so...just cause i'm geographically inept when it comes to surrey...the swap spot is close to the intersection of 65a & 176a, correct?

https://maps.google.ca/maps?q=176a+at+65a+Ave+Surrey+BC&hl=en&ll=49.121186,-122.733518&spn=0.003497,0.008143&sll=49.121141,-122.85654&sspn=0.013875,0.032573&hnear=65A+Ave+%26+176A+St,+Surrey,+Greater+Vancouver+Regional+District,+British+Columbia&t=m&z=17

details...? if we're swapping should we prebook/pay or just show up? also...drive in, park, unload and swap OR drive in, unload, drive out and then walk back in and swap? just curious!

thanks to dario, sgvwa and everyone else involved in setting this up! should be alot of fun!! :) :cool:

Anyone have a sending unit for a '73 van gas tank?  Steve-o ?? Anyone??
Title: Re: Fall VW & Porsche swap meet. Nov 4th*** Post your Wanted***
Post by: pittwagen on October 26, 2012, 11:42:09 AM
Which version of the sender do you have?  It appears that 73 was a transition year.  Somewhere around 1/73 prod. date was the change from screw attachment to twist in.   If you have the later twist in style,  they can be had new for under $40 @ CIP1. Early style is about $15 more.  I wouldn't waste my time on a used one given the difficulty of removal and something that may be used, working  but 40 yrs. old.  My thoughts.

Speaking of which, does anybody know the clearance of this parkade? All of my swap stuff is loaded in my hightop bus (well over 2m). If I don't fit can I get a spot close to an entrance so I can ferry my stuff in? Thanks.

Looking for: 52mm vdo ambiance temp gauge that reads in C and/or sender (yes they exist).
Also a 52mm vdo vaccum gauge. Thanks.
