Spring FestivaL 2011

On that note I will have a few items for sale/trade as well. Power mirrors including switch, $75, orange tach cluster $60 (or $50 if you also have a non-tach cluster to trade). Also have a good condition set of LX seats with the removable headrests and the split rear bench, they are up for trade only for decent condition regular seats (all cloth, no vinyl) plus $75 cash. So basically if you have the regular (non-lx) cloth seats in your car, drive it to the meet, give me $75, and we'll swap your seats for mine (price includes me doing the labor lol). Also have a very nice aqua hood and grill (off a '92) that I'll bring if someone says they want it, but I don't feel like dragging it along for the ride if there's no interest since the meet will be the start of our summer vacation. All prices are probably negotiable lol.

I want to mention that all bartering needs to be done at Bebandit's house. Clemson will not allow us to do that kind of stuff in their parking lots. Anyone who will be working on a car needs to do that at Bebandit's house as well. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. That being said, I have OE parts to sell (knuckles. & hubs w/o spacers, sway bar, entire rear beam) for anyone interested in those. Thanks.

Also forgot to mention that if anyone needs a charge on their AC (R134a only) I can bring my tank and gauges. I don't have any R12 stuff (the factory Festiva charge) but if yours has already been converted to R134a I can top if off ya! This will have to be done at Jerry's as well, I doubt the folks would want us doing that in the parking lot

I too will be bringing a few extra goodies to sell or trade for other goodies.

(1) super nice radio bezel with all the clips and holes in tact ($1 million or best offer)
Complete Hatch latch assembly $20 (very nice condition)
(1) orange dimmer switch $10 (very nice condition)
(1) white dimmer switch $10 (very nice condition)
(1) tan escort/tracer dome light $5
(2) cargo light's $5 ea.
(1) orange rear wiper switch $5 (very nice condition)
various MAZDA badges - make offers
(2) antenna delete plates $5 ea.
Set of ricer pedal covers with a dragon (couple screws missin') make an offer
some KIA badges - make offers

and I may throw a few more goodies in if I have time. Also if you are coming and can think of anything else not real big just PM me tonight.

shouldnt we check in first(koa) & unload our cars?

Call the KOA at (864) 287-3161 before you leave to inquire as to an early check-in. Check-in times are set to give the previous guests time to leave, so if vacancy is not an issue, you can check-in early. Check-out, however, remains the same.
There have been some questions about dinner and such on the evening of the 9th. There are a multitude of restaurants, so we'll talk about that when we all meet up. Also, who's up for breakfast the morning after?

[DriverOne]

Apparently, we are! Bebandit took some videos, which I'm sure he'll post soon, and the campground's not bad.

The KOA is SOUTH of I85 (Turn right coming from ATL, left coming from Greenville) with a sign on the left side of the road.

***The campground entrance is on the right, immediately after the entrance to the road. This is important, otherwise you'll end up in a subdivision at the lake.

Coming FROM the campground to the meet, exit the campground and go up Wham Rd. a few feet back to 187. Turn right, and take 187 (across the I-85 bridge) to where 187 ends at US 76 a few miles up the road. Turn left at US 76, and follow it into Clemson. At the 123 intersection (Ace Hardware) turn left and go to the second light. You will see Cook Out on your right, but don't go into the driveway, as there is no access to the larger parking lot in the rear. Turn right at the light and go to the back. The entire trip is 13 miles long and takes approximately 20 minutes.

For those who want them, here are the KOA-provided maps.

Nothing against you DriverOne, I'm happy you put this together, but wondering if we might have been better off to tell Clemson to kiss our collective butts and have the meet at the KOA.
Bet they wouldn't mind some bartering/trading/buying/selling. Especially since a lot of us will be staying there anyway.

Check out the videos and maps of the KOA. It's a tiny place. I also don't want to disrespect them by asking to do that there. The last time Smedley allowed teardowns and repairs, some cars became largely disassembled. Clemson was a good place to go for a meet, so I thought we'd go there. It wasn't until recently that the guys started chompin' at the bit for a barter. Next year, we may actually have the meet at the KOA for convenience's sake, but I want to get feedback from those staying this year before we consider a return. This is only the second meet in this area. We don't have our wings just yet.

We can largely tear cars apart at my meet, the neighbors won't even notice. They are so used to seeing mine that nothing will surprise them.

They just have to be done by 7 or 8pm to keep the locals happy.
