We are working on putting together a trip to Barnam's salvage yard on Saturday 10/26/13.
I will drive my van that holds up to 8 people, 6 'comfortably'.
Tentative plan will be to leave the Battle Creek area around 7am to get there no later than 10am. Barnam's salvage is open until 1pm. From there we will find a place to eat on the way home.
If we get over 6 (or 8) people we will need to coordinate a second vehicle. I don't mind meeting up with people along the way If that is more convenient than meeting us in Battle Creek.
Post up if you want to go.
If you are not familiar with Barnam's.... It is a traditional salvage yard with "invisible" cars. But, in the back corner there are Air Cooled VW's. We can go in and pick parts from them. Mostly later stuff but there is the random older one in there sometimes. Just fun to go see VW's in a salvage yard. If you want to know more about it just ask.

It's not going to be the same trip without coming home in a Ford Fusion with someone holding a bus door in the back seat....

Are you pulling a trailer, or strapping stuff to the roof?

No trailer. No strapping parts to the roof. No holding a bus door on my lap. 9-1 on Saturdays. It will be fun!
So, who is going?

In case you've never been to Barnam's, here's a couple photo's from last year. They don't do it justice but gives you some idea what it's like.

Bren,
How many do you have lined up? I may be able to go now, but will likely drive myself as we have plans later.
