I know its early guy's, but I quite like the idea of a little garage/swap meet before we go on the cruise. Grab a coffee, hang out and maybe bring some tasty items from your stash.

We have tried before to get a garage sale going with no luck. maybe this time we can get it to work i have all kinds of motors and parts to clear out and would be real fun i think.

how bout we arrange it for the hang-out meet afterwards? That way we can get an early day in for the cruise, then we can run home and grab stuff and bring it, that way there isn't waiting around for the cruise to start while people drive home to drop off parts

So its been exactly one year since the last post in this thread and I don't recall this amounting to anything, I really think this could work and should be made a priority to kick off the season and inspire projects and or the completion of projects

There was a swap meet at KMS tools last year that was open to air and water cooled. Not many people from the group actually wrangled their stuff together :P

I'll see if they're doing it again this year

Yes I know because I was there........... what I'm saying is that our club didn't do it and we should be doing something like that

It was held by the Air-cooled VW guys and there didn't seem to be a point to having a competing swap meet. Joining with them on that opened a lot of doors to the air-cooled community that OKVW has been trying to connect with.

I'll keep you updated with details as they're looking to do another one this year and we can all get in on that

Not to mention we told the whole club about it with a lot of notice and nobody brought their stuff...so doesn't give me a lot of confidence that we'd have anyone show up if we had our own

KMS will not be hosting a VW show/swap anymore. Randy left and he was the one who arranged it. He works for Unifirst now.
