delivered a 914.

You do the 405? I think I saw you the other day and I 'chirped' my siren (way unmarked cop car) at you as I passed.


FYI: I will do that to ANY 914 I see as I commute to work with you.......since we didn't come up with an offical wave!

Wasn't me, my commute doesn't get me off the city streets here in the capitol city or out of 3rd. Looking forward to a dry weekend.

Kewl, I'm going to start cruising up and down 405 just so I can get 'chirped'.

Wow, are you thinning your heard to just a few?

Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday to all the Folks of the 914 world that live in

the PNW

I was driving 405 between Bellevue and Kirkland. Silver teener.

Ditto

Troy Had to go four pages deep to find your thread

Lets keep it on top for the HOLIDAYS

Wishing a joyful Christmas to all my extended family and mark your calendar for Jan 2nd. I haven't confirmed I can get a tv for the football game, but I confirmed that I can use the shop in Auburn for a build party. I'll post more information next week

cheers

HoHoHo

914 is up in Mt Vernon storage, so no driving it for a while.

Monster decided to put 11.92 volts out that super sweet 35amp generator yesterday. Try push starting that in a Target parking lot.

Gotta get that one fixed this weekend.

Merry Christmas!

914 is on jackstands again, working on the push rod seals since I messed up when I had the engine out and installed the new ones Car was leaking oil like crazy (lesson learned, fill in oil when the engine is out of the car and check for leaks, never put the engine in and find out later that the car is leaking).

Happy Christmas to all

Merry Christmas you guys

Dave

LMAO!!! If you did that to me my first instinct would have been that my speedometer was off and I was speeding a little more than I thought! That and wow... I was passed by the coolest cop ever since I didn't get pulled over! Maybe we should get that wave dialed in!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Yes, Merry Christmas to everybody!
and remember there are only 6 shopping days left to my birthday! 1957 gold top Les Paul is top of the list again this year, vintage tube amps are nice as well. Of course if you still want to stay in the car line of thinking, an RSR six will be appreciated. Maybe you all should get a collection going...

why would we get you stuff like that?......

every thing you touch falls apart!!!

only Porsches have that issue with me

Harsh!

Bump for the FNG
He has a nice 70, I met him at the junk yard , I mean recycle center .


BTW I did get the studs I was after.

Heres a pic of my 914

Jeff, the 914 looks great!

I've lost track, this isn't the one you picked up from the Lk Stevens guy years back? That one Jon has now and this is a different one?

I really, really love that green on 914's.

FNG here ! glad u got those studs ! looking forward to one of theses teener tuesdays,but i'm not wading thru 170+ pages to figure out where ! some giv me a clue ,sell me vowel ,do something to help me find it ! thanx !

Did Jeff show you the secret wave? What about the handshake?

Tuesday Teeners are held at undisclosed locations known only to the person who gets one started and then alerts the others. Or, two people agree and alert the others. It's rare to get three people to actually agree, but many have been known to just follow along in case a breakdown occurs at which point they all descend on the car and strip it of parts, oops, I mean, fix it.

No need to wade back through 170 pages, unless you want to find out where the skeletons are hidden. Just keep watching this thread going forward and join us when the show comes to a theater near you. Again, welcome. There's a bunch of guys here who will love your car like it's their own. It's pretty well assumed that if you own a 914 you'll be strange enough to fit in.

My plans are to spend a day grinding on my project... Lots of sealer and crap to get off before I go to media blast...

Your a bit ahead of me....Ive got to finish removing parts (Front and rear suspension are all thats left) then scrape the excess crud off...then off to media blast...Have you got a quote on the blasting yet? What kind of media are they gonna use?

Keep us posted....

Steve

Hi Steve,
Alternative blasting in Marysville. Rich and I both do a lot of business with them. I don't have a quote yet, but I will ask Rich and see if we can get a bulk discount...

Im gonna be a while before Im ready....working on the shop itself....I appreciate you thinking about a group discount and IF I were ready Id be game..More or less curious about cost and who does it...Do they prime stuff after blasting? Im not sure if If I should use walnut, glass bead, regular sand or? OR if anyone really gives you the options to do so...

Thanks again.....

Steve

You can't die for a very long time. Who else is going to help me make sure my kids knows all the cool stuff you do

My dad has an old '70s Yamaha you my like to see. It needs restoring badly. Something I have meant to take on but 914s keep getting in my way

yep. Great little bike. I love the 400f. Trade ya!

@Jon what kind of yammer hammer?

so my new location is my last location ! i moved a year ago !lol anyway it's the old service bay in the back of what once was Dywane Lanes in downtown evertt , now known as Golds Gym !

Damn it Chris, I don't know bikes...lol. You'll have to come check it out sometime. We can do a Teener Tuesday at their place sometime. They have a big house with a nice chunk of land right off the Mukilteo Blvd.

sounds cool Jon. btw. i left you a vm. Happy new year!

I'm headed down to the Auburn shop for some creamsicle time (sounds nasty). I've got the ducting for the airbox and putting the thing back on jackstands to do some touch up on the unercoating. Need to decide if the gas tank needs a seal job. When I pulled the sock filter it looked great. I've got the POR kit, but damn that takes a long time to do. Then again, nows the time. I've got my camera with me tonight and I'm going to snap a few. We'll see how late I work and that will determine if i post any

Well you found the 914 guys of the PNW! cogrades on the new car. I've seen

Hagerty say those old Hondas are collectable. Hope to see you at a event.

ok so i hav this ability to step in shit and turn it to gold ! found a 914 for $1000 on skagit cl , called the guy about some parts. today i go pick up the screw jack i was missing ,a nice set of porsche carpeted floor mats, a washer bottle air fill line , and he thru in a rear window all for free ! didn't hav to sped a penny !lol the car is still for sale it has 2 engines a 2.0 in the car and the other is out , car is stripped down for redo so u can c what all is wrong. anyone wanting his number pm me i hav it he also had an xtra chrome front bumber,xtra targa top,rear valance etc.

You guys are slippin! Found this on pg 4! Have about a month and a half left over here across the pond , er, world. And after almost 4 years out of the loop I will be returning to the 914 world(no pun intended). Found a car in Kansas close to my post, but am still looking for a possibly better car. If I pick it up, I plan on driving back to WA and back for leave unless Camp914 has a better car. Calling him in the morning. Then I will fly out and drive back. Got enough saved up for some decent goodies too....

Anyhow, I will be back in WA at the end of March. Where's the BBQ?



And here's the car I found so far. Doesnt look like the Hell Hole is bad, just some surface crap. My decision is pending a poke check once I get back. Learned my lesson with my '74.....

Photobucket link here....

Jim be patient , I would not drive this back to WA.
