions are like @ss-holes, everyone has one" and a few other things lol!!!

i have no idea who that was but that guy quickly left the area

apparently the rest of the crowd and the judges felt differently

Love those peanut gallery opinions @DRPHIL's914 !
Back several years ago we showed the black 6/ biturbo at a Beverly Hills show. A older couple walked by and the gal says "What a gorgeous little Porsche...what model is this ?"...her friend answers
"That's the 914, probably the cheapest car displayed here today". So our 914 takes a 2nd place in Euro street class, trophy presented by Jay Leno/ Mercedes McLaren SLR takes 1st place, a red Ferrari takes 3rd place. Not a bad day for the teener

well done @DRPHIL914

as to the negatroids and their opinions.

@vysoc good to hear from you Peter, are you working on that yellow sub /6 build??
thanks everyone! now i’m trying to decide how
to present it this year at Werks Reunion, 2 years ago i won with the period surf board, and last year i had the skis on it like at HHI this year . i’m thinking maybe a roof rack on the extra top ,
and safari wheels on the extra rims , light bar across front of rack for a fun safari look? -
i have ADD and get board

Nice!

Congratulations, Phil! It’s been awesome watching the transformation over the last 10+ years from an “average” car to the show winner it is today!
