That has always been my Rule #1, "Never buy a car you don't like." I figure if it can't be sold I don't want the ugly thing reminding me every time I look at it.

Title for another thread, what cars /parts did you sell to buy your house? Back in 1978 I sold set of NOS ARDUN Heads to pay for the plumbing in the hose I built and still live in.

You can get lost on the Google image search by typing in Hiram P. Maxim and Frederick Richard Simms, machine guns, pre 1900 autos, and aeroplanes and flying tanks. The Simms Scout with the Maxim below looks easy to park in any city.

RUGER here in Connecticut, built two prototype cars in the 1970's that looked somewhat like a Blower Bentley, 427 Ford powered and used a Divco milk truck front axle. He also had a fine collection of restored pre war cars. Bob

I just wonder what the chain drive steering was like in frozen weather.

That is the former Wally McCarthy Loco, great Tour car, hope everyone is well and the car will be repaired. Bob

Thanks Walt, seeing what others bought is always fun. I delivered a wheel that was bought on line and met the buyer for the first time, always fun to meet someone with like interests for the first time. He had a GREAT meet kept stopping buy to share the finds of his day. I had a needed hood delivered, that my sales covered. Never went out shopping for stuff to flip, some years are like that. Missed having the Grandkids with us for the first time, but having our dog along for the first time was a lot of fun. Will be back in 2024 for 55 in a row. Thanks to everyone that makes the happiness happen. Bob

Stafford may have too many snow blowers, but the $10.00 Lozier hub cap was one of my greatest finds there. Hit Thompson once, just so far away and in the same state.

Never knew that, so the "Real" car is still with us, the prop is missing, nothing to worry about, keep looking for the missing Bugattis, Mercers and Duesenbergs.

Unsold things are put away till next year, hood I bought has one stubborn pin that I'm trying to remove. Filled five barrels with leaves, what are your fall/winter car plans? Having all four doors fit and working on the '29 Model A by Spring time is my goal. Need to take some photo to go with a new thread I plan to start tomorrow.

He is, and gained a lot of fans. Grass walking area was just across the isle and we walked it just like his daily street walks. Time to sign off and walk him now. Bob

Chocolate field gate was open and NOBODY was around.

THANK YOU! Glad you saved this collection and posted some of it. Bob

Every town has dealerships for new cars, stop in and ask them about their "Car Clubs".

Hank too one last look at the Hershey Lawn, ready for the ride home.

If Hank could type he would say he had a great time, enjoyed his walks on the lawns and inspecting the trees. LOVED the 4 hour drive, couldn't take his eyes off the landscape. He added a lot of new members to his Fan Club. Bob

I missed the members of AACA (Hershey Region members?) greeting us at the entrance to the Chocolate field in the morning as in years past.

I was 10 years old when Mom dropped me off at the local HCCA annual meet here in town in 1961 in a BRAND NEW Ford. , The show had a 1942 cut off and I don't play to ever change my definition of "Antique Automobiles"

Arrived around 7:30 Monday Left @ 8:00 Thursday. Fun at the Swap Meet! Met new friends, saw old ones, miss the ones that are no longer with is.

I'll have a pair of what I was told were one year only 1970 MG bumpers

Dale's is no longer set up as a food vendor, BIG LOSS to everyone that enjoyed having his family there every year.

Are there any official rules about dogs in the Hershey swap meet?

Looks like a European wheel, a French make used the five spoke design. Bob

Need 1931 Ford VICTORIA door trim, garnish moldings, TOP section needs to be good, rough bottoms are OK, thanks! Bob C4J 39-42

At 72 I must be in great shape, NEVER ONCE COMPLAINED ABOUT WALKING AROUND THE HERSHEY SWAP MEET! See you all next week! Bob
