I'll also be there (and have a vendor spot). Driving up that morning.

Engman, will you be selling your pedal board kits and all? That should make you easy enough to identify.

BTW, don't sleep till noon. The good stuff is all gone by then...

SMD
JerryP
...had some parts to sell but my dad will be in for some surgery on the 21st so the vendor spot is out. If all goes well though...I'll be there Saturday...walking around drooling and asking lots of stupid questions....just like every other year. beer.gif

I always come back late and pick up most of my Junk wacko.gif Most guys will take a offer on it if it means they don't have to pack it up again..

Love those swap meets...Swap'n cash for crap wub.gif ...With some good stuff thrown in for good measure clap56.gif

if'n you spot me in my AA T-shirt, it's because it has a nice cut away pix of the 914 (like in the Haynes) and it was FREE and i'm a CSOB...... please, don't throw rocks at the wearer....
Dr Evil
I live here so I am in. If anyone has car issues, I have a local support spot wink.gif
turboman808
This sounds really cool. I will have to come down and buy some stuff biggrin.gif

I need some fancy pedals and floor boards. Not to mention I would love fiberglass bumpers and carbon hood and trunk.

I'll bring cheap japanesse shiftknobs and clip on pedals for all...

Then we can all do donuts in the parking lots.
evan
Hey I am new to this Hershey swap. Do a lot of people show up with their cars? Mostly 914's or all Porsche's ? I am hoping to bring my 10 yr. old nephew who's had a rough year with mom and dad seperating. I think he would get a kick out of driving up and seeing a lot of cool cars.

There's been 1000+ cars in the Porsche only lot some years...

Count in TWO more from the Great White North !

We are driving in for the weekend and hopefully early
enough to visit Carlisle for the Classic Car event on
the Thursday/Friday. Were staying at the Cocoa Motel
in Hershey. Hopefully we can hook up with some other
in the area and at the swap meet. This will be a First
trip to Hershey meet and looking forward to the deals !
SORRY won't get to drive down the 914 V8 this time sad.gif

to bad it's not a carisle. thats a fun place. But I have never been to hershey and would like to go.

Now who is gonna bring there bicycle??? I need a bike rack.
wilchek
Send me a PM if you plan on attending and your are driving your 914. I will get a group location for thw 914 club in the porsche only parking. We just need a minimum of 10 cars. It may be easier to meet up that way. Hershey is a big place and it is hard to get everyone in one spot.
zymurgist
I'll show up with Babydoll if she's running by then. (Knock wood.) Hopefully I will make some progress this weekend (that and puttin brakes on the Panzer Tank).
IanStott
I am so looking forward to this, will be driving down with my sister who is also a car nut. Staying at my brother's in New Jersey, driving to Hershey Sat. morning. Will good directions be posted on our website closer to the date? I would very much like to chat with owners who have restores or are in the middle of restoring their car, I'm having a good time doing mine but feel far away and by myself as most people here are doing camaro's and mustangs if you know what I mean. Looking forward to buying a few things as well.

Not many 914's, but some. I love to see them. Some are in such bad shape it makes me feel like mine is of the showroom floor! lol2.gif
Dr Evil
I made some serious progress on my car today so I may be making it with my car, Dan. I would like to be one of the 10+ in the lot.
wilchek
Good to hear the car is almost on the pavement. It is about that time in the east to bring the cars out of hibernation. Let me know if you need a hand. I am sure we could knock out any problems and get it on the road over a weekend of work.

PS: keep sending me you name for out coral at the meet. I need to send at least 10 names to get a spot reserved
Dr Evil
Mosty of what is needed now is wiring for all of my new widgets and doodads that I have put in with the new engine. I reinstalled the oil cooler, interior sound deadening, exhaust, seatbelts (almost, need to find a bolt), and some other things today. Tomarrow (Sat), I am gonna build a work bench, finish up the major wiring, assemble the door glass....and other things.

I am off for the week for spring break. Gonna geter done smilie_pokal.gif

Put oil in it today and it has not leaked....yet wink.gif

Ya can PM me if you got time to kill and want to stop by. Your always welcome.

that would be spring carlisle but spring carlisle is an antique auto as in model T's, A's more antique than 914's. if you're interested in carlisle and our cars, check out import/kit car carlisle in may. they have a web site. import carlisle has lots of british, swedish, kit cars.
djm914-6
I'll be there with BCinSC. We'll have a table somewhere. I can't bring the 914 even though a very kind member offered to help me fix it. I just don't have the time to fix the and get enough product together to sell.

Please stop by and say Hi.

I'm going to try to make this one.
Leaking FI, but should be an easy fix.
Put me in for the 914 parking.

Anyone interested in getting a few car together for the ride down???
Jersey could be a meeting place for all from the north and LI.

I'll be there on Saturday with a few things to sell or give away. I need more room for the stuff I need to buy there!

Man I have been enjoying my vacation. I have been doing about 8 hrs a day on my car and am very close to drivable....I just need to stop being a puss and turn the damn key dry.gif (turned key= moving parts= possibility for damage= more $$$ and time than I will have in the next 10 years sad.gif ) Gotta think positive thoughts, gotta go to corral!

Wish me luck
yarin
I'll be there looking for one or two race seats. I'd like a set of Corbeau Forzas with 914 mounting rails. Anyone selling something similar. I've got a Kirkey race seat in there now i'd like to sell. Anyone interested?
Kerrys914
Are you driving to the event? I wouldn't mind checking the seat out dry.gif

Cheers

I won't be driving the 914, in a month i hope to complete the MS install and have it partially tuned.

But I can take pics of the seat, take measurements and if you are interested I can bring it to Hershey.

And no Porsches except for NARPs!

At least, that's the way it looks to me... last year there were 5 914's, 2 Boxsters, and a few 944's. Oh, and one blue 1970 911 with a 2.4 MFI engine.

I have to wonder what else was going on that Porsche people would have gone to... perhaps there was an event that day at VIR or Summit Point last year.
