So I was sitting at a light on the way home from picking Maddie up from daycare, when a flat bad tow truck crossed the intersection with 2 cars on the bed. In the back was an old Jaguar, and in front of it was a real honest to goodness 914!

In the 5 or 10 seconds I had a view, all I could tell was that it was Gemini Blue Metallic or some similar silvery grayish blue, and had some sort of mag wheels that were mostly silver with gold in the center part.

It was the first 914 I've seen in my 'hood in 8 or so years!

Hi Dan.

Hey that is kinda cool. But what a crazy guy drives a 914 in this salty frozen crap? These are the cars we wind up restoring.

It was on the flatbed, so it was only partly crazy!

Hey Dan.. HIJACK! which south 'burb are you in? I grew up in Homewood.. went to Homewood-Flossmoor, etc.

I live in Oak Lawn, grew up in Evergreen Park (and briefly in Oak Forest and Pittsburgh PA).

Hmm, most of my memories of HF revolve around a couple girls, a band I was in, and a kick ass record store that I don't remember the name of!

That's crazy, my mom grew up in Homewood, and I THINK she went to Homewood-Flossmoor!

There's another 914 1.8 in Oak Park that belongs to a long time PCA member Jim Kutill. It is yellow (of course), and they live about a block east of Poor Phil's just south of the L tracks. You are right though, most of us have our babies tucked away till spring.

Small world guys! Yes, I remember the record store, I think on Dixie Hwy, downtown. New & used stuff. I can't remember the name either... its been 20 years!

Makes me afraid to post a new topic about what the going recommendation is for Porsches in the winter (besides not driving them ) or if I've even picked the wrong model to obsess about

I drive mine daily
