    I hope the swap meet is better this year than last year.

  10. It was decent from about 10:30 on. Swap meet was smaller than last year, but it had a bad weather start for sure. Car count looked off but again it was a very wet night and forenoon. I’m going back down tomorrow to kick back.

    By the way, nice to meet Gary (40ragtopdown) just outside the swap meet.

    I talked to a guy today that went Friday as a spectator an they charged him $17. to go to the swap meet and car show. Does that sound correct?

  16. Yes, I paid parking and a senior ($17) entry twice. I made a couple of good swap meet buys, spent some quality time with friends from the local area and further away that I don't see often, had great fairground burger and fries one day and thought it was a pretty good. I walked so far my hips hurt at the end of the day. Upon reflection it was a very good couple of days and I had a good attitude when I got home. From my point of view it was priceless!

    I had to buy gas, a bit of food and admissions. If you can't afford it don't go; if you think you can promote an equal offering and charge less, then have at it.

    I started doing this show back in the early 80's and the swap was one of the best in the area. There were always a lot of great street rods to look at. I did this swap last year and it was a waste of time and I had some good stuff. I guess the internet has ruined most swap meets. Most small swaps are around $20-$25 a space. NSRA charges $60. plus you have to belong to NSRA. And they wonder why they can't get many vendors.

    I had a swap space. I am NOT a NSRA member, it cost me $60. Most swap meets are 1 day affairs, whereas this was for Friday and Saturday. I think the show it not what it was, but there was some good stuff in the swap, and some bargains. I did well and was pleased with what I sold. My tastes in hot rods have changed over the past 15 years so a lot of street rods don't appeal to me aesthetically. I go for the swap.
