Vintage German Swap Meet

About the Vintage German Swap Meet

The Vintage German Swap Meet grew to life from a conversation that I was involved in at a local Porsche event. Myself and a handful of longtime 356 enthusiasts were discussing the fact that the online auctions were pulling the vendors away from the traditional swap meet and that most of the vendors had nothing to do with the 356 models. But as the online auctions progressed, many negative stories were surfacing. If you were selling, you had the advantage. But, if you were purchasing, you were often at a disadvantage.

The one advantage that I find most important is having the item in front of you and the seller is face to face with the buyer.

The Vintage German Swap Meet is held every year in September at Ski Roundtop near Lewisberry, Pa. The swap meet is for both Porsche and Volkswagen air cooled automobiles. We are STRICTLY VINTAGE, STRICTLY AIR COOLED.

The facility at Ski Roundtop offers clean restrooms, blacktop parking and a quiet country setting. There will be light fare offered by a local catering company. Please note that we do not allow the public sale of food by vendors.

The event is for vintage Porsche and Volkswagen only. The cut off years are mid to late 70s. Vendors may bring anything directly related to these vehicles from literature to whole cars and anything in between. This event has a reputation of bringing out some very interesting items. The event starts at 8 a.m. and will run until 4 p.m.

Please understand that there is much to do the week leading up to the event. We encourage you to call with any questions and concerns before the last week before the event.

Your contact person is Mike Moody at 717-502-8820. Please, no calls after 9:00 p.m. You may also email 61roadster@gmail.com.
