    Its the start of swap meet season here in the midwest . I have a list I carry , mostly just look though. I am building my 57 chevy like the ones I had in my youth. Some stuff is a little hard to find. I have been hunting for a reverberator for a couple of years. I finally found the Impala steering wheel ,the 4 inch Keystones, even got the Hurst Ram Rod shifter. A old Sun tach with a ******* Garter hanging on it and I am in business. Its a sickness, this car stuff. See ya at the swap meets.

    NOS Ram Rod is a $400 piece.
    Winter's almost over, you can tell it's time because there's a lot of crabby folks around!
    March 24 is one of the 1st swaps in the area. Sugarloaf AACA in Westminster, Maryland. I'm ready!

  6. Oh yeah- like Danny said, we've been going year-round down here-

    January and February ****ed because of weather, superbowl (E-A-G-L-E-S- EAGLES!!! :D), etc...

    But this last weekend was awesome- over 300 vendors, around 1300 spectators, and lots of great stuff getting bought/sold/traded!!!

    Well it’s a used piece but functional for sure ......Kyana is this weekend in Louisville, the spring one is always better. I usually only set up at one day deals just easier for me to plan around.

    I waited a year to buy My Ram Rod shifter , no linkage and it was $50 at a garage sale . I felt really lucky . The 15x4 Keystones was a garage sale deal also ,Still looking for a old tach.
