Parts needed since Brian says this is a partial swap meet.

Very nice condition/mint OG paint blue-white passenger mirror arm and clamp.
Very nice condition/mint OG paint sealing wax red passenger mirror arm and clamp.

I know pipe dream but you never know!!

Thanks in advance.

[quote="VW GARDEN"]37)Type III Steve, bicycle & trailer - Stockton (OVP) back on the list!!!

Type 3 Steve is riding his bicycle from Stocton all the way to Samual P Taylor Park pulling a small trailer and he left today at about 3pm. Roscoe: What's the latest on his current location? I expect he's camped out somewhere by now. Word?

POST IF YOU NEED SOMETHING! Someone amongst the crew probably has it! BRING SOME CRAP TO SELL!

On the subject of drivers needing parts, Double Cab Brian from Novato -the glass cutter- NEEDS A COMPLETE HORN BUTTON ASSEMBLY. If you have one, please bring it along, he'll cut some kind of deal with you.

Hippie Tim: Please bring the "Compressor Engine" with you... what am I saying... Hippie Tim doesn't even have a computer!

Britt: I'll have the gas tanks for you.

Anyone with a theoretically rebuildable 15-1600 case, shortblock, longblock, complete mystery motor or pounds of engine internals and just want it gone... please bring it... I'm currently immersed in "Musical Engines". The Beetle I just got has a #4-Head-Stud-To-Oil-Sender-Crack and is terminal. Also looking for 36 horse cores, split case transaxles, small nut reduction box parts, decrepit used-up skank type two brake parts, any and all 15' beetle tires that hold air, and if anyone out there has a "Stretch Monster"... I'd actually be very interested in buying it... one of my favorite childhood toys long, long, gone. "Don't mess with Stretch Monster... he'll rip your face off" :lol:

For those tripping off forty horse engines, I've now got at least 4 complete mystery short and long blocks if you're in need of some of that crack. Additionally, I've got one (1) post 73 fuel injection AS 21? case with the blanked fuel pump hole. This is supposedly a super rebuildable case per Soren Anderson as of today -he just looked at it. If you have a need for this unique kind of case for hi-perf needs, I'm sure you may have something (engine-wise) you might wish to trade? Let me know.

Super bogus dude! Can't you just ... well, scratch that idea... Anyway, way bummer.

Whaddayasay we can look forward to tipping a few with you guys at Red Barn? That's not so long from now, I think we could handle that? Yeah?
Your inspiration has effected this "Campout Engine Rebuild", and as you know, my first. Thank you, you'll be missed.

Mr. Armstrong, is there any truth to the rumor that super-low-key, under-the-radar Mark Waterman from Eureka may take your place this weekend?

Does anyone know how to get in touch with Deafvolks Darrel and crew? It would be really great to see him this weekend too. I'll see if I can PM him.

Don't think I do, but I'll check. I know I've got a clamp, and an arm, but I think it's L87. I'll see.

Hey, if any of you happen to have the handle / latch thing that goes on the closet under the bed in a SO42, ours is broken in Lullebelle, and we are in search of a replacement. It looks just like the regular closet one.

On another note: just a little longer until we leave... shower, breakfast, and grocery run. We arrive today, with Kevin, to hopefully secure some awesome site for all of you. Til then my friends... :wink:

Also looking to buy lightweight commercially built VW Engine Stand -both bench-top AND floor model with wheels. If you have an extra of either of these, please call me and confirm that I've not already found one, thanks.

Who else is looking for something?

Do you need the black handle, the catch or the pushbutton switch part?
