The G & R 914 Swap meet will again be held on Oct 3.
For those of you that have not attended before, this swap meet has been held for over 15 years. It as originally hosted by the late Ron Meier ( screename Slits ) and held in downtown Riverside at Core Recyclers where he worked.
This has been traditionally a 914 Porsche swap meet. I would like to expand the meet to include sellers of any air cooled Porsche. you can bring what ever parts you want to sell. Many owners have other makes of cars too.
Children and pets welcome. Dogs need to be leashed.
Free to buyers, $20 fee to sellers.
I will be there by 6AM. Bottled water will be offered by no morning snacks as before due to Covid precautions.
Address is 10000 Indiana Ave Unit 9. Just off the 91 freeway between Tyler and Van Buren.
If you have a minimal clearance car do not use the entrance across from Roger Dunn Golf shop. I pulling a trailer it is easier to exit Van Buren.
Please pass the word to those who do not frequent the forum.
Feel free to post a link on 914 social media sites.
Bring all your unwanted/unneeded wants needing a new home.
Post any specific parts needs to alert sellers.
PM me if you need my cell number.

This used to be G & R - ie Glenn and Ron, right?
Sorry if I missed it, but what happened to Glenn? Is he still around? I was recently helping a friend work on one of his old cars that he bought about 20 years ago...

Glenn is still around. I still see him at Porsche swap meets. I think he still works for Pelican.

Yes Glenn is alive and well. He makes guest appearances at the swap meet.

Hi Folks
See you at the swap meet! Here's what I'm looking for:
- pair of side mirrors
- matching window crank handles (or one to match the plastic one I have)
- 10 2mm alignment shims (or 20mm any sizes)
- Speedo cable
- Accelerator cable
- generator
- oil check tube (not the dipstick but what it goes into)
- black dash machine screws? (could just paint some)
Cheers!

I was digging through my stuff and found a set of domed pistons I pulled off a motor I once tore down.
Can bring if anyone interested.
