Starting to make a new pile of parts to bring out.
Just found a NOS VW ignition switch for beetle 1954 - 1967 with keys. Still in a Speedway VW bag.

The ign switches are 54-57 then 58-59, 60 only 61-66 and 67 only. I'm interested if it's a early one... Pm pic and price.

Lol @ Dave. I'm coming down for this. I need some parts.
-
I'd like to come check this out!

Anybody have experience at the border bringing a load of parts either way? I'd love to come up to do the swap meet, but I get a little nervous when it comes to the border.

f-you too kev! i'll be selling a load of parts and looking forward to getting caught up with all y'all!
;D :cool:

Alright guys and gals... The swap is getting closer. Time to help spread the word and make this a big one.
I'll be filling the van with parts to bring out, who else is coming to sell/swap?
We may pre reserve spots if we have lots of intrest.

We've brought parts down to Vintage Meet several years. All depends on who you get but in the more recent years they've sent us in. Told us that's "direct sales" and that we're taking a job away from a US citizen. After a 20 minute lecture they make us pay a $10 user fee and let us across with all our parts. We've always priced things to sell and haven't had to come back across with much.
-

We may pre reserve spots if we have lots of intrest.
i'll be coming out to swap/sell. let me know if i have to pre-reserve! :cool:
-
No need to pre reserve, we would like everyone to pull in, unload their parts then park outside giving everyone enough room to swap. If your bringing a trailer full of stuff we will find a good spot outside close to the main doors.
Please spread the word! just one week to go!
-
As much as I'd like to meet a bunch of you and hang out for the day, I'm not going to make it up next weekend. I just got home after more than a week away. No time to get organized for this. If anybody needs Ghia parts, look me up. Maybe I'll see you at the Spring Meet in Bellevue in April.
-
I'll be there. Ive got lots of VDO gauges and baywindow stuff.
This time I won't follow the directions on my phone to the middle of nowhere - show up an hour late - and fail to get a swap spot.
-
We've also had folks, who aren't in our "usual" crowd, answer the Craigslist Ad about getting some swap space.
So, lots of the usual folks and some new blood. Everyone knows who to beat for first-viewing deals!
-Dave
-
looking forward to a cup of famous Timmy Ho's java ;)
-
I've been getting a fair amount of emails on the swap, this could be a good one!
Hope to see lot's of ASF members and VW friends out this sunday.
I'm also looking for some Porsche Fuchs 4 1/2, 5 1/2, deep 6's etc....
I'll bring out a couple Engine cases with fresh line bore, a FI case and a Universal T3 case.
Keep posting your wanted items!
-
I'm all ready!

Me n geoff r on our way!

Thanks to all those who came out this past Sunday. Although the number of swap spaces was down from the past event with not much Porsche guys swapping it was still a good event. Great to see everyone again and thanks!

I just pm'd Chris about the bracelet. It was given to my twin nieces at yesterday's swap. Mystery has been solved.

Again, I'm sorry I had to miss out.
Who has the steel 4-lug "sport" wheels for sale I see in the pictures above? I know a guy here in Bellingham looking for a set.

Good event! Some good buys! Great day for the drive too!

Pretty sure those were 4.5" wide ones, not the 5.5" sport wheels. Otherwise they would have gone home with me...

Thanks for putting that on! good to come over and see everyone.

Not sure how much, thanks Shawn
