    I think it's a good idea! Let the thieves bring stolen parts, nothing better than a central place to find all your stolen stuff and dish out some good ol' justice at the same time!

    I don't really think that too many people would be stupid enough to bring stolen parts. I know that I wouldn't, I'd be to afraid that the original owner would show up and see his parts. I'm a cop but theres nothing like good ole street justice!! lol. Most of the time thats whats needed, when a thief gets his ass whooped, he's probably not going to steal anymore. That same thief can go to jail 10 times and keep doing it, I see it everyday. I second the notion of having a swap meet, it would be a great way to not only sell your parts but to also hang out and meet new people. I would say do it once a month at the varsity on the normal 1st Thursday or on the 3rd Thursday at the Varsity. Bring on the thieves!! lol, can't wait to see a good one, imagine the look on that thieves face when someone calls them out!!

    Just bring all your parts with you to the Varsity meet every month. Saves time, gas, and the trouble of planning another meet. Maybe make a thread in the meet section every month listing what you are bringing.

    Then again.....we have a classifieds section for all of this to occur in.

    thing is, if you have parts laying out, but want to go walk around and look at other peoples parts, what's stopping someone from snatching your stuff while you're walking around. Just gotta work out the kinks, but I like the idea so far.

    i think the V is not a good place, an empty parking lot would be better i think, and yeah you will have fights cause people will see their stolen parts, and parts that they think are there's
