You Scorp guy's have a special invitation, we can make it a meet and greet, you get to dig through all my stuff.
Bring some trading stock, or just your favorite sled to show off, I will be displaying at least a dozen sleds. We have 11 acres, and there will be an area to test ride sleds if needed.
There are really no rules at this one, just be carefull and enjoy.
These Motorville swaps always morph into a party, so definitely bring a tent.

weve...you say that we just have to be careful. What if I drool onto your sleds?...do I get booted out?
I'm thinking of going...this would be my third show in one month!
Are you selling any parts for my '80 Sting?

No, you can drool on the sleds, if you can find something worth drooling on. We have Sting stuff.
Yes, Hayfield is a pretty good shot from Wahpeton, ND.

40 sleds plus parts at my booth. If I have time I will offer some motorcycle stuff too.
I will be posting stuff on Craigs list after the swap meet. It looks like most of my runners come with a parts sled.

My brothers and I own an 11 acre property just on the edge of Hayfield,MN. We call it Motorville garage & Campground.
One of the brothers has a motorcycle shop on the property, and we tried to make the rest of it a campground, but it seams the only campers we get are when we have events like swap meets and birthday party's.
Hayfield is a small town population 1400, our property is on the west end of town on state Hwy 30, you can not miss it.
This is our first vintage swap meet, and we have no idea what the turn out will be. I will have at least 40 sleds plus a semi load of parts for sale. Of course the Scorpion stuff is hard for me to part with, but some of the parts etc. will be available. The cool thing is, when I finally decide to sell something, I let it go cheap to right guy. (I am a border line hoarder)
The swap will go from 8 am till dark, then we light the big bon fire,and camp out. There will be some food available, and there is a nice restaurant just 1 block away. Of course all are welcome to use the grills, or a campfire for cooking.
I hope a few of you guy,s show up!
Thank you

Weve was such a gracious host!
He took time out of your busy schedule to give me a tour...very much appreciated.
He has a vast collection of varied sleds, some with very cool mods.
I even bought and old rusted out vintage bicycle to use as an art piece or do a complete rust-o-ration?
A good time was had by myself and all who showed up.
Weve, thanks for selling me all of the parts for my Sting and for sharing some of your tips and tricks etc.
Rene
ps. I even got an email from Nitroking asking me to drop by his Rupp shop on my way back home...it was nice to see him again and I also enjoyed his tour and hospitality!

It was fun to meet Rene in real life, what a gentleman, and a darn smart mechanic.I just love it when you guy's pick my parts stash! I sold a couple sleds, and a bunch of parts that I will never use. Sounds like we will go again next year, same date, Friday and Saturday.
