What about a mini swap meet?
Bring something you have collected or something Crossfire related that you may want to sell.
Maybe do it late Saturday afternoon.
Just a thought. Thank you for all of your work. Tim

+1, Very popular with car club events that I attend. The Volvo folks for example always make space available for a flea market, vendors, selling from the trunk, whatever, in the spirit of obtaining parts etc.
Admittedly, the internet has made a huge dent into this activity, but some still prefer the instant, cash only / trade atmosphere among friends...

We barely have enough room for the essentials in the Crossfire, let alone things to sell....
But I say go for it!

A MINI swap meet? OK, but I thought I was the only one with a MINI there!?! 
I'm tryin reeeeeeeeaaaalll hard to have the SRT-6 ready for the Dragon, but if anything goes wrong (and something always does) it will be another MINI Dragon for me.

Well, I'm not exactly west coast, but I will be heading out. Not sure which part of Cali you are in, but coming through Denver may be way out of your way.

Well, the coupe is in pieces waiting on a door skin...so, if I attend, which is a big if right now, it may be the old reliable roadster...

I was messing with a 5x3 oval decal design for this years Dragon. Then I priced them out. At 50 count they would be $3 each. Do the math. OUCH.
It would be great to get enough made for each car attending, but the cost is too much to absorb. Any help here? Or I can make enough for just the interested parties.
Let me know if your interested or any other ideas/suggestions. Time is getting near.

OK I am in...Barbara is in her last hours/days and some of her last coherent thoughts were of the Dragon and Crossfire Club. I know I had asked earlier about doing a Memorial Run when she passed but since the run (sorry I haven't had time to be on-line) I didn'tknow has been moved up four weeks and it looks like a lot of plans have already been laid down. I may just come by myself and plan her Memorial for the spring run...Ya'll please give some input, I know she wouldn't want to bring anyone down or ruin any plans. And I am a little torn too since Oct 1st would have been our 28th anniversary...this run would be appropriate. HELP PLEASE?!
