When I just spoke to you you mentioned picking up some rolls not all the rolls

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Thought I'd run a quick heads up on some of the old crap, I mean valuable 356 components I shall be bringing . . .
brake master cylinder, rear axle bearings, seals and shims, sump extension, wiper motor, exhaust tips, sunvisors, bra, reflectors, shifter and bushes, engine lid grills, wiper arms, headlight rims, speedo, tach and gas and oil gauges, brake shoes, handbrake cables, and loads more.
Really looking forward to Saturday.

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Oh no, so I'm going to be buying and not selling then. Forget the G wagon, get an old Bedford TK instead.
PS Classic Fabs say they want that rear mounts chassis piece, so that's pound notes for you, but not too many.

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Just to say a very big Thank You to Camperco and everyone involved in today's Swap Meet.
Really really good day, bought some parts, met old Husborne Crawley die-hardship and some newer friends.
Learnt 2 new facts about my 911 issues, thanks to MikeyC.
Brilliant and I do hope this can become a regular event on the calendar.
It was just like the old HC events, fabulous.
Graham.

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Golly gosh, ditto that but who ordered that weather? Rain, wind, sleet, more wind, almost four seasons in a day but we're all tough chaps so bring it on, in fact bring it all on for next year, great swap meet, can't wait.

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Thanks to the organisers, we had a great morning and got a couple of nice bits I've been looking for. Really cool to catch up with a few familiar faces too. Hope to do the same again next year?

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Duplicate post... still trying to raise a few more quid.
Real early start, but that was a great day. Thanks to Angus for offering up the Venue. Also like to thank Graham who suggested this meet and helped me out today. Total raised for the DDK charity from the sale of Mick Temple's parts was counted in hard cash as...... £3,665.00 pounds.....!
The cashier, Mrs Temple was delighted and will pay over every penny to our charity.
Several people paid slightly over the asking, thanks to you all. If you are sitting at home thinking you didn't pay enough... i know there are a few of you.! please feel free to bump up the total.
Thanks to Angus for agreeing to buy the remaining parts at the end of the day. I am sure he will bump the figure up further once he sees the bargain price he paid.
Great day. This will be a must do in the years to come.

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Fantastic event, great to see some familiar faces. Thanks again to Camperco for hosting, what a great venue. Nice to see reasonably priced delicious bbq food, compared to other events I have been to. Please can we have another one next year!

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Hats off to Angus and to everyone who set up a stall!
The range of bits on offer was incredible - from the smallest nuts and bolts upwards. The joy of rummaging was clearly felt by everyone I spoke to.

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
Thanks to Angus and team for a great day. Caught up with old friends and made some new acquaintances. Even somone who grew up as next door neighbour to my godfather up north!
Bought a lot less than I sold giving my wife some hope that there is a cure for my junkie addiction to buying old Porsche tat. I'm up for repeat next year but likley to relapse!

Re: Dreaming of a Swap Meet
A really great day regardless of weather, enjoyed the atmosphere, picked up some missing pieces for the project.
However, I must apologise for my rear end view in the last picture of the three5six blog, must have been a wide angle lens though....
