Default Phoenix Swap Meet

I would like to know if there is a Model A related swap meet in the PHX area? I have searched the internet and the local MARC site with no success.

Thank you,
Tim

John,

Turns out Sam's place is better than the swap meet... He has it all, new and used. I was in there the other day while you where on the phone with him. He's a great guy! How's the car coming along?

WOW, that phone call is a coincidence for sure . We talk every couple of weeks or so, he is a good friend. I have just bought a property on his Dads retirement park so will be a more frequent visitor . Up to now I have stayed with an English Aer but it meant I would only go when he went or could not if he had other guests. I have not started the cabriolet yet ,that is a winter project. Took a while to get paid out from the insurance. I am still on the road with my ex AZ 60B fordor so no rush.

Hi John! Is that a RHD cabriolet you're driving in your Avatar picture? Would love to see some more pictures!

Tim - There is a Pre-War swap in Oklahoma, but I know you said you were looking for something in PHX. You could be the one to start one. Set one up at your local club meeting. The Dallas chapter has been doing swaps before the meetings for a little while now, and it's a hit!

Yes, that is my beloved 30 English RHD 68B picture taken on our annual UK Model A Ford club tour .Did 1000 mile round trip to the north of England and the Scottish borders and had a grand time,eldest son came too and split the driving and the cost of gas !!!(Good Boy) Around 700 cabriolets built at Fords Trafford Park Manchester plant only about a dozen survive ,one in the USA. After the tour sadly my car was hit by a truck when parked and fairly badly damaged ,the other drivers insurance paid out and I will do the repair this winter.
