Event Coverage Portland Swap Meet 2025

Rave on, Forrest

 

Here’s a couple more finds from the weekend
The Ray o vac

And the Stanley roach clip

I almost legally changed my name to Stanley so my name would be in all my tools. Who wants to hang around with a guy named snap on?

Show and tell. Let’s see your Portland swap meet treasures.

 

My haul....

 

You got some nice FORD parts . They aren’t makin that stuff anymore .

 

Sweet heater.

 

Didn’t pickup anything at the swap meet, I regret not making an offer on the green altered T fiberglass body at the expo, hopefully I see around sometime.

 

My only treasure went straight to the finisher so no pictures until it comes back. I got both halves of a like new '39 Chev grille still in bare metal and didn't need any prep to refinish. So whenever I get the call to come pick it up I'll take pictures before installing it on my '39.

 

Truth told I didn't need anything I bought but after paying $28 to park and get in I had to leave with something other than heartburn from that sausage on a stick I ate.

 

Foot long corn dogs and sausage on a stick.
As Ben Matlock (remember him) would say "Gooood hot Dog!!!

 

Didn't sell too much at Expo, but did but a good wheel cover to make a perfect Chip & Dip set out of to serve myself & friends with....

 

Another $10 find last week was a summit shift boot new in the bag.
Before: a sewn in fabric piece of ick

after install and done buffer time while it was apart
