    Monroe Swap Meet - May 13, 14, 15

    This thread it for keeping in touch regarding the Monroe Swap Meet. If anyone is planning to attend this in participation with the club, or are planning to deliver parts there or to my house the week before the meet, you can post your intentions or questions here.

    Brief details are:

    • Friday is setup day. I will use the "club hauler" to transport as much as it will hold. A volunteer or two is appreciated to help on this Friday. I'll be taking the day off, so others of you who are retired or can also take a day off work, please let me know.

    • Driving onto the fair grounds requires a pass, which we have one of. If you can't deliver your items to me before, you will be able to contact me to meet you on the road on Friday or early Saturday to drive in.

    • Items sold should be marked with a price, if possible, and initialed with your initials -- so money can be apportioned correctly. The club will withhold a small percentage (to be determined) to offset expenses and to add funds to the treasury for our future Regional attempt.

    • Being a club event means we need members to manage the booth both days. Please indicate what day you can attend and for how long.

    Thanks!

    I'll probably be carpooling with Jeff and we usually do a Saturday trip. I don't have anything big to sell but I'll bring a box or two.

    And I'll make 5 or 6 of the hubcap clocks like the one from the raffle we had tonight. All the proceeds will go to the club. Just need to decide on a price.

    Roger, do you think any of the left over parts I have would do any good at the meet? If so I would be willing to donate them to the club to sell. The club could keep any moneys made from them. Just not sure if any of it is worth hauling. I would get them to you some how. Steve

    Steve,

    I'm not 100% sure what spare parts you have. I don't think anyone would want what's left of the wagon at this point.

    What do you have left over?

    I saved all the trim from the inside of the wagon?? Couple of old single barrel carbs. Two 7" rear axles. assorted transmissions. Not sure if any of it is worth hauling and or selling off, but thought I would ask.
    Also I have about 8-10 wheels that are all 4 lug, just the stock steel type. Otherwise it is off to become BMW parts (haha)..

    And you have all those 61 wagon fenders and hood, etc. Those would be worth bringing out. The tranny's for sure. These always go. Wheels, maybe. You just never know.

    Sound to me like you need to close the shop for 3 days and come out to the east side and join the party!

    I have been thinking about it. I will inventory stuff tonight and get a list to you. Then see what I can do about getting over or just bringing it and helping out. Thanks

    If you still need help with the booth, let me know. I plan on coming up and searching for some parts so I could put some time in at the booth to help out. Either day is fine with me.

    Was going through parts last night. How much stuff would you guys like me to bring?? I have both fenders and a hood from a 61, 2 stock rear axles, 4 assorted transmissions, and a bunch of small stuff. I don't care if I see a dime from any of this stuff. I would rather it go to the clubs account. The club helps with so much stuff I think it would be a good way to give back.
    Let me know and I will load it up and bring it to Roger Saturday morning before tech day. Thanks Steve...

    I had to give away the rear axle I brought last year - those are hard to give away even (though I just did a couple weeks ago). The fenders and hood - and even some of the fenders you didn't think were worth keeping - maybe. Tranny's are always good to bring. Bring it on!

    How is the planning going. Kenny and I (maybe Pat as well) will be there early Saturday morning... What time do you need us to help set up?

    Anyone volunteered to help out on Sunday? If not we can break it down Saturday. I can't help Sunday.

    I have a few items and will also bring Brian's boxes on Saturday.

    Don't forget the Falcon Club display cards.

    Will gene lend the sun tarp again? Tables?

    I will lend the awning thing again. I also have a folding 3'x6' folding table if needed. I just confirmed with my social director: I can come to the swap meet on Sunday 15th and stay to help teardown and load up leftovers. What time is that Roger?

    I don't know if anyone is coming to help me on Friday. I seem to remember someone saying they would - but I'm drawing a blank (wonder why?). I am taking Thursday and Friday off so I am not stressing over this and can maybe dig out some stuff I wouldn't normally bring.

    So I'm going there on Friday - leaving my place around 1 or 2PM and will off-load it in our spot. If I'm alone, I will do the best I can to organize it. If someone shows up, then more can happen.

    Saturday, I'll be there all day, but I will want to have a look around some when you guys show up, and then we can trade off.

    Sunday, the place starts to tear down around about 2 PM.

    Gene - yes, we'd like to borrow your Seahawks tent again and any table you have. I have a 6' long table. And plenty of tarps.

    So that's the scoop thus far. I'll post more later.

    I may be able to help on Friday. Won't know for sure until later in the week. Going fishing early in the week, and should be back. Saturday is prob'ly out for me. I can bring a few tarps, too. I also have a coupla saw horses, but nothing for a top.
