Tri-Area Show 'n Swap (LA/WEHO/SFV/SGV)
This holiday season, would youlike to give your loved onesthe gift of sought-after car parts, collectables, or even that rare model car? Perhaps you want to give yourself the gift of more space in your home by selling some of your car parts, model cars, or other car ephemera? Maybe you’d like to enjoy your fellow club members’ collections and let them bask in yours?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then you need to attend the Tri-Area (Los Angeles/WeHo, San Fernando Valley, San Gabriel Valley) Show ‘n Swap! This inaugural event will take place on Saturday, November 23, from 12:30 pm to 4:00 pm. Display and vendor space will be available both indoors and outside in the parking lot. In lieu of a fee to attend the event as a spectator, we will be collecting non-perishable food and other items for a local food bank. (Limited vendor and display space inside will be available at a nominal fee of $10.00 per table.) All are welcome. More detailed information will be included in next month’s Solenoid as well as via the e-blasts for those in the Tri-Area.
If you have any questions in the meantime, please contact one of the Tri-Area Area Coordinators: Mitch (San Gabriel Valley) at OhCarBoy@gmail.com, Steve (San Fernando Valley) at: steve.lombard@live.com or Peter (L.A./WeHo) at: queersteertv@gmail.com.
Members can bring their parts, models, brochures and other ephemera to display and sell, or just enjoy looking at what other members bring. Both experience others’ collections while also having the ability to trade or purchase items for their own cars/collections.
