We used to go to Hershey when I was a kid as I grew up in Buffalo NY and it seems that every year we went for a swap meet it rained, and that was before there were any paved sections at all, just a field...my toes are still wrinkled.

Are you sure that isn't due to age?

Probably a little of both. We had fun though and always came away with something we needed, and something we didn't.

The Swap goes on rain, shine or snow. I believe Swap started at Ski Roundtop in the 80's before outgrowing that location and moving to Hershey. Most vendors seem to cater to "vintage" Porsches although sometimes there are "current" parts for sale. If I decide to attend I'll also keep an eye peeled for your part.

I’ll be bringing a set of brand new ecs spacers for the 991.2 narrow body 8mm and 15mm with extended lug nuts... box still sealed, etc

Looked but didn't see what you were looking for. Ended up being a nice day afterall, nice enough that all 3 of us got sunburns haha.

Sorry, Bob, to close the loop, no luck here either. Some guy had a 991 steering wheel but no airbag.

I should've worn sunscreen too!

Thanks to all for looking and glad you had a nice time and the weather turned out better than initially thought! Meanwhile, the search continues...

Didn't find any 991 Parts, besides the steering wheel mentioned above (i tried to look for myself as well). I did get a bunch of hot wheels for my collection though. *oh and a 991GT3 wing that was white.

The boys got some Hot Wheels too. That and sitting in a Turbo (really sitting in any car is a thrill for 3 year olds) were the highlights for them.
