Posted by: Crazyhippy Mar 4 2007, 12:00 AM

I am really sorry I am going to miss this. I have to go to a Housewares show and man the booth in Chicago with the hot model. The last time I went I needed parts and came back with the parts I wanted.

My brother and I will see you there.

Posted by: mikez Mar 4 2007, 01:58 PM

Is anyone going and getting a booth in the swap meet?

Posted by: xitspd Mar 4 2007, 05:51 PM

Mike, I am going to try and make it. Having some of that glow in the dark Chemo in the middle of the week.
Hope to see you there.

I'll be at all three events. The literature show on Saturday, then drive down to the European Collectibles open house that afternoon, then the swap meet on Sunday which I believe is right next to European Collectibles. See you all there.

finals weekend.. blegh

Posted by: So.Cal.914 Mar 4 2007, 08:42 PM

I had the same operation, before hand I bought an old elect cart. A Guards red

paint job and badges front and rear ( Stuttgart ft- 914 r ). Used it at the Long

Beach GP last year...it was great

Posted by: Elliot Cannon Mar 4 2007, 08:52 PM

How much longer are you gonna use that bullshit excuse?

Posted by: Cap'n Krusty Mar 4 2007, 11:08 PM

At 40 bucks for a 10x10 ft space, they can kiss my sweet bippy ..........................
For comparison, spaces at the GAF are 40 bucks (at the gate) 35 bucks in advance, for a 20x20 ft space. That's FOUR times the space for the money. Partsheaven is even cheaper. Be a LONG time before I line the pockets of the 356 registry, the 912 registry, or the R Gruppe. Count me stayin at home ....................... The Cap'n

Hey, Krusty...welcome back.

Didn't realize the square footage was only 100 versus 400....kinda cheesy.

Posted by: Brando Mar 5 2007, 01:02 AM

I'm not going... Not worth spending $20 and taking a sunday off of work.

Posted by: brer Mar 5 2007, 01:32 AM

second that motion.

Posted by: Elliot Cannon Mar 5 2007, 01:53 AM

I agree. I think the venue is a lot smaller than those other swap meets. You would think they might adjust the cost of a space though. $20 might have been a bit more fair. Sorry you won't make it Capn. Between that and some confusion about the location for the swap meet, (Long Beach Vets., Orange County Fair Grounds etc.) I wonder how successful this event will be? Too bad someone can't talk the Dunkels into holding it at their place again.

I emailed both of the contacts in the flyer....McNulty replied back with 30x15......

Posted by: skline Mar 5 2007, 08:28 AM

I might take a walk over there if I am not working just to look around. It is so close to me I could save on parking

Posted by: jim_hoyland Mar 5 2007, 02:01 PM

I'm planing on going; pretty close too.

Posted by: kconway Mar 7 2007, 10:28 PM

Thought this should be back on top...hope to be going to this one.

I drove past Dunkels new place today on the way to see Joe Sharp at the hospital and it is freekin HEEEEUUUGE! I wish we could talk them into having it at their place again. They sure got the room for it.
Cheers, Elliot
PS Joe is doing great.

Posted by: Brando Mar 8 2007, 12:41 AM

When the hell did Joe get into the hospital and how come I just heard about it now? surgery again?

Posted by: jim_hoyland Mar 8 2007, 04:41 PM

How big is the Babcock site ? Isn't that area pretty tight ?

Posted by: Crazyhippy Mar 8 2007, 09:16 PM

Since i'm a CSOB (and not driving the teener down, so i have room for parts) Do i still have to pay $20 for parking?

Posted by: jim_hoyland Mar 8 2007, 09:26 PM

In past years at Vet Stadium, there was a $20 fee to park "inside" and show your car/ You should be able to park free on the surrounding Costa Mesa Streets--from my experience. Be advised, there is a fair amount of theft in the area.

Posted by: Twystd1 Mar 8 2007, 09:46 PM

Also be advised that this site is across the street from the Main Police station.

Don't drink and drive.

I'm a little confused on the exact location...
Directions say you go west on 17th to Babcck and turn left; how far West of Placentia is Babcock ?

Posted by: jim_hoyland Mar 9 2007, 04:29 PM

Drove by the site, it's the very first left past Placentia. Looks like a big area.The west side faces Monrovia. Looks like an old school site that is being demo'd.

Posted by: mikez Mar 9 2007, 04:32 PM

Probably ass deep in asbestos....

Posted by: Cap'n Krusty Mar 9 2007, 04:59 PM

Copied here is an e-mail from the guy they told me is in charge of the space allocation. I inquired the day it appeared on the various lists, and this e-mail is from a day or 2 later.

"John,
Each 10'X10' vendor space is $60.00, make a check out to the Porsche 356 Club, 727 North 4th St, El Cajon, Ca 92019. Once I receive the check I will send you an email conformation and space number. As a vendor you will be able to set up the day before between 3:00 and 6:00 PM. Also you can go to the club web site bulletin board go to ( events) for the latest info and updates.

Again, they can kiss my ............
