sounds like a good time, how big is the swap?

 

Sounds like fun! I'll see you all there!

 

just the cars for the show run in the low 300 hundred all the time, it is a great show and swap to come to


swap is held in the racetrack area, goes around about 3/4 mile, so it is really good size never know what you see, plus there uis a car corral for sale stuff many many runners and projects stuff, alot of 60, 70's stuff, but in the swap many model t and a and 40.s vintage parts

 

I'll probably go- sounds fun and it's close! It'll be cool to see ya Scoop!

I'll be there to scrounge around the swapmeet with my '56 F100

 

many sellers already here, ready for early morning

 

I was on a business trip one year and got to hit this swap. It was one of the best I has ever been to. Lots of smoking deals to be had.

 

I'll be there, only with a '48 instead of a '51. Maybe time to change the handle.....

 

wwow would be a good word for this show race track full, car show full ,all the town was business going on, what a show, and i only took a few pics

 

it was bigger and better than ever...the swap was huge and there were some deals , and we sold a bunch of stuff too. it's becoming a can't miss show/swap

 

heck ya
somebody else scooped a pretty nice 29 roadster ...early
hopefully some one got a picture..????
. i found a 32 grill insert and 32 hood sides and 3 sets of golf cart tires..
girlfriend found a 57 tbird air cleaner .. she had been looking for a few years

wish i would have been able to see it all but sadly i did not go through it all even once.. would have liked a second look thru it was pretty big did not look at cars at all.. or sale car corral

 

That air cleaner was steal. I was going to buy it, but I just really did not need it..Glad somebody got it that really does need it.

I picked up a set of late teens/early 20's frame rails from a "Colby". Never heard of it but they have a nice shape for my '27 Roadster. Also picked up a tranny for my 56 F100.

 

I had a great time. Picked up a ford 8 inch rear with 3.50 gears, brand new radial TA tires for my fairlane, new falcon fuel sending unit for $5, and a bunch of little things. The 29 roadster was nice. Sold for $6500. Very impressive show. Could not have asked for a nicer day.

Nice swap. picked out a few hot rod parts for current and not current projects.
Missed out on a couple things on my second time through including some 60's finned sbf valve covers and a 6 deuce setup on an offie intake.

 

Missed it. Dang. Maybe next year.

 

There is still Roadsters next month.

 

Great meet as usual. The '29 roadster was primo. $6500 and it sold by 10:00. There was a nice '29 tudor there too, very complete for about $3000.

This Wizzer is what caught my eye. $800



Everything was there. Just bust it down, clean it up and ride it!

I thought the cars for sale were pretty reasonable too. I didn't buy anything but a milkshake...but i looke a lot.

Didn't see Scoop either...dammit!
