Event Coverage On site Pics from Hershey at full speed; show us what's there; or what you found so far?

Many people around the world either have never been there, or have not been in years...

Can you spend a few seconds to share views of some of the swap meet rows, and some things you have seen or bought?

Fantastic forecast, so we know you all are really busy...but...

Things are pretty well done for today, but here's a shot from my bedroom for the night. Crowd seemed a little light today, but I did sell a few things. I'll try to remember to snap some pictures tomorrow

 

One shot.

 

Ok, I decided to jump on my bike and snap a couple more pictures for you guys.

 

A couple more...sorry for the lousy quality, its hard to take pictures while riding a bike!

 

Thanks so much for the pics... and this one: The black sedan on right, is a 32/33 Nash eight... I have a 32-six...cool pic, thanks!

 

Last few for tonite. I'm not sure why they're sideways... must be my stupid smart phone.

 

Really.... Come on.....need more pics

 

The one on the left, late 30's Austin 7?

 

ill help quench your thirst for pics, these are my spoils from hershey

 

Goddam TITUS!!!! I'm so damn jealous.

 

Wow - Thanks for pics

 

Too tired to download pics, but it was a great day. A few observations:
1.Well attended with few empty spots-there were vendors at the back of the Orange field in spots I don't remember being occupied before
2. There were also more cars in the car corral and many fewer priced under $20 than I remember (your experience may differ.)
3. There were fewer Chinese tool vendors than usual-I think vendors were influenced by the total washout that was Fall Carlisle just down the road last weekend.
4. There were significant numbers of political signs, but all from one side. (I'd just as soon leave politics out of Hershey, just like the HAMB)
5. I heard numerous foreign languages- lots of Spanish. I saw very few folks I would group as Asian and no African-Americans. That is different from recent trends.
6. It didn't rain -also different from recent trends!
7. There were some very cool engines-Fronty Fords, Rileys, a 110 cu in Offy and a new set of Ardun heads-not likely the first originals- but a deal at $30,000.00.
8.. The Jag XKE is growing on me, even if it's OT
9. I don't care if it suits AACA, 80's American cars just don't fit my idea of antique or classic cars.
10. Parking is up to $15 but it's still free admission to the best damn car meet in the world.

 

if you go to the Pate swap meet site - go for the year 2015 - they sent a drone over us.....think I'm at the 2 minutes and 15 seconds.....silly plug there....

 

Seriously good stuff. Well done.

 

I'm with Pete Titus and am extremely jealous of your haul of goodies. Thanks for all the pics D_Dave although my neck is still kinked and thanks to 5window for your observations. All makes me wish I was there but I'm positive that Titus must have some type of part finding radar to get all those goodies.

 

sorry guys, no radar here just lots of fast walking and lazer eye sight! and to the fact i sold a car a week ago so i actuslly had some folding money and my ocd so i dont walk away from much!

Last year was my first hershey the trip, it was a great time, i akso vowed id be back and i made it happen! gonna try again next year!

 

Decent pair of 32 tudor rear fenders, nice original but bad chromed 32 bumpers, a nice model B fuel pump (for 90, nice price). Passed up a complete winfield sr for $375 only because I was low on funds and already have an S

I just got home. So much cool stuff to see. Here are a few photos of things, I found interesting.

 

Those trains are so rad!

 

@Moriarity do you see the chromed out snow blower and tiller? They would go nice with your mower.......Lol

 

First thing I thought of to when I saw those.

 

thanks for posting guys.....cool there wasn't any rain !

 

Thee snow blower was an ingenious advertisement piece for a plating and coatings company.

 

I'm headed there soon, thankful for a nice day after Fall Carlisle was basically rained out. I will try to get some pics for y'all.

 

Had one guy looking at our stuff but did not buy anything. Gene Winfield, how cool is that ?
