RodFru2u Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Hey All So Cal Dodge/Chrysler owners, So Cal Mopar club is holding it's biannual car show and swap meet April 11-12 @ Woodley Park in the San Fernando Valley. I am NOT a member but I have gone to the show and swap meet. More muscle cars then classics but a nice show anyway. I have found a few parts for my truck and a few tools for a reasonable price. Sunday April 12 @ 7:00 AM is the Swap Meet. I plan on getting there early and try and find some deals. Maybe take my truck there but not for the show. If enough want to meet there or some where close, Lots of places to meet before or after for breakfast or something else. Hope to see some of the Forum members there, Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattimuss Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Several of us are driving up from San Diego. Are you showing your truck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodFru2u Posted March 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 I might bring my truck to this event and park outside. They want money better spent on junk I want then a parking spot for them. We don't take any of our cars out for judging, I know what's not right with my toys & I don't care. They run,They are safe, They look good, and they draw a crowd whenever and wherever I park them. My Truck ( Ole Bessie ) is a beater work truck with a rattle can paint job. I'm still working the bugs out of her, but this event is within my AAA limits I just go for the swap meet, then run thru the pretty car show. I never know what is out there in the pile of parts laying on the ground. Once found a Klaxon Model A horn @ a MG Swap Meet. If anybody wants to meet up there is a coffee truck near the bathrooms. Nice place to meet up ( only open city bathroom for the event ) Maybe see some of you there, Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathbound Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Hey Rod, post this on the main car forum.....there are other "event/show" threads there (and on the truck forum) so it shouldn't get moved, maybe more So Cal guys will see it.

mattimuss Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 I was just wondering if there is a way for members who want to meet each other. Maybe pick a time/place at the event to meet? For example, all members who would like to grab a cold drink and bs meet by the registration tent at noon. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodFru2u Posted April 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Hey All, There are TWO days of Swap Meets and Shows for this event ! I never checked before. I have always gone and this year will be NO different on the FIRST day ( Saturday April 11. 2015 ). I will be getting there at 6:30 AM & parking across the street ( West side of Woodley ) and going back and forth dumping my parts in the truck as i score the gems. If anybody wants to meet up there is an area near the block city bathrooms where they normally have a roach coach or some Brat BBQ, coffee and doughnuts. I'm bringing my truck just in case I find a good used rim with hubcap clips. I'll be running around all morning checking out the new sellers parts as they pull in. Anybody wants to get together tomorrow morning I'll be there, my Cell # 323 332 8326 . I should be there until 10:30 - 11:00 AM Hope to meet a few of you there, Rod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattimuss Posted April 11, 2015 Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 Hey Rod, There are a group of us driving up in the morning. I'll be walking the swap meet and show. Look for a guy wearing a tan t-shirt and tan hat with the car club Motorhead Misfits written on then. More than likely I'll be pulling a green wagon...

RodFru2u Posted April 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2015 OK Matt, I'll keep my eyes out for you, my green truck will be in the parking lot across the street. I should be real hard to pick out of a crowd, I'll wear my MG tan hat . Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodFru2u Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 They have this show/ swap meet twice a year. The spring fling is in April and the fall fling is around October/November, I'll post up a heads up around the next one. I scored a few parts for my '50 B2B last weekend. Was a GOOD swap meet for me.
