Event Coverage CSRA BRISTOL CT. Swap Meet MAY 1

on a trailer Bob behind Mikes pickup. see you there.

 

Mikes pickup has only hauled stryofoam peanuts, about time we put something in it. We're on the road!

 

THERES NO GOOD STUFF LEFT! you got it all stashed at your place.

 

Change of plans for me today...I will see you guys there

 

We had a GREAT Time! Bought everything I wanted, but was 5 minutes too late on a 1930 Model A firewall and gas tank. Met a lot of HAMB Members, weather was perfect, field was not sold out, maybe the cost of gas is having an effect.

 

Bob, what did you get? i found some fenders for my beater truck. had lots of interest in the car, but no offers. maybe i'll keep it and run it this summer. saw a lot cool stuff good meet as usual.

 

i went with friends ,,had a great time ,,saw alot of good stuff,,bought a little pile of things,,my friend bought 2 cars, seems he had fifty thousand cash on him,,the weather was perect, spend about 100 on food,,had too park in gods country and we got there early wantd to buy a cab but no trailer,,so if you had one and still have it hit me up,,can,t wait for the next

 

Sorry it did not sell. Saw alot of people looking at it. Thought for sure it would go. I bought some shrink tube and a HAMBurger. It was good to see everyone and meet some new guys. Allstarderricks A tudor is as nice as it gets. I will try to stop over Monday and see the other old man.

 

allstarderricks tudor and your '32 [in your avitar] are two of the nicest cars i've seen. both cl***y colors and details. i saw derricks car at a show in washington last year and couldn't stop studying it. i love how the engine and body colors are repeated on the upholstery. very nice.

 

Thanks! My buyer (from Camada) backed out last night (afraid of the economy) so the 32 is stiil on the market. Hopefully the Cobra will sell and I will keep the 32. Mark

 

sell them both and buy a chevy

 

Got a few things, always a good show but I was suprised the field was not sold out. Weather was perfect for a change so I dont know what would keep people away.

 

Paid $40 for a vendor spot and sold one fender for $20, and got a wicked sunburn. Not a good year for me, but there's always the fall.

 

Had a great time and met some old friends I hadn't seen in years. Bought a few things (mosty tool type stuff) and then headed out to a Mopar meet at Mohegan Sun.

Not a bad turn out considering Carlisle and Amherst on same weekend.

Dennis

 

Didn't buy anything but had a good time walking around with my Dad and hanging out with some friends and fellow hambers.

 

Managed to score some wheels, gauges, a carter carb and a fuel pump. A lot more of interest at this swap than any I've been to. Wish I got there sooner to try to meet up with some guys, but I was hustling through just get get a quick look at everything before people started packing.
