DFW area swap meet

This Saturday, March1, is a Maverick PCA region swap meet in the DFW, TX area.

I'm planning to go - wondering if a Pelican meet might be possible if anyone is interested.

Info at http://www.***********/events.html

Since we are looking to have a decent turnout (I know of 4 others plus the 911 board people not listed here), how about a Pelican meet at a restaurant after looking around at parts?

EDIT: see details below for place and time.

Give me your suggestions and I will finallize a plan.

Finally, are you at home due to the ice storm? I'm practicing my living room driving skills today:

Oh it ain't that bad, I'm at work in Dallas. I'm going to the swap meet, if my son's soccer game doesn't interfere. It might be kinda' cool to have a get together.

Good Idea. I think i'll load up Need for Speed and go.

IHOP is ok with me, breakfast or lunch 24hrs a day.

From my experiences at swap meets here in CA, I would suggest 11:30 or later as a "get together" time. At least, if you want anyone who is selling stuff to show up...

Count my son and I in.

Our vote would be for 11:30 or noon for lunch, unless there is just nothing to see.

Is that a ... (heaven forbid) ... Jag wheel in your hands? If so your punishment is 30 laps around the dining room table!



Best,
Barry

Ok, lets make it 11:30 for lunch and give me more ideas for a place - I will do a little more research on that as well.

More updates will follow.

Barry - yep, it's the Jag wheel - 30 laps it is.

I guess I need to do 30 laps around the kitchen, too, since that is a wooden mixing spoon for a shifter!

Ok, lets make it 11:30 for lunch at Spring Creek BBQ which is just west of Zim's on 183. I am including a map here but I don't know how readable it will be.

If you need more info post here or e-mail me.

The addresses are:

Swap Meet:
Zim's Autotechnik
1804 Reliance Pkwy
Bedford, TX 76021

Spring Creek BBQ:
1509 Airport Fwy
Bedford, TX 76201

Both locations can be seen from Airport Freeway (183).

You have my picture above and I will be wearing an "Embry-Riddle" ball hat if you want to talk to me at the swap.
