Event Coverage Heading to Spring Jefferson??

Our car season, at for me, doesn't start until after Jeffereson. There aren't many good swapmeets until Jefferson. There is one in West Bend sponsored by the Model A Club in early March that is growing though.

 

GEE...Let me see............. 26 ft Halmark enclosed trailer full of hot rod parts,Ford Super Duty truck @ 10 Miles per gallon fuel @ $3.99 nope Jefferson is just fine with Jeanne and I!!

 

Agreed, Spring Jefferson is the start of summer and Fall Jefferson is the end of summer for me.

 

I'll be there all the way from Florida. I have some cheesehead friends with a couple of booths. I have no idea where though. Hope to run into a couple of folks up there.

I'll be the angry looking guy with the billetproof shirt!!!

 

Be there Fri morning yg 150s.......we moved down 3 or 4 spots this year to higher ground

 

I will be at Torquefest this weekend. I am skipping Jefferson. Torquefest has a better reason to go for me. I hate to miss a swap but that just leaves more goodies for bobwop, povertyflats and gasserlouie to get since I am not going. LOL

 

now i dont feal so bad knowing i not going to miss you lol
maybe i'll go to torquefest now
tk

 

I hope all you guys wander through the car corral. Look for us under the pavillion at the South end, just beyond the concrete bathrooms. I hope to see a bunch of you, especially Evelyn.

 

I'll be there. Goint to Torquefest on Fri and Sat, then Jefferson on Sunday. Lotsa driving, but all worth it!

 

You are gonna be real sorry but we will see you in Iowa on Saturday. should be fun!

 

hoping to go on sunday.... if its not pouring.

Dropping my 6 month old hot rodder off at daycare Friday morning and it's off to Jefferson. Saturday we are heading to Torque Fest. Now that's one fine weekend.

 

4.30 am off we go!! Holy shit 31 degrees burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

 

Everything is on schedule for us as we are in town and will be driving a car into the car corral for Bob.

 

Any updates on grounds conditions? Is it a slophole?

 

Just talked to a vendor from Minnesota.He drove down-took a look-drove back home.Said it looked really ugly.Swap spaces under water.Cant verify it but that was his report.

 

I called there today and they said it was fine, but I doubt they would say otherwise. We're going to give it a shot.

 

Il be there in the morn.

 

it was pretty dry today, nothing really muddy at all for the most part. maybe just a few small areas where actually muddy, but nothing like years past.

 

Just like he said, it was dry and a great day to be there, probably the best Spring Jefferson I've ever gone to. Had to be around 60°, at least. Walked around all day with a flannel shirt and sneakers. Very little web spots.

 

I was there today, didn't see this thread until tonight, otherwise I would have dropped by for a meet and greet. I am off to Torque fest tomorrow.

 

We'll be there all day tomorrow like usual. Wouldn't miss a Mudfest. Kicks off the season for me like others have said. Hoping to find a few good parts but if not oh well, it's a fun day with my dad

See you all there!

 

The MN vendor must have been at the wrong place. The conditions were superb. There was not a speck of mud in the car corral and there was no dust. Nice refreshing breeze, brilliant sunlight and very pleasant temps.

I was blessed with a visit from Povertyflats and Gasser Louie, as well as PF's favorite BIL, Lawrence. In addition, I saw many other HAMBers such as Evil Clown, Cloned Clown, Arnie, SNelson57, Petritl, Jalopy Jim, Touchdowntodd and his GORGEOUS and Awesome Smelling wife Evelyn. Along with the usual criminals and hoodlums that roam the Swap Meet.

Prices in the Car Corral were unreasonable and there were just too many OT vehicles, but the quantity was good. I expect the Corral to be filled tomorrow.

it was nice to have a good day with a great crowd. I am happy for the Esse family and hope the vendors and swappers enjoyed great success.

 

We had a great time and got to see a lot of Hambers including Kelly and his wife Jean plus all the ones mentioned by Bob. I bought some really cool items and so did Lawrence. I will post some photos first of the week when I get home. Now sadly we must leave Wisconsin and head to Iowa for Torque Fest show.

 

Good to see you all...Thanks for the hospitality, Bob...
