Just returned from attending the swap meet at Tweeks in Effingham, IL. I 'm a bit disappointed in the amount of Porsche related stuff that was there. One 75 white 914 for sale, a lone Pedrini wheel, and perhaps two sets of SS heat exchangers. A couple of 911 Targas for sale too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
If I owned a Corvete, this was the place to be. Tons of good Vette parts and one hell of a lot of cars. Some really nice Vettes at that. Guess I'll just have to wait until they have there Funfest in June. Anyone else make it today? Curious as to what you thought. |

The Tweeks meets here in SoCal (Long Beach) in the early 90's were pretty nice. That was in the pre-web days so it was a key place to hunt for parts, along with Pomona. I also used to buy quite a lot of new parts at Tweeks as they had some good repro early 911 bits (decals, rubber, etc) and slightly better prices than Performance & Automotion.
I just got their latest catalog, reflecting the dump of the name Tweeks. How times change... |
