galway show swappers

[411 guy]

would members be interested in the traders posting a few pages of what parts they brought to galway in this thread ?
from talking with some of the others on the day there wasnt as much sold as was expected. we know bug/bus drivers out there need/want the parts ? or do they ? humphry from fermoy had a great range of parts also dirty1 brought lodsa goodies...tom lally had a selection second to none.

also i must say that the day was very well organised and enjoyed by myself and everyone i spoke to on the day, WELL DONE to all involved...

guys can i recommend something, could ye put prices too, people might be tempted by good deals

Sorry to hijack thread....picked that decklid up tonight Trev. Great nick, that's super, cheers

 

[JustinOval]

Trev, put my name on the bay Km/h clock - it is from an early bay, yeah?

 

[trev]

Justin, the grey faced clocks should be correct up to august '74 AFAIK, mine had grey faced MPH clocks when I got the van but when I picked up a black faced ticking clock I swapped to black faced KPH clocks to match the third clock and to match our new road signs and speed limits here...

I'd be interested in swapping for your carb flow meter or one of the US number plate surrounds, whichever you think matches the price of the gauge cluster closest...

I only have the Disney surround left if you want it, or the air flow meter.

It's just the speedo I need, do you have the full set? A grey clock clock is worth a bit on ebay, or early bay.

 

[trev]

no, just the speedo and multi-gauge, the normal pair. You might as well take the pair, easier than splitting them...

I'll pass on the Disney surround, bad memories. Don't ask...

do you need a few quid your way for the flow meter?

 

[JustinOval]

Nope, don't be daft.

 

[trev]

grand, want the gauges posted? If so, remind me of your address by PM

 

[JustinOval]

I'll be in Stradbally next weekend.

 

[trev]

grand, you and the rest of the country then? ;D

I'm only 3 miles out the Carlow road, sure drop out to me...
