Hey KED and FGL28.... nice meeting y'all this weekend ![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
See ya Next year and MAYBE it won't be raining for the Swap Meet.![Frown](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
We skipped it entirely. Actually we drove to Costa Mesa, checked into the hotel, drove by the Swap Meet location, went to dinner, Checked OUT of the hotel and drove home. We did really well at the Memorabilia meet so there was no reason for us to even chance ruining the rest of our stuff but putting it on wet concrete on Sunday.....
Did you guys find anything that you couldn't live without?

great to see you & Robert, too (I told you I had some 356 nut case friends...)! these events are a must-do every so often for any 356 enthusiast in the world - it was packed - a blast... meeting & talking w/ so many experts at the same time & place - many for the first time. and the shops - wow... the RS60 tucked away at GT Werke was a pleasant surprise to say the least, and crawling all over Willhoit's - what quality! EC's new place is Quite Impressive (& 2 300SLs to boot). variety & friendliness unmatched.
a 356 spiritual rat-race across the LA Basin for 3 days! I learned more than I bought (bought some books, of course - & for those who've never been there, gotta check out Autobooks in Burbank), it allowed me to better formulate my future projects w/ clarity & hard knowledge. I know more about who to talk w/ to find a certain piece, engage a service, observe emerging trends, get to see so many variants of the 356 (A Coupes are all the rage), esp color combos, rare options, outlaw & hot rod motors.
we got to the Swap as things were closing down at noon Sunday (rain, & it was a long way from Burbank, where I was staying w/ my bro...), but even that was fine - met w/ Steve Demosthenes (Route 30) & Russ Rodriguez (Fibersteel) who addressed some specific interests I have... of course, whole cars for sale is always fun - a wonderful 356 overload weekend!
here's a shot from Willhoit's...

Is the Porsche Barbie Boxster still in one piece? I bet Colin's models are not! LOL!

Surprisingly, Collin's models are pretty durable, and he is carrying them everywhere. He calls them his "race cars".
