That's a big 10-4, good buddy

They'll be three of us.


Paul

I'm probably in too.
Me, maybe my buddy and his wife. and the Red Neck Racer of course. ROAD TRIP.

I can show up; just finished installing rebuilt front brake calipers on the DD. Even blinged them in red.

I'll just funnel some gas outta someone's Escalade at the mall.

Three week notice....

I'll be there. I might even drive my teener this time!

Just got my Sept. schedule... I'll be there!!

Kevin, look forward to seeing you again, are you going to bring the white beast?

Yup, and you will be amazed at the progress i have had since last we met.

Yes, I'll be driving the 6. My computer crashed last week and this is my 1st 914 "FIX" in eight days. Looking forward to a good turnout @ the TBB.

T.C.

Just got a PM from Glen Clayton (greyhound) from Tampa, FL and he will be joining us for the TBB, with his wife Jackie.

Glen, welcome to the madness and look forward to meeting you, your wife and your car, '72 silver.....

Also, welcome to the CLUB.....

Rob,
I've been working every chance I get in order to have the RAT engine in my car before the b-fast, but I don't know. I may have it in but not all hooked up. Or we can come over to my "race shop" for a look see after.

And I need to get that rusted POS off my trailer, so mine can go on it.

If we get anymore people we'll have to look for another place to have it. Someplace with a private room and plenty of parking.

Paul

2 weeks notice...

Anyone else interested in attending?????

I talked to Ray Oaks and he is sorry to say that he will not be able to attend the breakfast this time.

Who the hell invited that Katrina chick!!!
Man Looks like Mississippi will suck this one up. After storm plans are now up in the air.

Don't worry about the after storm plans, just you and the family stay safe and move to higher ground.... Good luck and we'll keep you in our prayers...

1 week notice....

Still might swing by For the breakfast.
We were told to wait as long as possible before coming back. Good advice. Getting pretty antsy to get the restoration of house and home.

May see you guys in Tampa this coming week.
Paul, I will be picking my parts then also.

I'm in. Erik Watters

It dosen't look like my car will make it to the b-fast. Too much to do, too little time.

But If anyone wants to come back to my "race shop", I only live one exit up from the Cracker Barrel.

We can cut up what is left of my parts car.

Or take turns sitting in my car

Or I can show you my MASSIVE Type-4.

Come on, don't let the party end at breakfast. Let's do lunch too

Works for me ... distance is the same headin' back home whether I drop by or not.

Also, if anyone locally is interested, I'm gettin' rid of my '74 parts car that's relatively intact (4 tires and steers). Tons of good parts on it, I just can't keep it anymore (taking up precious garage space). Will email pics. And no, it's the WHOLE CAR, not just what you want ("Ooo, gimme the driver's door, the windshield, speedo, this, that, etc.").

Highly motivated seller & clean title; make decent offer and trailer it gone.

Rob,
Add two more, my boys are going to come with me.

eric

Eric,
If I get some help I can get you this windshield on Sat.

P

3 day

After b-fast how about a couple of you with good strong backs come over to my house and help me lift my engine off the stand and on to my dolly.

Rob, Joe, Eric, Steve...

Thanks

I believe I'll have to take my wife home first. But I'll come over after I drop her off.

Yea, I'll either drop Robin off, or we'll take two cars....

Paul, I'll be there to help....weak back, weak.... oh, never mind.... I'll be there...

Thanks fellas,

You guys are swell

Sorry guys, but I have a family emergency in Miami and am there as we speak. Won't be back until Sunday.

I'll have to pass on ANOTHER get-together. Guess that's just my luck.

Paul,

I'll stop by after to help.

Well, we had another very successful meeting at a local Cracker Barrel. We had 18 people, including wives and/or girl friends and children. Also, we had 6 cars show up. 2 914-6 and 4 914-4. 1 of the 914-6 are original sixes.

Anyway, here's the pics with Rob Quarles in his orange 914-4.

TC Davis in his blue six cylinder....

Glen and Jackie Clayton in their silver 914-4...

Jeff and Robyn Pelszynski in their white 914-4...

Steve Gaglione in his sahara beige 914-4...

Doug Waters in his silver original 914-6...

Sorry I missed it. Too many events today, and no running 914!

wow!! great road trip!! drove for about 4 hrs and hung out for about 3 hrs!! it was a pleasure to meet everyone. wish i could have gotten there earlier to get to know everyone better and to admire all the 914s. i've really got twin plug envy now after seeing and hearing t.c.'s engine!! WOW!!!

i wasn't planning to attend, i didn't think the weather would co-operate with the storm off shore. what a perfect day though!!! hardly a cloud in the sky, (which is extremely rare for fl. in the summer). i was hoping to get there earlier but i was running late, as i walked out the door i glanced at the clock and it read 9:14!!

didn't get any pics of everyones cars. but took a couple at paul's home.

#1, the lightweight

Thanks Doug,

Yes, I often invite people in off the street and tell them about 914 door handle repair. You can see the true joy in Steve's eyes. And Kevin looks spellbound!
