Damn! Wish I was closer.

I'm still looking for a running/driving/stopping 60-63 Ford, Mercury, Chevy, Buick etc. for around $2500.
2 door, 4 door or wagon.
Don't mind if it needs paint, interior, maint. just can't have any major rust issues.
If there's any cars that fit that description PM me. It would be GREATLY appreciated!
If I buy something I'll treat that person to some Home Slice pizza if they come down to the Round Up

I made a fast 45 minute rip thru again today .. so I missed allot of stuff to be sure

 

The best one I've ever been to. We were making deals left and right, good prices, good parts.

 

I thought things were priced fairly , Seemed full but, I bet more stuff will roll in tomorrow too ..

weird being there without a umbrella huh ?

 

so that`s where plowboy gets those bubble tops ?

that was always a great swap meet when I lived up there
thank`s for the pictures

 

Nice to see you Big Dad. Got most of the parts I was looking for at a fair price. Had my son Alex with me, which made for a full day.

 

I sold a fair amount of stuff today and picked up a few good deals too. This is one of my favorites. Anybody thats coming out Saturday, stop my. CP1136 on the south end. Saw a few Familiar HAMB faces today and met a few more. Just wish I could remember everybody's names! I got Mexican Blankets for sale if anyone needs new seat covers!

 

I didn't mess with yah much .. You looked like you had your hands full
I'll see you next weekend I hope !

 

what did you fellers end up with?

 

I GOT ...... nothing

Eric I seen buy a burger though !!

 

I bought 9" Chunk for my coupe, 3.50 28 spline. Sure hope this one is a good one. The last one was junk and was going to go ahead and rebuild it but I'm taking another chance. At least this one was cleaned up and some die applied to check the pattern. Picked up an old br*** fire extinguisher for a puke tank, and a $5 steering wheel. I'll get to search for more bargains today, The wife is going to sell while I buy. Now that a working relationship!

 

I bouught a hot dog and some sandpaper

 

Just got back from the swap. Very dusty and windy.

 

Let me guess.............since she is the only one working she has to pay for everything too???
