    So overall I did pretty good ,time's are changing for sure. But I sold most of my stuff and came home with several treasures , Most notable was a factory 350hp L79 cam in its factory chevy cardboard tube :rolleyes:
     
  2. So did it fill up more with sellers on Saturday???.

    I went on Friday, got there about 8:30 (forgot it was Friday and got stuck in commuter traffic). About 3/4 of the sellers from last year (lots of empty spots), I'm hoping it picked up Saturday. I had a GREAT day, I f'ing love this swapmeet.....rain, shine, packed or less packed. I did find a few things I needed and didn't need :). Here's some unrelated random pix that won't help anything:

  5. I forgot to add, even with the lower amount of sellers there (and buyers) it still took me until 4pm to finish walking the whole thing. I think they need to have it 2 FULL days (not shut down early on Saturday). The car corral selling area was really bad on Friday...maybe 10 old cars for sale.

    Hopefully someone else will have pics as I tend to take worthless shots :D.

    Sold a bunch of stuff, but not enough to empty the truck. Even an FE cast intake my brother had for 24 years. Got all packed and instead of throwing left overs, Lumpy put his in my truck. I'm not sure I didn't come home with more than I arrived with(and I didn't buy one thing) Thanks Lumpy for all the great meals you service the crew!
