  2. I was thinking about getting up about midnight and making a run over just to walk around, but I need to be up 4:00 AM Monday.

    I will just get up early and put in a good long day's work on the racecar instead.

    Well I'm kinda surprised that the coupe didn't sell but I did sell enough to get some 34 stuff and keep some loot in my pocket.

    It was an amazing day. The V8 club did a great job as always. There was some heavy hitter rare stuff for sale and enough blue coller stuff to build 2000 jalopy hot rods. All in all a great day. See you next year

    Nice event & the people there very friendly with some great stuff for sale.
    Many nice cars on display as well.
    My photos don’t do it justice.

    Thanks for the great photo of this fine example of the derivation of " It's always a Dodge" That truck is just cracking me up here!
    Am I seeing things, or is that the exhaust running through the corner of the cab and exiting where a side step might have been?
    All of that composition of that photograph is priceless !

    I was set up with a couple buddies. I did pretty damn good. Sold a bunch of my own junk and some item's from an estate I'm currently handling. It was great to see so many people and catch up.

    I really wish we had another swap meet of this caliber in New England. Nothing against CSRA or TyRods (CT) but neither Rentschler Field nor Stafford can compare with Fitchburg. We've been holding our monthly swaps at the American Legion but haven't been able to see any tremendous growth.

    What a great time. Good seeing old friends and meeting new ones.

    It's a nice size swapmeet, not to big and not to small. Was alot of good deals.

    @41 GMC K-18 yessir that is a "tail pipe" The muffler is just in front of it held up with bailing wire. Likely not staying like that. . .

    You did say it. . . . . . We WILL see you there
    You'll likely find something that you need for your roadster.

  27. The flea market may be little by your standards, but it is the quality, and availability of good stuff that makes it worthwhile for me to make a 7 hour drive, and an overnight motel stay to go there.

    I've never made it to Turlock, but feel bad I haven't made it to this meet up the road in New Hampshire. Bob

  30. Bob, you had the chance to go to Turlock when you visited your Daughter in California. Shame on you for not going when you were so close.
