Is anybody thinking on going to this show? It's in a cool location and the winery is gonna be open for business. So far there's alot of good talk on the samba site. I would like to see some members join me on a caravan to this show. I will be joining the OCODers in route to the show, going thru rural towns avoiding highways.

I'm going. This is a great event for parts. Stock up on items you need or may need in the future. Prices at this show are the usually the lowest of any VW event.
I'll be driving my Toyoto. Anyone is welcome to come with me.

You want the entire transaxil?
How much should I Pay?
Does it have a serial number?
-
It's sad that not many SJVW members are attending this event. Even though it's at a new location this is the premair swap event.
The last time I went, Bob Mondello paid $25 for a set of obsure aluminium pistons and cyllinders. Bob recognized what they were. He sold them on the Samba for $1000.
I found a complete gas heater for $20.

Honestly, the chances of there being one there are astronomically small. If you actually see on call me and I'll talk to the seller & make arrangements

That's why i go searching for goodies, always. I might be picking up some exhaust header for my buggy!
Without people attending VW events, these shows wont be around too long. So what there's no camping.. :confused04:; Come on out and enjoy hanging out with other people who's keeping the VW scene alive.

Really wish I could come, as Katie said, it seems as if all the close ones we can't get to.

This looks like the same as above w/o the tail piece.
Here's the story; I got there 7:40 AM. (Keep in mind the spectators is not suppose to open until 8:00 AM) and saw this right away at the end of the row. I rushed over, looking at the printout of your trans. It looked close. The guy said it was from a Westy but he had just sold it and the guy was coming with his truck to pick it up. He said the guy couldn't get his $400 out fast enough. Missed it by minutes.
Is that the one you wanted? Was it the tail piece you really needed?

That is a 2wd 4spd Vanagon trans, and $400 was a good price. A Syncro trans is a 5 speed & the tailpiece is how the power is transmitted to the front wheels.
Let me give you an idea of value...
Go Westy sells rebuilt Syncro trans' for $1400. The core charge is $2500!
$400 for a Syncro trans is a steal!
Thanks so much for keeping an eye out. My Syncro almost suffered the fate of that trans you saw there. The guy I bought it from was going to part it out and take it to Volksfest last year. It would have been a crime, but he would have easily cleared $5000 for the parts.
Essentially there was nothing wrong with it...I drove it home from his house! When they're in pre-restored condition, selling them whole is always at a loss over what you can get if you part them out. After I invest about another $5k, the value will reverse, and it will always be worth MORE than my investment to sell it running
