Event Coverage Turlock Swapmeet

The Turlock Swapmeet is coming up on the 26th-27th of this month. Gates open at 7am and I believe it's $10.00 to get in. Who's goin and what are you lookin for?

 

i am looking for some fenton headers for a 216, and a model a coupe body and frame!!! woo hoooooo!!!!

 

If the fog ain't to bad.......Need a pair of 'stang seats, will trade an aluminum Beech seat.

 

hope it freakin' warms up by then! every year I bring all this cold weather gear and then it ends up being nice and my swap meet wagon is full of jackets and sweatshirts.

I find it strange that the best Turlock swap is in the middle of winter, while most of the summer ones are half full.

 

will be there Sunday. flying to GNRS in Pomona Saturday. looking for cheap deals.

 

Heading down Friday with a buddy, camping at the RV area. Looking for headlights, glove box door, windshield trim, guage cluster, tailgate...etc.
Ditto on the fog, took forever last time, 25mph on HWY99 for miles.

 

I'll be there with my kiddo and my friends. Never miss it!

Looking for the inner fenders, radiator side tins and a trunklid that isn't totally fubar'd, an instrument cluster, and other little parts for a 1956 Chevy car; a Chevy magneto or a Chevy distributor with a magnetic pickup; a set of early Ford kingpins, maybe a set of cheap used 15" slicks for mockup.

Probably other junk I don't need.

 

Turlock in the Summer is hotter than the surface of the sun.

 

I forgot to mention what I'm lookin for. I will be on the hunt for 54 Chevy car inner fender wells, the tins that go on either side of the radiator, a trunk lid an a rear end for a 60 BelAir. That's all hahaha.

 

What size are you looking for?

I'm heading for Tractor Supply for a cattle prod for the legendary Turlock
"Power Bullshitters"- I figure a shot in the buns should move even the most militant lane cloggers

 

Last year I was able to mathematically calculate that there were actually more people at the swap meet than there are in all of China.

 

Is anyone from Oxnard area going up that wants some petrol money? I have 2 doors to pick up in Modesto that need to be delivered to Oxnard.
Any help would be appreciated.
Russell.

 

Not wanting to hijack this thread but is anyone else going up to it?

 

Anybody know if spaces are available?

 

my whole club is going never miss it.

 

See you there in the motor-home parking I'm going down Friday afternoon too. Need Falcon bumpers.

 

Is this everyone thats going??

 

I got Turlock coming up and then GNRS and after that, San Diego Big Three ..... wife says I can only go to one of them .... I'm gonna miss that woman.

 

Doubt it, you'll be out having too much fun to even remember her name.

 

I'm in. Not looking for any thing particular, maybe some chrome wheels, 5 lug 15" Chevy car , and a 348, but can't afford a 348. oh well, can't miss it.

 

Ill be there lookin for a header and a manifold for my Buick 263 str8!

also lookin for some cool hubcaps for the 51 ply

well be there as a seller/buyer--selling the restored gas pumps--gas/oil sign--and a little of everything -car parts----buying if your selling gas pumps feed the habit-
row p- can arrange shipping for the out of towners
if you dont find your stang seat--just got some high back stang seats kinda like a 69-70 style

 

I am looking for some roller 5 on 5. not wide five wheels cheap.

 

I never been...Heard a lot about it...My '47 Fleetmaster's all orig. and all there...Can't think of what I'd need...How's the girls...?

 

The January swap is put on by a different group than the swaps the rest of the year. If you have only been to the one in October you havent seen anything yet.

 

I agree with Muttley. This Swapmeet is way bigger with a lot more stuff.

 

Been going since 67, only missed it when I went to Nam. Old home week,see old friends from many years of hot rodding.
