Fall Fling XIX Oct 25th 2014 - Who's Going? and Photo Thread

Not sure if autoxcuda has started a thread here, but I know there is one on another Mopar site, so I figured I would take the plunge and ask the question, "Who's Going?"

Looks like I am going to be able to make it this year, and though I know Spring Fling is more of a draw, I am hoping to clean up the car and make the 2+ hour trek from Sandy Eggo. There should be a good showing my the San Diego Mopar Club as well. I wanted to ask, "Who else is going, and what are you bringing?", and I also figured we could make this an official photo thread.

Just looking for a little more info, as well as whose cars are going to be up there. I will keep an eye out if I know what I am looking at beforehand. See you there!

If you have any question please ask them here or email me directly at [email protected]

To avoid that "I left that part at home..." scenario from swapper, if you are coming and looking for certain parts post here. And if you are selling, please post here you are coming.

Come out the Fall Fling before going to SEMA the next Tuesday! Two for one!

Fun Field. There is no formal judging. This is a casual affair. We do informally hand out "Mopars of Merit" ribbon awards for: works in progress, Mopar spirit, cars that don’t fit into traditional classes, exceptional cars, survivors, etc. Bring your show car, project car, daily driver, whatever...

 

[autoxcuda]

Luckiest guy last Fall Fling.

His 68 Dart had a sun toasted dash, mess up lowers, hacked wiring, parts missing....

He finds this 100% complete mint dash perfect pads for $400. And get this, he had the same green interior. He was going to just drop in complete.

If you get out to events, you CREATE YOUR OWN LUCK.

Parts list, drink, sweatshirt for slightly chilly 6:30-7am morning, custom carpeted parts cart...that's the way it's done, son!

A-body 8 3/4 housing being hauled out by father and son (younger son trailing in tow)

MP intake marked at $120 asking. But that meat smoker for $20 is begging to be taken too.

 

[Inertia]

Can anyone tell me if there's a place onsite to park in an RV overnite,, - if not, can anyone recommend an RV Park close by..

thanks.. grant

No onsite RV parking inside the park itself. The park is only rented for one day.

There is one RV park SUPER CLOSE TO THE SHOW only 2.7 miles from show:
http://www.balboarvpark.com/
http://www.goodsamcamping.com/travel/campgroundsandrvparks/generalinfo.aspx?cgid=970000168
Balboa RV Park 7740 Balboa Blvd, Van Nuys, Los Angeles, CA 91406

There's another pretty close in Northridge 7.5 miles away. The others are 30 mins and over away: http://www.goodsamcamping.com/trave...tour=0&photos=0&video=0&featureddestination=0

Bringing a car or swapping?

On Friday night some RV swap people park on the wide dirt street shoulder westside of Woodley Ave just south of the park. We get some swappers showing up late Friday night and they just sleep in their cars overnight (few hours) just outside the gate to the park.

Feel free to email me at [email protected] directly if you have any questions.

 

[moparmarks]

Can just park on the street with all the other RV's and people like me.

 

[autoxcuda]

This is what I bought at last year's Fall Fling:

In the box on upper left is a NOS 68-72 idler arm that included a 50ft roll of body shop grade emblem/trim tape and a pack of sawzall blades... all for $30!

The power steering was rebuilt by Firm Feel 10K miles ago and included the Borgesen universal joint.

I'd say this was worth the trip!

What do you think??

I dont know who does it every year but i get scheduled to work that sat every f'n time. Plan to get there at about 6:30-7 if you are shopping, they dont officially start until 8 but stuff starts moving fast. I usually walk it about 10 times and i see new stuff up untill about 0900. I picked up a 426 Vertex magneto and wires for 40 bucks, too cool not to pass and i dont even own a big block!

Swappers and show cars start coming in at 7:00 am. After an initial line at 7:00am (handy parking to show car and head straight over to swap), the rate of show cars ramps up around 8:00 to 9:00am.

But if you are a swap meet hound looking for best deals get there 6:30 7:00 am.

Sorry about the date. A few years ago we were the Saturday before. Your work just has it out for you.

Steve,

That is great news. I am looking forward to that, as you know I was asking about it. PayPal'ed yesterday for 1 car...should be a good time.

Yep. I see the paypal was received at 8:34am.

Shane, do you have a wanted list of parts you are looking for in particular?

It would give a heads up to some of the swappers that see this thread.

 

[69CudaFan]

Steve,

I am not looking for particular parts per se, and I will have some stuff up there that I am going to be selling as well. I just wanted to get an idea of what people are bringing to perhaps get a list going here to give members here a head start on the early risers.

Cool

So what are the highlights of the A-body stuff you are bringing up there to sell???

Great show. I went almost every year unless I had to work. I remember the First spring fling and the first fall fling.

There's a group coming from Arizona too, but don't know what part of the state. I think Phoenix? They usually come to sell, but this time they are coming to concentrate on buying.

I got an email from someone coming from New Zealand of all places.

I sold my 64 Dodge wagon at one of the Fling's to some one from New Zealand. He bought several cars that day. Had a transporter pick them up from there.
