As many of you know Ron Meier who hosts the 914 swap meet for many years passed away suddenly on August 3. In honor of him I am renaming the swap meet.
Please email me pictures of previous swap meets to post in this listing and Craigslist ads we will post. I will post in the Inland Empire Craigslist. I ask that others post in other California regions including but not limited to SD, Orange county, LA, Ventura, Arizona. Each year we attract new 914 owners who have not heard about the swap meet. If you are a member Facebook or other Porsche forums please post it. Please post the relevant data from this post. Date: Sunday, October 23 2016, 6AM -Noon. Where : My shop and parking lot area at 10000 Indiana Ave Unit #9, Riverside CA 92053 https://www.google.com/search?q=10000+india...-8&oe=utf-8 Located off of Indiana Ave between Tyler and Jackson. My shop is in the second building back from Indiana facing away from the street. There are usually many red and yellow signs for the neighboring BBQ Island shop called Gillian's Island I will request a $20 per seller donation. Free admission to non sellers. Food: I am having catered tacos with three kinds of meats, rice and beans. Water and soft drinks. Cost for taco plate is $10 per person. We have about 20 car spaces available along the North- South wall. Car parking will be between the first and second (10000 building). Few other businesses are open on Sunday so parking should not be an issue. No parking in the non stripped parking spaces. Please reply to this thread to keep it bumped and to give me an idea as to the number of people who are may to attend. Pass the word to those who may not frequent this forum or any 914 owner you know. I will also be posting Craigslist ads with a similar announcement and will request that others help post in same info in the LA, San Diego and surrounding areas. Please reply to this thread to keep it bumped and to give me an idea as to the number of people who are may to attend. I can be reached by cell at 951 536 seven for seven ate Bruce |

Thanks to all who attended. I would like to expand the swap meet to include air cooled 911 which are such such great parts donor cars.
Also considering another meet in January 2017. Knowing weather can be an issue I would choose two weekend days and if the weather looks bad bump it to the next weekend. Third change is to have a food truck from 8-12. The taco deal is liked buy I have a flat fee regardless of how many people eat and have fallen far short of covering costs. Any feed back is welcome unless you don't agree with me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) A note of thanks to the great crowd who attends. I have never had a problem with cleaning us afterwards and never have any parts that disappeared. It was great to see Peter get out to the swap meet and his progress in battling the health issued he faces. Seeing the smile on his face made my day. Bruce |
