SoCal Contingent.

you chicago guys shouldn't miss the opportunity to meet clayton .

great guy

I'm down. Not sure what the weekend schedule is, really, but I will see what I can come up with. What is your schedule? I'll send a PM/give you a ring

Also, in the unlikely event that enough Chicago area peeps are interested, I may be able to bbq. Weather is supposed to be good. Bummer "CheeseheadMark" won't be in the area. Or maybe that's good...

( Not that I'm motivated by my new-to-me teener...)

Hi Clayton.

Sorry to hear you are stuck here in Chicago. I would love to get together but there is no chance I can get away this weekend. I hope some other member can meet up with you. Just the same, I hope you enjoy your stay.

Mark

Hi ya fellas,

Looks like I am gunna call BigDBass and see what we can come up with.

Clayton

Shit Howdy,

The BigDBass and I are getting together for a Sunday bash of 914 thinking, taklking shit and hoefully tuning on his new (to him) car..

Should be fun...

Thanks for stepping up fellas,

This club is such an amazing place...

This is REALLY an interantional brotherhood.

Regards,
Clayton

Yeh, he pharts like a NASA windtunnel.....woooooosh..

you could give him a run for the "blowing hot air contest"

Ya know A-aron Amin....iffin Brad gave ya an enema you'd be the size of Billy Barty.

hey = keep your jokes to a level where i dont have to google the punchline!



and dont they do that in the san mateo PD???

Aw man, he wasn't forthcoming about the flatulence!

Not 5 minutes before Clayton called I was thinking I'd like to TALK 914 rather than type/read for a bit. His call interrupted one of my many recent "staring sessions" during which I smile to myself and confirm that this really is MINE.

He's already trying to get me to replace my 4 day old tires!

Clayton/Dan,
Where are you guys meeting? First weekend out with the 914 this year. A great excuse to take a drive and meet up for a few hours. I'll give Clayton a call tomorrow. My cell is (630) 688-1329 if either of you get a chance.

No matter where Clayton goes he only finds happyness under a 914
getting greasey

Ya know something Craig...

You right....

Twystd1

I know because I'm just like you wrenching on stuff
and getting greasey

Then we both need a therapist...........

Twystd1

Hey bro take care and have a good time in chicago.

Thanks Craig.....

I am jonesing for some brotherhood...

Clayton,

I was thinking of getting started on my pedal cluster replacement...
I'm in Evanston. 23 miles as the crow flies. Are you still here???
I'd have called before, but I've been on jury duty and got way
behind on car stuff.

Skip

Don't miss the opportunity to meet this man, he is a true gentleman... There is nothing he wouldn't do for a friend...
Hey Twyst, I dryer is broken,can you stopby and fix it?

Chris and Skip (and anyone else),

Clayton and I set up meeting at my place on Sunday morning around 10:30AM. I'm on the sout' side in Oak Lawn. PM for my address/phone if you want to join us.

SKIP...!!!!

Looks like I am going to be in Chitown longer than expexted.

Lets get your pedal cluster fixed....

Call me (949) 232 --- 3873

Lets see if we can line it up and giterdone..

Clayton

Clayton,

Skip

Mike,

Cousin Guido brought the Pizza..

The Pizza in Chicago is unreal... Seriously superb..

So Mike,

Hey Mike, when ya gunna get a real EFI system for the speedster???

Twystd1

Bought a Megasquirt....gotta get the damn thing outta the paint shop.....add it and the intercooler that's sitting on the shelf right next to it...

Took a few pics...


Chris (auggie91420) showed up in his SUHWEET '73 2.0.

I showed 'em how to do it Sout' Side style: Sitting in lawnchairs in the driveway eatin' Chicago pizza. Unfortunately, they ate it too fast to even get a picture of the evidence:

1st shot: Clayton fixing "something"
2nd shot: Drooling over Chris's car
3rd shot: My reaction to the huge amount of 914 knowledge being flung about

GGGeeeeZzzz,

I had no idea I was that good looking until I saw these beauty shots...

Now.... back to my facial and massage...

Twystd1

My father-in-law stopped by in his '57 Buick Roadmaster Super.

Last one. Another bad pic of Chris's fantastic car:

Hey Dan, I like your hair cut. Watch out for clayton, he can be a bit of a tail gunner

OUCH.....

Twystd1

Thats what he said!


Hehe...c'mon man, ya know I'm just goofing with ya


cause your you

Nah, he said I was ugly. In fact, he was trying to convince my wife that she was too good lookin' to be married to me

He always tries that approach. He told my fiancee the same thing....and me too.


He may be right about us, though.

Oh, your wires look fine so I wouldn't worry abou them. That swith was obvious, no?

No doubt...

Dan,

Any time you need Clayton and I to stop over and start your car on fire again, let us know. We'll be glad to help.

What I learned on Sunday:

1. Dan picked up a killer car in Minnesota. All of the hard stuff($$$$$) is in great shape. Some easy clean-up and he's golden.

2. Wish I knew Clayton before I put my motor together, probably could get an extra 100k miles out of it.

3. Clayton's not right.

Welcome to 914 ownership. You got an early taste of what its like to own a 30+ year old car. At least the switch is an easy fix. I'll do what I can to help.

Give me a call if anything else comes up, always looking for a chance to get the 914 out of the city. We'll pull the motor later this year to clean everything up and fix your vacuum leaks. But for now, drive it and enjoy.

Hey Chris, it looks like you fixed your smiley problem?
