Let's do a group buy on this. 50 914 owners sign up to be there and dr 914 shows up

Those were the exact words from the doctor.

So let's start a list of members showing up in Hershey and get the Dr. to meet us.
I volunteer to set up the list of all members willing to show up in Hershey April 28th.

I, myself will travel 8½ hrs down to Hershey on Fridayand head back home on Sunday
It would be nice to meet all together for a drink Saturday night after the swap meet.

Showing up are:

First ten

I am planning on it right now. Won't have the 914 with me by then but will be fun to look around. I will be comming from 7+hr away.

If there is something cool going on the night before I will be there. Something with naked women would be nice!!!

My brother and I will be there. We are both members.

I'm sorry. I can't bend over and kiss someone's ass like that. If he wants to go to Hershey, why should he need to demand a particular size audience?

I go to Hershey every year with a large group of friends. If George were to just say that he was going to be there, I would stop by to say Hi. However, I don't give in to egotistical demands.

I'll be at Hershey, but don't add me to your list.

Pay my hotel bill and "I" will show up......

As I do every yr. I'll be there. THe DR. can stop around to the peoples choise area and say Hello, black 73, Ohio licence 73914, So can every one else. Chocolate Land Motel is a good place for all 914's to meet. It's on Chocolate Ave ,of course. Put me on the list .
Dave

I always get the Hershey Squirts after eating at slit's place, and there is atleast 50 people there, so see you in April Doc

I am going to see 914's and buy 914 parts. Who cares if george comes? What is the obsession? He did not event the 914... I guess I just don't get it?????

buy me a beer and a jet blue ticket and i will show up.....

no offense doc... you arent royalty

There's something about a group buy at the top of the page. Maybe it's not for royalty, but confirmed purchases.

But just in case-- I'll show if 50 people pay my way there.


Jen

ok so if jenny is there... i will show up.

Seeing as I live like 45 miles from it, I'll be there.

Zach

Gimme a break ... it's Hershey + a whole bunch of Porsches. Tellin' me this guy can't show based on that alone?

Boy, talk about a GOD complex ...

Dr. WHO? Aaron I agree....................

Dan

i go to Hershey every year (except the year it fell on my spouses birthday ). nice drive, up early to frederick, up rt 15 past gettysburg then to hershey. about 2.5 hrs door to door. maybe the dr would like to hang with us?

I'll be going this year again. Last year was my first visit to the Aquafest. If it doesn't rain, I'll bring the 914. Only about 70 miles for me all on Rt78/81.

Spoke

That is a ridiculous comment. I have a lot to do here and am on the phone all day talking to fellow 914 owners. It would be a great effort and loss to our customers for me to leave here. It has nothing to do with some honorarium or anything like that and for the most part a joke.
However that being said I have devoted my life to these cars so maybe there should be a little hero worship for saving so many and collecting so many and promoting the marque so enthusiastically.

And I do give good speeches by the way!!!!!!

Hey....pull my finger.....

hero worship

Was that really just said.

Cool...so now lets just suck up to this guy...you know...not the one that screwed quite a few people in the past...called names...naw not that one? lol gosh its amazing how quickly everyone can forget stuff....haha this is so stupid its funny.

I believe this thread is nothing more than a head count. So if your in,your in. If not,you will not be there,therefore,you will miss out on meeting one of the coolest guys on the Eastcoast.


















Me!

haha you got me there! lol I thought you were talking about the *hero* Dr. 914 himself...lol

I too am a hero! In my daughters eyes.

Hey guys,

Come on, Isn't this site all about the cars and the people?
I never mentioned that one guy was a Hero or a god ! All of us love those little cars, have worked on them and had some experiences, some more than others but it's the way we share those experiences and the help we provide to each other that makes this place our local hangout.
I, myself had my own experience with AA but did my story get to the owners attention? Who cares anyway. I did not want to open a can of worm here but just try to get 50 or more 914 enthusiasts to meet and the fact the Dr mentionned if we could get a group together, I thought it was a great opportunity to put up a friendly meeting among us and finally be able to put some faces to same names and alias.
So please, if this idea I had to gather as many teeners to meet for a drink is gonna cause dispute or wake up old grudge than I would ask the admin to delete this thread.

I'm in for the love of these cars and the friendship among us.

God bless all,

Steph in awfully cold Canada.

We need to work on a secret handshake. So we know who is or is not from the club. Any suggestions?

I usually drop trow.....but I don't drink anymore...or any less....

Steph is right, and if I wasn't so far away I would be there, and still might!

From awfully colder Canada. 500 miles North of Steph!

Doug

Come on Doug,

Make an effort.
I know you can show up.
It would be cool to meet you again.

Steph

I had a hat for that occasion and others but don't want to promote it there or anywhere else really.

Hershey is an annual event for me. Add my name to the list.

-pt

Did it have,lets say another "club"script on it?

Planning to be there if schedule allows.

I will be the guy wearing a black jacket/ a red hat and I may or may not be wearing pants.

Is it really that important to you?
I'm just going to meet more people that are interested in these old cars. I don't care what board they read.

Zach

That's what I love to hear !

Steph

For me the big thing is to get a greater sense of community of the people I interact w/ , read about, and deal with on this board. Having a central meeting point or an easy way to identify someone walking by from a hat they have on is a good thing esp. if it is a rainfest again you don't have alot of time to stop and talk to find out if they are someone you talked to on the board.

I could care less "what 914 board they read" My comment is more towards the 914members as opposed to meeting members like "tyekneepp" from the 911 times. I can assure you that every 914 owner there will not be driving their 914 so you are not going to know who "people that are interested in these old cars are" will you now?

Thank you. Someone who understands.

I've never been, would like to go, don't worship George but do admire him- as far as I know he was the 1st into 914's as a full time profession & I've been pestering him since I was 17 & I'm 44 now. Please "pencil" me in- I'll try but I'm currently trying to buy a garage/house so who knows.

Of the people that have posted here on this thread the only ones I have met is Jim(type 47) and Zach(vacca rabite) ever so briefly at the ECC. I would hope I would be able to recognize them. The meeting place or an identifying hat would be great because I would hate to miss anyone.
I hope the weather will be good w/ vendors, sellers, and deals for all. Although I don't agree w/ Geprge asking for a fifty member commitment for him to show. People like Charles Navarro of LN Enginerring and Mark Engman traveled from a distance and set up in the rain last year w/o any commitment to see a certain number of members. Chuck gave away a bunch of piston cylinder keychains to passers by.

Sorry, folks ... didn't mean to bring on an El Niño.

I rest my case.

Don't get your pantys in a twist George, around here you need a thicker skin than

That. Next week it will be something else.

I'm only a couple of hours away, so I'll definitely show up. George said something about buying a drink for whoever shows, so that's enough for me. Screw all you guys - I'm in it for the free beer!

Planning on going, schedule and weather may change that though . . .

the point here is that I really value my pink panties and when that rouser rousered them up it hurt and now I have to wash them but only do my laundry on the weekends. This whole week now thanks to rouser I am going to be in a bad mood. Maybe someone can send me a new pair of purple ones to dry my tears

I'll definitely be heading out there, though my 914 project is still in its jackstands phase and therefore not drivable so I'll be driving the suby. I think someone told me that you need an engine and maybe seats to drive a car, can anyone confirm this?

Hey doc, you shouldn't use panties to dry your tears, especially if they're used.
