Very cool.

I met her here in San Diego at the last Parade.

She is a nice person, with a very interesting background, and she dives a 914-6.

Yeah, she was way cool! Lisa damn near fell in love with her--I made sure that she went to Margie's tech session. I think it's important that she hear about the experiences of professional female race car drivers.

She talked about her time as a teacher, daily driving a 914 (and how it taught her to work on cars!), her racing career, and life after racing--including the pillows. Very cool talk.

Well, that's just what we call pillow talk, baby. That's all.

Are you going to take it apart and start a restoration thread?
tod914
Very cool, I remember those things. You might want to take the stuffing out by
the roof pillars, it's prone to mildew.
jc914
Yup they re prone to mildew i will start the restoration with a TIDE pen to fix the oil leak, then i am going to try to buff the paint to a new shine. but i am luck no rust at all this its a straight pillow. silver914.jpg 134.gif
