    Great job on the pics. I was there today and feel that while Carlisle seems to be fading, Hershey is as strong as it ever was. Amazing treasures show up year after year. Although I can't afford most of them, I do enjoy looking. Experienced several near misses with golf carts, scooters, bicycles, wagons etc. Everyone should try to make it at least once.

    Here we are, set up and ready to sell in the Green field. After a slow start, business picked up and we had our best single day selling- ever. We specialize in ‘41-‘46 Chevy and GMC Truck parts. We had buyers from at least 4 States and Canada. The weather was steamy when the clouds parted; pleasant when the breeze started. Larger than normal crowds probably due to the rain forecast for Thursday.
    I did get to see a small portion of the car corral. There are some nice cars there- but the DeSoto Woodie made me stop and stare!

    Great coverage, thanks for including sale-prices, that's always interesting and useful to see. Boy, that '46 Ford convertible with the Pontiac 389 seems like a bargain to me! The 32 5W coupe seems reasonable too. And is that the going rate on 34 Ford 5 window cars? Looks like an untouched one.

    Yeah, it was hot today, but I ate my PB&J sandwich in the Hershey Bears hockey arena in the air conditioning. According to my phone, I walked 10.6 miles. At 72, all those little scooters dragging tin cans aren't looking so stupid anymore. I did find some bargains, but found a lot of full blown retail prices on a lot of stuff, with not much wiggle room. Everyone seems real happy there, including all the dogs in their strollers & wagons in their beds on top of piles of junk. Gotta love it!

    Thanks for taking the time to take the pics and post them here. You did a great job. I spent 4 days there last year and it was good to see what was there this year. Best swap meet in the world!

  20. First pic you posted. This is an interesting model A cowl.
    Pull that old piece of truck wood of and mount your Duval Screen.
    BTW, thanks guys for your impression of day 2. We can,t all be there.

    This one looks like Edsel’s speedster.
    Was it for sale??

    Re the speedster, not sure though I agree with your thoughts. Did not see a for sale sign but it was close to the car corral when I saw it.

    We looked it over pretty closely and wondered if it was a copy.
