I emailed my reps as well.

Related note- I wish they’d allow vanity collectors plates.. Last I checked it wasn’t possible. Doing so would bring in additional revenue.

I’d also be ok with increasing the requisite age for collectors plates to be 35 or even 40 years old. Anytime I see a mid 80’s car will collectors plates it seems kind of silly. But I’m probably in the minority there.

Hey guys... I am planning a get together for some Vancouver Bc folks on a Sat Or Sun in March... Americans are welcome too

Thanks for the invitation!

I'm in Bellingham and would love to meet up with some BC teeners. Which weekend are you targeting for?

I don’t think they’ll let me get back in the states if I leave.

BTW did you ever hear back from your state rep's? I didnt.
Oh & still curious about those video interviews?

Nothing from the reps and I checked the box indicating that I wanted a reply. I’m working on the editing myself. Working with videos is more work that I knew. Thankfully the program has tutorials

Just pleased I don't live in the ST3 area. The valuation system DOL uses is fucked up too. Wait til they figure out what a 914 is worth these days. Or a 67' T-1. The condition of the car is not in their wheelhouse.

How are you not in the ST3 zone Kevin? My parents live clear out off 200th near Gem Heights and are still in the zone. Please bestow your magic upon me! $300 to register a Golf is straight up THEFT.

On a separate note, mind if I borrow your address for official purposes?

They live in Puyallup. I live in Pierce county. They have the Sounder at their convenience. Tabbing the cruiser was around $110. A month's worth of coffee for some people.

Their address is PC as well. Odd. Hijack over! Back to your regularly scheduled program.

PNW's,

After almost 10 years without a 914, I bought one!

I couldn't locate one of my old ones, so had to venture out to source a new to me 914.

It's a 1975 194-6 with 2.7.

I'll pick it up in mid March.

I'm back!

Super Dan. Local car? Where are you located these days?

We moved to San Juan Island. It was supposed to be our retirement property, but we decided to just make the move early.

My daily driver is a 66' Bug.

914-6 is in CA and I'm super excited to pick it up! The next month will be painfully waiting to collect my new toy, but just don't have the time to do it any earlier.

Sweet!!
I am glad you found one!

And

Is this the tease to a good story?

Picking up the 914 is still a month away.

Here's a pic:

Right on Dan. Congrats, and welcome back!

Nah, there's not much to tell. We've been consumed by the House build which is looking to be in it's final year. After looking things over, there's enough for me to pick up a toy. It didn't take me long to start looking at 914's. I really wanted a converted six so I wouldn't be afraid to put miles on it.

Can't wait to hear the flat six behind my head again.

Here's a picture of the house. The living space is only 1,000SQFT, but it's just Michelle and I so plenty of room. The living space is a 2nd floor on the back side of the hangar.

We're still living in our little trailer while we continue to work on the living space. We're doing it all ourselves = slow, but saves huge bucks.

Now that’s a garage door!!!

Glad you’re back in the fold. Hi to Michelle.

Wow,good to hear you are back Dan!

and do you think you will leave a bread crumb trail of oil like the last time you got one in Ca?

wasnt that a type4sale ?

oh look, I found the journey
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...31304&st=40

There's some discussion going on behind the curtain about a tour from the north for those attending WCR this year. So far, I only see myself and maybe Rich coming from Washington. Just wondering if anyone else is thinking of going. Personally, I was thinking it would be a great adventure, but Julie said she didn't want to spend 10 days in my car.

Not to take away from the SoCal gathering, but for those that can't attend, I will be doing another 914Turnout in September. The dates are 9/18-19. Still working on details, but I think I have a great speaker and an interesting tech session in the works.

Been thinking about it. The car can do it, but I'm not sure I can arrange the time off, family details, etc.

Attending another 914Turnout is a given. Had a great time last year.

I could be interested. Deb would have no part of that, however. Maybe a riding mechanic?

Also the Werks Reunion Monterey is August 14. About the same drive, but a one day event.

I see a bumper-ectomy in your future

A local 914 summer event would be best held east of the Cascades. Quincy area is central and the secondary roads are pretty much wide open. Like Skate Creek Rd in Thurston county with even less traffic.

15 years, wow that was a while ago. That was a fun road trip.

I don't have time to dig into a project so this 914-6 will remain for many years. Just too much else to do.

I'll drive the tires off it, but that's about it.

Looking forward to getting together with the local 914 crowd again.

Can't wait to see it in person Dan....
I am hoping to get one of my 914s running for next spring...
I hope to sell my 1959 Single Cab to fund a few projects first.. I hope to have it on the chopping block in a few weeks.... We will see

This weekend is the swap meet at the Puyallup Fair Grounds. I always find something I didn't know I needed.

Anyone in or near pierce county have one of these I can borrow? Or if your north of Seatac Or Kent area I wouldn’t mind paying for shipping it to me and back to borrow it.

Text me at four 0 five two 0 eight 3915

Wow! this thread has fallen WAY down there.
All you PNW peeps its Summer... time to represent!
Hey Troy @messix

Representing the true nature of 914world.

Not stock.

Need to grunge up that floor a bit. Oil spots on cardboard don’t count.

Aircraft technician is too ingrained in me at this point. Can't help but to contain leaks if possible.

I misunderstood Jim; your post said you were representing the true nature of 914World. Looking good!

Got me there Marc. And thanks. Probably won't run again until spring. More goodies to purchase.

Was hoping to do something up north soon!

What kind of muffler is that?

Triad.

What's in the plastic wrap?

Triad West muffler from Dave down in Lacey. Top notch quality and sound on the -4's.

Kevin: Rebuilt bottom end with a Web 86a and lightweight forged rods.

We put some miles on our 914 the other weekend. Be fun to get a few local teeners together for a drive maybe?

Yes! How about Saturday morning?

Would have to be late morning or early afternoon. Taking the Ferry over, dump run, then pick up supplies etc. Eats up the morning pretty quick.

I'd love to participate with the LE and get in some engine break-in miles. I think I know a few others.

Maybe Sunday morning. Less traffic
