Event Coverage Jefferson

Next week is another spring jefferson swap meet. I always look forward to this huge show. I have been going since 1983. Being a spring show they have had all kinds of weather good and bad. I go rain or shine. The amount of items I have pulled out of this show is off the charts.
My car is the featured car this year. It will be on the grounds doing nitro fire ups.
Let's not forget the big bars.

 

Mmmmmm
Big bar.

 

Looking like I'm going to miss it this year.
Ya all have a Big Bar for me!

 

Big Bar ...... for sale

 

yes, big bar will not be there. they have closed and the business is for sale.

 

It's looking like rain...again.

 

Its been for sale for a few years. I heard the same thing last year. They were there last year. I had a few.

 

I’ll be there looking for things I can not live without

 

Man…I’m in town too early. I was looking for things to do in the area since I am in Waukesha for work…

 

Drag your work out til Friday Are you per chance at the Waukesha Engine Plant?
Dan

 

No, I will be at the Ditch Witch dealer in Waukesha and headed to see some customers Monday and Tuesday. I already have plans to go see my son at college in Colorado when I leave here. Otherwise, I would work something out.

 

Enjoy your visit with your son , that out ranks a swap meet any day. I thought you might be at the Waukesha engine facility as a lot of oil field people from OK go there for training etc. isn’t everyone from OK in the oil business lol.
Dan

 

Yea, time with my son is definitely more important than a swap meet.

And, some of us Okies are just ditch diggers. I am responsible for a ditch digger with a blown and injected big block Chevy though. So, all ditch digging isn’t bad.

 

Please fill me in with details , never saw a blown bb ditch digger, some guys have all the fun

 

Some Okies are not lucky enough to be in oil business or ditch digging.

 

Someone has to be the banker. I was a ditch digger years ago, definitely no BB Chevy, I didn’t even have the strong back they talked about.
Dan

 

Sending a pm since it is OT topic for here Dan.

 

Thanks sounds crazy
Dan

I have done Jefferson with my son a few times, differently priceless. Have your son skip school and fly out to Wisconsin haha.

 

Spring Jefferson is synonymous with rain, and this year looks to be no exception.

 

I will be there Thursday and Friday. WH 134-137

 

Keep up on the weather. It keeps getting better.

 

Will do Brian

 

being the featured car this year i will have the whole rig on site with the car. i will be doing nitro fire ups both days. stop by for a beer.

 

If anyone needs a 69 chevelle I'm bringing one. Needs work solid car. 9800.00 can't pit pics here but I can pm you some.

 

Don't think i am going to make it if i do it will be a fast walk thru, just too much happening and i had someone with a big mouth that offered my help and they called me on it to help this weekend.

i should really been a vendor this year. i brought 6 pallets of car parts so far this year already just to get a few parts i wanted. mostly new off topic stuff but i couldn't pass up the price to get my items. oh well, maybe in fall i will be a vendor again, by then i should have a few more pallets brought.

 

See everyone tomorrow

 

It's really true.
No Big Bars this Spring
What is this world coming to??
