Today was beatiful. Took one of my clients for a ride. He was giggling like a little school girl when we went around some of the corners. I think I have him convinced that he needs to get one biggrin.gif . I can't feel my toes though sad.gif
Rand
Dammit Jon, it's almost 40 degrees this afternoon!! I keep telling you to stop driving bare-footed. Wear slippers next time! Ya weenie. tongue.gif
Rand
Oh, and Marc (the KELTY one), I look forward to seeing you. Just keep those nipples inside your shirt. It's hard enough keeping Troy under control. Haha.... TROY??? Where are you?

It was tough not being able to drive the 914 today with how nice it is. I was hoping to have the exhaust backdate project finished this weekend, but it looks like I need another afternoon to get it done. dry.gif

Rand, you still want the old exhaust? If so beware, as I may also try and wrangle you to help out with a break bleeding when you show up! I have a couple of cases of beer left over from a poker party over the weekend if that helps. biggrin.gif
Rand
Hey Robert. Yes! But no coaxing needed my friend. Let's do it.

It was a very nice day. I can't wait to get my car done so I can drive it on days just like today. driving.gif

Rand,

We met randomly once down at Juanita Bay Park! It was last fall I think.

Zach

Rand
Geoff, what's with this creature comfort stuff? You going to play CDs that will make that thing go faster? chair.gif
PeeGreen 914

Hi Zach. I remember you now... Just didn't make the connection to your online name here.

Hey Jeff, you gonna have that thing ready for WCR? I'd love to come by and see your project some time.

Today was the first day that I commuted to work in my electric 914 with its new transmission. It's great to come to a stop light and have the car silent from the stopped motor.

Cheers,
Tim in Portland

It was a blast driving the teener today, especially when my destination was Fordahl's Shop, there is always fun P-Car stuff in there.

Its pretty cool how a nice day in Seattle will get EVERYONE out and doing something!

When I lived in Magnolia, I kept a kayak down on Lake Union and would cruise around the cut. Good times.
PeeGreen 914
This area is so beautiful this time of the year when the sun is shiningthat you just can't pass up doing something or you totally miss what the NW has to offer.

Don't forget window tuning. With a solo driver the passenger window needs to drop down about an inch and a half and the driver's window about 4-5 inches from the top of the door. With a passenger, the configuration is completely different - pretty much all the way up for both windows.YMMV

Looks like another day in paradise!
PeeGreen 914
Well, if you have headers with no heat you just have to dress warm. And the top only goes on for emergencies biggrin.gif
Bleyseng
Couldn't stand it any longer and went an got the 914. Started on the first crank (luv FI)

Drove around in the sun with the heat ON! windows up!

PeeGreen 914

Hi Geoff - looks like you're southbound on the viaduct in the west lane. Judging from the tach you're lazing along in 4th at about 55mph. Dontcha just love the sound of the car in that covered structure?

rhodyguy
i like the battery st tunnel in 3rd with the right foot way into the throttle. under the I-90 cover on mercer island sounds good too.

With all of Kevins help today in subfreezing tempatures I have a good feeling that I will be driving soon. driving.gif

Nice... Just in time to make the first AX biggrin.gif February 16th in Bremerton. Go to pnwr.org to pre-register piratenanner.gif

Snowing? Hope everyone is NOT driving their cars today!

No driving today, but a lot yesterday! Thanks to Rob and the muffler he sold me I drove around for a couple of hours yesterday. Made a trip over to West Seattle along Alki. Awesome view, should have brought a camera.

I didn't realize the heat I was missing out on. With the new SS in place and new heater hose (without holes in them) the teener heats up amazingly well!

BTW I love driving northbound along the viaduct, but I cross my fingers evey time I'm on there.

Thanks for the good words Marc. Seems like no project is easy on these cars! My exhaust backdating turned into a timecert install as well as some cutting and welding to get rid of some rust on the passengers side suspension console. ack!

Looking forward to some dry weather to meet up with everyone again some upcoming teener tuesday!
