I have been collecting parts for vws from 1955 to 1979 for the past 25 years and will probably have the part you need.Dont miss out on getting that rare part at an unbelievable price. Bring your VW to the swap and get a special discount for driving a VW to the event ITS Going to be HUGE.

This is going to be another great. "Okanagan boys" swap meet. Last years was amazing. This year at Al's will be even better. Liking forward to it. I will be bringing lots of stuff out.

There will be no hotdogs available so you can spend your money on parts. If you want a hotdog then go to Costco. I heard Gordo will have special licence plate frames for sale.

We won't have the hot dogs but we will still have some of the area covered. Also to add Al's collection alone for the meet is more extensive than 90% of the swap meets I've seen in the past twenty years. Any one that passes on this years meet is missing out big time. Come on VW's this is a must attend meet bring your junk or buy ours either way works for us.

I know what you mean Dave. I would have to make several trips with my single cab to bring all the stuff I have for sale.

This Swap is going to be one not to miss.

Does anyone know what happened to the IRS ZF with burned out discs that was floating around the Kelowna/Winfield area about 15 years ago?  At one time I heard Ross in Winfield had it.
Who's got it now?

Is that 9am to set up shop or be there a few minutes early to get laid out?
I have a few boxes of early bay stuff and a mix of bug things. A rebuilt 1641 with about 2000km from the rebuild. Few other bits and pieces as well.

Looking forward to my first Okanagan meet up!

If you don't need it perfectly level then YES. It is not bad. When I stagger from the shop to the house I only stagger a couple of steps to the left.

I have a full set of 59 beetle windows minus the front windshield that I will bring up if someone needs them  let me know here or I will leave them behind.   I really hate transporting glass for no reason.  Also a ghia rear window for free to some one
