Default Any Model A'ers in Santa Cruz?

Hey y'all, I live in Santa Cruz and my '30 Coupe is close to getting on the road, just checking to see if there's anyone in the neighborhood!

Ah right you've got the headlights! Looking around for some brake rods and shocks all around if you know of any. I'll be up at the Campbell swap meet this Sunday too.

There are probably some woodie owners in Santa Cruz. A few years ago I took my Model A woodie to woodies on the warf on the pier in Santa Cruz. Saw lots of woodies and had a good time.

Yup! I still have them for you.

What Campbell swap meet?

There is a guy in Los Gatos with a bunch of model a parts. He is listing them on CraigsList. He told me he has "about 50 shock bodies". Look him up. I bet he has the parts you seek.

Ted, there is a swap meet this Sunday at All Ford, as well as the store being open and from what I hear having 10% off of stock.

Yes Ray, back on the West coast hopefully for good! I'll get in touch next time I come to Portland, maybe it'll be by Model A!

Thanks, I will look up the Santa Clara group.

I'll show up at the meet as well! If you guys want PM me and I'll give you my contact info. I can bring those headlights for you, backroads.

I'm looking for some firestones. Maybe they'll have 'em in stock!
