Annual Michigan Porsche Swap Meet

It's almost time for the spring swap meet!
APRIL 11 2015 9AM TO 1PM

FREE LUNCH PROVIDED BY SUBURBAN PORSCHE

37911 GRAND RIVER AVE
FARMINGTON MI 48335

I plan on going and would be glad to meet up with other Pelicans to drive together. I would be coming from the Flint area south to I96.

The swap meet is in indoors so it is rather small. What's there depends on who shows up. I bought my Bentley manual one year but haven't bought anything else.

It's more of a meeting place to join up with other Porsche folk. You don't need to be a PCA member to stop by.

I am ticked that I will be on vacation, returning that evening, otherwise I would be there. It is small (I went a couple of years ago), but there was a good selection of posters, books, and other collectables. Not as many parts as I had hoped to see, but they had vintage back to 356, 914, etc. The weather that year was crap, but lots of folks drove their cars out anyhow, so that was fun, too.

I bought a Duck Tail there last year. Something to do for us northern folk who are aching to get the car out of the garage. Speaking of which, I wont be seeing you this year. We are leaving the frozen north and moving to Florida in a couple of weeks.

Were you waiting to hear from me?

I'll be there! I'd love to drive in together with other Pelicans, even if it could be out of the way for me. Just got my 944 out for the first time this year today and can't stop driving!

Would you have a general meeting spot in mind?

ChemMan is who I was talking about but he's not sure on his plans yet.

i won't be able to make it this year. i'll be house and dog sitting for my family who are out of town on vacation. unfortunately the dogs are older and need to go out frequently, so there is no way i could leave them alone for 8 hours in a row.

Hey all.

Bumping this up 1 last time.

My daughter and I will be there but not 100% on what time. I'll have on my black Pelican shirt and my PCA club badge so please speak up and introduce yourself. We got caught in a rainstorm tonight with the car tonight so it will NOT be sparkly clean cause I am not getting up extra early to wash it again.

Except for meeting up with old friends, it didn't seem to be as well organized as years past.

We didn't arrive until about 11am. Did see an awesome RSR replica but forgot to talk to the owner and get more info. We forgot our camera too so no pics from me.

I did meet KarlW911 and his dad as we went to his house to see the 74 911 he has been trying to get sorted. Karl,his dad and his mom are very nice and I'm glad we took the time to meet them today.
