I understand it's March 17-20. Is it worth a 500 mile jaunt from Memphis? Prices OK? Something besides Super Chevy stuff?

man its a good swap...i drive almost two hours...wouldnt drive more than that.been to a couple...have a spring and fall.just like any hit or miss..but like i said thats far for you.
Actually, March 17-20 is the pre-war swap, nothing newer than '45 and it's 95% restorers. I went last year for the first time and did pretty well. 6 hour drive for me.
If you're looking for tin and oddball accessories you'll enjoy it, just don't wear your Hot Rod shirt. I'll be there so you better get there early http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Yup, pre-war only. I like to go because there's always some dingleberry there with non prewar stuff. He's not selling anything because it'a all old resto-baters, so you can usually pick up good stuff cheap. I like to look at the A's and T's, act like I'm really interested and then tell them "Oh I'm gonna chop it and SBC in it." That's always good for a coronary. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
