So Call All Porsche Swap and Car Display March 8th, 2009!

The So Cal All-Porsche Swap & Car Display will again be held on the day after the Lit Meet, Sunday, March 8th at a NEW LOCATION. This year, it will be at the Phoenix Club, 1340 South Sanderson, Anaheim, CA 92806, about a mile from the old Dunkel Brothers site. See http://www.thephoenixclub.com/ for details on this German American Club. New this year is the ability to have indoor vendor displays in the FestHalle with 11,500 feet under one roof! Outdoors, we have room for more vendors, swappers and large grass soccer field for car corrals.

This event will take us back to a simpler time in a very unique setting; to a time when the Internet was not your primary source for used Porsche parts; a time when the local Southern California Porsche owner's gathered each winter to swap, fender fondle, see old friends and appreciate the breed. There will be vendors dedicated to our Porsche hobby and plenty of swap space will be available. If you have a car for sale, bring it and put a sign and information sheet in the window and sell it.

Each car coming in for Porsche display parking will make a donation of $20. The gates open to the Porsche parking on the grounds of the Phoenix Club at 8 AM. This place is amazing and seeing all the Porsches parked there is going to be incredible! The walk-in gate will be open at 8:30 AM and admission will be $10. Breakfast and lunch, with a German flavor, will be available from open to close. For those wanting to stay in the area of the Phoenix Club on Saturday night, we suggest the AYRES HOTEL ANAHEIM, 2550 E. Katella Avenue , Anaheim, CA 92806 (714) 634-2106.

Swappers will make a $40 donation per space taken. Vendor space will also be available, but must be reserved by February 18th . For Vendor display information and reservations, contact Bob Lee at Robert.b.lee@cox.net 619-518-6632. Swappers and Vendors will be able to come in and begin set up at 6 AM. All portion of the proceeds will go to an Orange County School District charity.

So, we’ll look forward to seeing you and your Porsche Sunday, March 8th, 2009. Bring whatever money you have leftover from the Literature Meet, your Porsche friends and join us for a celebration of Porsche! Breakfast will be available, so plan to spend the day soaking in the glory that is Porsche. Watch for updates and for information; contact Jeff Trask at NO911NV@aol.com or 949-697-4499 or Pete McNulty at pmcnulty98@aol.com or 949-400-9319. Let us know how you want to be involved!

Thanks for the heads up Dave. This swapmeet is always interesting and unexpected bargains can be found. Last year, a seller had four (4) new in the box CV joints at 1/2 the original price; and I needed a pair.

I might be there later in the year. Are those meetings annual?

Hope to see you sometime

Pretty much annual, it's changed venues several times. Another swapmeet that is excellent for used parts in California is:

And, on the East coast, in Hershey, PA, they have an upcomong swapmeet that is considered the largest. There is a thread on the topic.
