Lawrence KS, Swap Meet

[clint b]

The annual rite of passage known as the Lawrence Swap Meet is this weekend. Any HAMBER's going?

[KCsledz]

Wish I could but I will be out of town.

[clint b]

You midwestern HAMBers are killin' me. There has got to be more people than just my friend Jason and I going to this party. I don't have much $$ left after spending a buttload on my '55 this spring, but I will be there for the good times and interesting sites. Also a great place to network with fellow young rodders.

[choprods]

where in Lawrence?

[clint b]

It's at the 4-H Fairgrounds. The first exit North off of 10 hwy. (Harper Street)

Kenny, it's easy to find. On the right just as you get into town. I always have a space on the right side as you go in against the fence. All HAMB guys are welcome to stop by, 5110 I think.

These directions are only correct if you are coming into Lawrence from the East side of town.......

On Highway 10.........

Not Interstate 70........

[robertrj]

I'll be there one of the days.

It always worth the trip.

Have the hail storms stopped yet?? Was pretty nasty out that way lastnight

[What]

Yes Hail is over, Lawrence got quite a bit of damage last night, but not near as much as the KC area. It wouldn't be the swap meet with out a mod bog pit.

[97flatrat]

Is it worth going to on Friday or do most of the vendors only show up on Saturday?

[WeedsSpeed]

Saturday Morning is the big day Friday nite is when there are good buys though.

[Buick55Century]

I'll be there, on Saturday... Looking for 390 parts for the Model A.

[Abomination]

I know a guy local (well, Ottawa) that has a COMPLETE 3x2 for a 390. Found him on Craigslist...

[sodbuster]

Drive over there this afternoon. I think that they shut down around 7pm. If you show up in the morning it is going to be a pain in the backside @ 6 am, but good luck. I will be there around 5ish & we are in space E3056.

I just came home to eat dinner and going back. Muddy but lots of people set up and will be more in an hour when i go back. Lots of good stuff there, several vendors with Model A stuff, a nifty little hot rod truck, a nice 40 Ford coupe (very pricey), a 57 Ford 4 door hardtop, a smattering of speed equiptment but haven't found the inline 6 stuff I need. Oh well, still tonight and tomorrow.

[JasonK]

I'll be there.....

[chigger]

i'll be there , gotta have something I need!

[truckncoupe]

I'm confused this thread is over one year old?When is it for 2010?

[cactus1]

This weekend is what I'm told. April 30- May 2.

And this thread is 6 years old BTW. That's ok the swapmeet is at least 38 years old!

[bwiencek]

Anyone know if they are open on Friday? Some event sites list it as Sat/Sun only and I thought they started Friday around noon-ish???

Can't make it this year though.

[RDP]

I will be there early. I don't have a lot of cash this time around but if I can pick up a couple of things cheap it's worth going.
