Monroe WA Swap Meet this weekend!!

Hey @ClarkH
The cool metal big letter "G" is now incorporated into my avatar.
Check out how the MOBILE rusty wheel cover now looks with a little red paint to the letters!
The mast light is now functional.
Thanks from Dennis.

Monroe swap meet this weekend! who's going? I'll be there with the old bel air rain or shine!

 

When I lived in Yakima the Monroe Swap Meet was a “Must Do”. See some really cool stuff

 

I'll be there Saturday, hope it isn't too wet!

 

I will be looking for 57 ford and 1930 Model A stuff on sat. Maybe on Sunday-maybe.

SHOTGUN ! !
Tagging along with Samurai Mike ... Point me to the "free" piles and get the heck out of the way .. (Especially if I'm hauling a loaded wagon .. the old Radio flyer ain't got no brakes !

 

I'll be setting up later today. But sorry @caseywheels , our "free" pile won't appear until Sunday. Until then you can make do with the ever-popular $5 table.

 

Is it go time yet ?

 

Since I live in Monroe I have no excuse not to go. Weather isnt looking great so I loaded a couple of pop ups. I dont have anything HAMB friendly to sell. Mostly 67-72 Chevy truck stuff, oh and a unicycle. Gotta throw something weird in there. I used to bring a lot of toy cars and kid car related. Kids would look at em and ask their dad and then I would just give it to the kiddos. Little happy campers. Im plumb out of those kinds of things now.

 

Take all of that "Secret Stuff" you have stashed away. Those guys don't care whether it is H.A.M.B. friendly or not....
Leon.

 

My secret stash has dwindled down to almost nothing haha!

 

happy hunting everybody!

 

The weather was rough yesterday with some periods of ok-ness. I sold most of my stuff except for a couple of higher ticket items. First time I didnt bother to walk the meet, that was difficult. Im trying not to acquire any more stuff. I had buddies stopping by all day showing off all the great deals they were getting, but I stayed strong haha. We have family commitments today so I cant go back.

 

Got a few things-good deals but not screaming. Not a lot of stuff there for me. Mostly 60’s and hot rod stuff. There was A LOT of flathead stuff though.

 

I haven't seen that much s**** aluminum there in years!

 

I really intended to go out there yesterday but the weather kept me here at the house. I know better than to go out there today, because the pickings will be slim. Sorry I missed seeing my friends @ClarkH and @Hitchhiker .
I am sure they both sold well, and potentially bought some cool stuff as well!
Thanks from Dennis.

It's always great to hear the swap meet stories! Thanks.

 

I went yesterday, didn't get TOO wet, walked a lot and spent a grand total of $3.00. I did see a few things for decent prices that got me thinking about updating my '40 again, but fought off the temptation... for now. Good to see Hitchhiker and Charlie, Bob and Sam.

 

Made it there yesterday spent $120, got some more books, a nice repo 40 Deluxe steering, 1940 WA plate and something for my off topic late model Mustang. Said hi to Hitchhiker.
