It's that time again where we are ready to host one of the largest Volvo enthusiast events in the country. This year we have something extremely special to celebrate. This is IPD's 60th anniversary! We will also be celebrating IPD's 40th Garage Sale event! IPD’s Garage Sale is known for having some of the most unique Volvos on display. IPD has created one of the best Volvo cars shows in the country! During the event IPD will be offering some of the largest discounts on all items! We look forward to seeing everyone.
Our annual Garage Sale has become such a fixture in the Volvo community that we have people asking about it months in advance. We’ve heard this event described as one of the largest Volvo gathering on the West Coast and it’s hard to argue. It’s massive and we look forward to this event each and every year.
As usual, we have some great events planned this year so mark your calendar for Saturday May 20th 2023 and join us and other Volvo enthusiasts for prizes, car show, raffle drawings, ipd Plinko, swap meet deals, Show'n Shine and sales event. We guarantee that you will see some awe inspiring cars, meet some like minded Volvo lovers and have a great time.
When: Saturday May 20th, 2023 - 9:00am to 3:00pm
Where: 11744 NE Ainsworth Cir. Portland, Oregon 97220
Car Show Main Lot and Show N' Shine
Main Lot- The main lot car entries range from custom builds to low-mile, well-maintained beauties for everyone to appreciate. We do our best to showcase many different models in the main lot. If your car does not make it into the main lot, we invite everyone to come join us and display their Volvo in the Show N’ Shine area. This is an extremely popular area for enthusiasts to hang out. The Show N' Shine is first come first park so be early if you plan to attend. We look forward to seeing you here. If you would like to submit your car for the main lot please email Chris@ipdusa.com Thank you
Show N' Shine Parking: CALLING ALL VOLVOS! If your car is not featured in the main parking lot, that doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to be seen! Cars in the Show N' Shine will be across the street from IPD in the parking lot of MESD. For a $5.00 donation you can park your Volvo along with other enthusiasts, making it easy for everyone to browse their favorite models. Cars parked in the Show N' Shine area are on a first come first served basis! You can enter the Show N' Shine area beginning at 8:00am.
Swap Meet
Swap Meet: If you have parts laying around that you don't need anymore, reserve a swap meet spot and sell them during the event. Each spot is $30 and includes two standard parking spaces in the swap meet area lot next to the Show N' Shine. To reserve a spot in the swap meet portion of the event call 800-444-6473. All Swap Meet attendees are responsible for cleaning up and removing all items. IPD gets the pleasure of using MESD's parking lot for the event. Please be respectful and clean your area of all items before you leave. Thank you
