Hoping to make it. Looking for a '67 or earlier steering column, a working thermostat, bracket and connecting rod for a 1600cc engine. |
Mike, if you see an older black dodge pick up with red wheels in the swap section stop by. I have a couple thermostats and brackets I can bring and a locking steering colum from a 66 bug I think if intrested. Its the colum, colum tube, and colum lock but the lock needs some work/parts. I'll dig around for a thermostat connecting rod as well. _________________ Hoockd on fonicks werkt for mee?

Really looking forward to the show, lots of chatter about the swap so expect a good one. Bring yer shopping list. If anyone is looking for a set of polished, thin lipped, early Riviera's, I got a set off my '69 I'm looking to sell. $400 obo with near new tires [145's and 185's]. Here's what they looked like on my '69.
Let me know if you are interested and I'll bring them down.

Forgot to mention to those wanting their speedos repaired that you can drop them off to me at the show. Just do me a favor and put it in a box with your name, email and complete shipping info, thanks _________________ Hoockd on fonicks werkt for mee?

It's showtime! Weatherman say's it's gonna be sunny, mid 60's and zero chance of rain. Great for a fall show, a perfect way to wrap up the 2013 season. See ya all there!

Great time as always and a great swap as usual
It was great to catch up with everyone one last time before winter.
Didn't get to see any drag race action but it sounded like some of those guys were tearing it up over there...
Thanks again to everyone who's involved with making this show happen. _________________ Drive your VW... That's what it was made for.

Turnout seemed a little lower than other years? I had to leave early so maybe it got busier as the day went on. Got some good deals in the swaps though.
Anyone know who owns this cool double cab?

I have to say I thought the attendance was low but quite surprised how well we did in the swap area. Nice to finally have a great day at E-Town and thanks to all that stopped by and made a purchase. _________________ Hoockd on fonicks werkt for mee?

The Afrika Korps double cab was cool...but who was rollin that 56 or 57 CB/SWR 23 window slammed on smoothies that I *think* showed up a little later ?
I don't have any pics as usual, but that thing was off the hook. _________________ Drive your VW... That's what it was made for.

I believe it belongs to the owner of Burlington VW. Probably sitting in their showroom now. _________________ Hoockd on fonicks werkt for mee?
