    I'm new to the area and up the road from you just north of Chattanooga. I'm unfamiliar with the Perry swap meet. Is it pretty good sized and what can I expect to find?

    400 miles round trip is a lot. However there are good items to be found. Depends on what you are looking for. Sometimes there is a lot of old stuff and others it's mostly new. I bring traditional hot rod parts as well as garage junk. It's the only one in mid ga , and is moderate sized. Nothing like Moultrie, which is the next w/e and there is Daytona over Thanksgiving. Lots of the vendors will be at Moultrie, then on to Daytona.

    Thanks for the info. Last big swap meet I was at was the All Ford meet at the fairgrounds in Columbus OH. That happens twice a year. Last weekend of April, I believe, and Thanksgiving weekend. Last time I went there were 9 buildings full of parts and an outdoor car corral.

    That sounds like Daytona and Charlotte. The one in Commerce is smaller like this on 2 to 300 spaces. Just a guess. I might try the one in Commerce in Dec. Just a thought. Spectator, not vendor.

    I just saw this post. I came up Friday morning with a 27 Chevrolet and sold it before lunch. Brought my buddies 55 4 door Belair up Saturday morning and sold it before lunch. Friday was a whole lot nicer than Saturday. I did find a 39 Georgia license plate.
