    I am curious to know when this is being held also, I havent been in a couple of years, but was planning on going this year. -Joe
     
  5. It's the first Saturday/Sunday - this year it's 2/5 & 2/6 at the fairgrounds in Kzoo. Lots of antique stuff but there's often a nugget or two of stuff for us guys. A fair amount of intakes, 4 speeds, mags and the like...

    Mostly car stuff
     
  9. Sorry CherryBlossom - antique car stuff...well, maybe the odd dish, but very little of that. When I think antique I think cars (can't help it) and you think antiques. Kinda made me laugh. You and Mike can both come though....

    That would be fun. Seems like we always go to the Perkin's out on Sprinkle when I can drag her out of bed that early, but chain stores are lame, know any good hole-in-the-wall places?

    I think I'll be heading over there w/ my bud Steve Toth (Fat Fitty Six). Not sure which day, maybe saturday? Breakfast sounds like a good idea, as long as it aint super-early in the morning... we have a 2 hour drive.

    Anyone else from the metro area going?

    i know a bunch of hole in the wall places.it depends on how hole in the walla nd how close to the fairgrounds.
