    I haven’t experienced anybody else’s rust or stale grease in some months so decided to take a ride to the “Better Living Center” at the Big E fairgrounds this morning.

    Having not been there in a number of years, I was not surprised to see more tool and abrasives vendors (Nickthebandit’s old spot occupied by one of them) as well as a reasonable amount of circle track stuff.

    There were a few vendors with on topic stuff.
    Enjoy!

  7. Pete, that is one swap meet that I miss. Not so much for the parts, but to see, and speak with people that I haven't seen since last summer.

    Thank you all for your kind words! Was nice to get out in the middle of winter and mix. Also good to have a few small acquisitions follow me home.

    Yes Ted, that Buick was beautiful. Funny thing was that a number of people were hanging around it when I first saw it and thought to go back later for a picture but…….:oops:
