I might be able to, won't know for sure until tomorrow after work.
What's the destination?

i'll meet up with you Rich. not sure if'n i'll drag the teener out but lets get together for a bite and brew.
you got any ideas on where.

We are all close by each other so why not something close. I am running to a guys house tomorrow to see how much it will cost for him to weld in my new rear floor with Engman kit. So I guess we need to figure if the 914s are going to come along and where.

It depends on how my day unfolds tomorrow. If I get everything done, I might join late depending on where everybody is going. But it might not be until 8 or 9pm..don't know.

Well... if we do something close it would be easier for you Chris. I don't care how late we stay out. My wife owes me a break from our son from me watching him all week last week while she was at a work convention.

Mill Creek, Silver lake, Everett..?
Sounds like its just we three, unless Troy can shake free.

I am cool with where ever. I have been going to a blace called Azul in Mill Creek when I can get out to a bar. It is upscale but the scenery sure is nice Somewhere is is fine too.

Hey, be sure to check out my post about the free beer this Sat in Bellevue at Park Place. I went with Troy and Eddie last year and it is really worth the effort.

Eddy

Alright guys. I should have all my work done by around 5:30 or so. Anyone know what the plan is?

the g/f father passwd away last night, dont think i'm gonna make it,sorry guys

Sorry to hear that Troy. My thoughts are with you and your girlfriend. Hope to see you guys out soon.

Jon

W/O any other suggestions lets hit Azul?

Sorry for your loss Troy. As I am still at work, it will have to be next Tuesday for me. Have fun guys!
Chris

Sounds good. What time are you thinking? I am driving my 914 as I will be kid free

I live in Everett and am wondering if there is a group of teeners in the North End that are looking to get together once in a while to talk, turn a wrench or go for a drive. I have a 73 2.0L.

Plenty of North end guys on board. They should be chiming in soon.
Keep checking in.

You live in Everett? Me too. You need to come over to see if you want anything out of my 914 pile before I dump it all. PM me as I always like to go grab a drink with a fellow teener.

Jon

Hey Chris... I have the air dam for you now if you want it.

Hey Jon, what's in the pile?

I'm in the middle of putting a new exhaust system in, finally I'll have some heat in the vehicle. A necessity if I want to get my wife in the car!

Hey Robert

A bunch of misc. stuff. Nothing for the exhaust system. I have an early seat backing in almost perfect condition, some H4 headlights, and other stuff that is going to the dump unless someone comes and claims it.

Cool! Thanks Jon! I just got back from Mexico and am catching up on v and e mails. I will be around this week, so something Tuesday sounds like fun! even if it is just for the eye candy.

When and where are you guys meeting this Tuesday?

I might be down for some parts too... I'm still discovering my cars issues. Really its in great shape, but I do have some things I need to do to it. Fortunately it's all small stuff.

-Brad

i'm another everett area guy, i'm not on call this week so tuesday is good for me.

fill us in on your car!

It's a yellow 73 2.0L with a recent rebuild, mild cam, hydraulic lifters. otherwise basically stock but strong running.

My top 5 list of things I need to fix are:
1. The horn does not work.
2. Fog lights do not work. (could just be the bulbs???)
3. Heater blower is not working. (wires on the motor are disconnected, and I can not find the loose end to plug them into.)
4. Window seals are in rough shape.
5. Hard to crank over / needs new ignition switch. probably not ACTUALLY related to each other. Engine just cranks slowly when starting... and you have to push in on the key to get it to engage the starter...

like everyone, I would like to do a bit of body work and paint. I would also really like to go through the suspension. Honestly though the car is in really good shape and I LOVE driving it!

I also have a 31 Ford I am doing some work to. I don't know a lot of people in the north end because I moved here from Port Orchard about a year ago to take a job, so my wife and I are looking for some folks to hit the road with once in a while, get some dinner or just retreat ot the man cave and turn a wrench.
I have a lot to learn about the 914. I used to drag race a 69 beetle 2.0L but it is SO not the same! anyone who says a 914 is a VW is out of their mind!

-Brad

Cool, Tuesday should have a good showing this week. I try to mention to all insurance companies that this car is a volkswagon

LOL! yes, ve are here to unpimp your ride.

there are a few of us up here in the convergence zone (as you can tell)
Have we pinned something down for tomorrow?

I just realised I have to pick my daughter up after work on Tuesday and the wife works until 9PM. Any kid friendly places we could meet up like a olive garden, bobs burger and brew, etc... I'll be in Lake Stevens to pick her up so that area would be cool for me to. I don't know where you guys normally do this.

-Brad

Kid friendly would be fine by me. Any thoughts on where?

Anyplace in Lake stevens or Marysvile. How about Bobs Burger and Brew off I-5 by the Casino?

Umm.... Would it be possible to do in Snohomish or in Everett somewhere? The traffic going up North at that time is murder.

How about the Buzz in by the casino on I-5 right before the Boeing access freeway?

You mean the one right off exit 189.... right by my house... Chris? That works for me.... I am really okay with whatever. I just would rather not drive up North on 1-5 during rush hour if it can be avoided.

That would work for me too... I work right off the Boeing access freeway. What time is good for everyone? I could be there a bit after 6 probably.

6:00 would be fine.

great i'm planning on being there.

i'll be bringing the G/F.

Wow, Troy comes out to play.... Cool, it will be good to see everyone. My wife may need to come then. Or should I not bring the women?

skip I-5 all together. up broadway, take 99 across the flats, and go up state street to 84th(?) or what used to be cemetary rd.

Unfortunately, Im out.
Wife schedualed the kids "parent/teacher" counseling sessions
this eve.

It would be good to see you Rich, but we all know family comes first. Hope you get a good report from the teacher

Anyone got a address on the buzz in? I work right next to boeing... But I get off at 5 and am going to Lake Stevens and then back south... Should be there at at 6 or a few minutes after. I'll be in the yellow 73 2.0L.

If Google Maps is my friend, this is the location:

BUZZ IN Everett

I probably have about a 2% chance of making it, but I'm going to try.

What a DAY HERE eh??? Dang, I'm driving topless and sweating in my t-shirt!

Rock on bros! (I sound like JPB or somethin). Woot.

Ok, that is NOT the one I thought it was, But that is a better location for me anyways so cool.

I thought it was the one on bothel everett highway right next to the 526.

I should be right on time to that location. See you guys at 6.

-Brad

Uh oh! LOL... Better wait for confirmation on the address. There's more than one "Buzz Inn" around here. The one by 526 is a likely candidate.

Both work, so pick one

the one on 19th. south of the boeing freeway.

i'll be there 'bout 6:30

So that would be the one off of 526 and not the one with the link?

I will be at the one off of the bothell everett highway just after 6:15.

Sounds like you have the right place Jon.

I'll just start looking for a "buzz inn" greasy spoon after I get north of Silver Lake on 19th. When I see a bunch of old ugly mutant Volkswagens I'll know I have the right place.

Ok.... Try THIS MAP LINK

Looks like I'm going to make it. Woot. Hey Jon, if you still have those H4 headlights and want to get rid of them..... Bring 'em along and I'll buy you a beer!

Sorry Rand, Chris laid claim to them already

Dang, too slow. Oh well, I owe you one anyway.
Hey wait, just to be fair, Chris and I should compare current headlights... Whoever has the dimmest, most-yellow old lights gets the H4s! Hey Chris, I'll trade you for some of Jon's other stuff.
See you guys in an hour or so.
