Nashville Auto Fest anyone going?

Never been, thinking about going. Do you think its a good show?

 

Kelly,was thinkin the same, I've heard good and bad reports, need something to do in this weather.. Hope your keepin Keen out of trouble!!!

 

i'm going if the roads clear up. most of my buddies in nashville don't like this show,but i have gotten more good deals from the swap meet than i have gotten at the REALLY BIG swap meet in feb. long way to say yes

 

Might go, it's a typical 'open' indoor show. But like Bruce above said there is a bit of a swap meet, if I go that'll be why.

Besides, what else ya gonna do an a dreary cold-ass January weekend?

 

What are the Dates? Wouldn't mind goin' myself, if i don't have to work!

 

It's this weekend.

My boy and I plan to go, because there is not much to do on a cold winter weekend. Better than spending the day with my ol lady.

 

@ BA and Gator you mean you guys may get to spend a few minutes with me 2 Saturdays in a row? HA HA. Hey I plan to come up Saturday around 10 to check out the swap meet maybe I will see you there.

 

Got one coming up in Lexington next weekend. Show/Swap/Corral

ALL RAT RODS
ALL BEST CAMARO

Yeah I think I'll sit this one out....I'm done with open shows. I've seen enough flip-flop paint jobs and Grand Ams with 20" wheels.

 

I'll be going but I fall into that "there's nothing else better to do" category too. I am friends with the guys that put the show on and always have a good time, even if all the cars aren't my taste.

I had originally planned to take my '42 down to try and sell it but got lucky and sold it last night. So now I guess I'm going looking for deals.

 

After all the "Positive" comments, i think i'll just stay close to home and Work! Make me some Hot Rod Money!!

 

I may go too. Got cabin fever..Some friends have a trip planned in the rods but too much ice on back roads may postpone the run...

 

I usually go and then say "never again" on my way home.But then, its cold,snowy and "nothing better to do" again. So I might go. Not much of anything usually in the swap meet other than Chinese tools and matchbox cars and women selling unrelated craft stuff.The big one on Feb 6 is greatly better.

 

ok alabama boys is there anything goin on in our state. everything always seems to be somewhere else.

Bruce how good is this one? Is it worth driving about 3.5 hrs? Thanks

 

Any other midwest events going on this weekend?

i might just end up going, for the swap meet if nothing else

'best' rat rod? s c a r y

 

Would love to go but too much bad weather between me and there !

 

well,it beats settin at the house!!! depends on the weather. you know i've been the last 4-5 years and could not tell you a single car that was in the show. i just LOVE swap meets.it's not the biggest, but like i said i have gotten some really good deals at this one. the stones river swap in feb is HUGE! almost to big. people are shoulder to shoulder and its hard to see everything. 3.5 hours,i i i i i don't know the drive up is part of my enjoyment. i've been in the house all week due to work being off,the garage was packed full and NO room to work in there.so i need to get out.if you got stuff to do at home/car related stay home and work on it. if you need to get out and kill a day hit the swap. boy that was a non-commitelle answer wasn't it

 

I can always find something to buy at a swap meet. Come look around my garage, most of it is still sitting around there and 1 day I'm gonna take it to a swap meet and sell it!

 

Just returned from attending the Autofest....Great crowd...Almost as many vendors as cars... Lots of swapmeet stuff too. Just as mentioned before in this thread this is an open car show.

 

I just got back. AutoFest was ok. I bought a couple of column parts from the Southern Kentucky Classics. Look at AC units for my 56' F100 at Northern Kentucky

 

dang. did ya'll avoid me or what?....i know, i had on long pants didn't recognize me did ya!!!!!
