    Moultry GA is close to us Florida guys...two swaps a year. Then there is Cruzin the Coast out on the panhandle....not very impressive, but I'll be back.
    Good luck

    I've been looking and I haven't been able to find too much here in the Orlando area. Orlando seems to be dominated utterly by the import scene.
     
  7. There is a swap in Mount Dora. But the Sumter swap is the best and it ain't that far..

    Years ago, I went to a swap meet at the Daytona Speedway. It was

    vintage and muscle car parts. Not bad, but not worth the 18 hour trip down

    from NJ. I don't know if they still have it going on. I originally found out

    about it through Hemmings Motor News. I spent most of the 3 days at

    Hooters ;) Ah, good times.

    Are you talking about Turkey Run at Thanksgiving ? If so, that is my very favorite swap meet, it fills up half the infield. I can't imagine anyone not finding most anything they need at that one.

    A guy told me about one he goes to in the Sebring area of Florida monthly. I don't know exact details but he said it was big and has a lot of old stuff that shows up pretty reasonably priced. There used to be one in Auborndale, but that was years ago that I went and not sure it exists today.

    Renninger's swap in Mt Dora sucks, don't even bother going, although I did find a 59 Impala steering wheel for $20 there once.
     
  11. I agree, but I've done pretty good selling there and I hooked Jim up with a 32 gas tank for $75.

    Don, If I remember correctly, it was between Spring break

    and Bike week.

    Oh, that is the Spring fling or something like that. We keep hearing about it but have never gone. Supposedly, it is about half the size of the Thanksgiving show and swap meet. Greg P. on here is part of the Daytona group that puts it on, so he might see this and add some info about it.
