38Buick 80C Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 OK it appears the annual Who is going to Hershey thread has been started on the AACA side http://forums.aaca.org/f228/2012-annual-who-will-hershey-where-335494.htmlI thought we should have a Buick / BCA edition. I'll be there with my dad. We'll have some stuff our Orange field space but I prefer to try and see the entire flea market and shop for parts. Plus have a pretty good memory of where all my Buick friends' spaces are so I do some visiting too.The Buick Club will have a tent in the Green Field GBK-35-37. Stop in say hi, get a cookie! Also I understand our BCA merchandise vendor will have his hauler there and will be selling BCA, Buick and GM merchandise I do not know where the merchandise vendor's spaces are however. See you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see if I can kick start this by posting some location of BCA'ers and parts suppliers (at least the ones by memory). Keep in mind I am in to Pre-war Buicks so this list is heavily toward that. Also the BCA Tent will have a pretty good list of where stuff Buick vendors are at that will probably fills some gaps.Green FieldBCA Tent GBK 35-37BCA Merchandise GBA-38Bob's Automobilia around GDI 2-5CARS around GBM13-15Mac Blair around GGH or GDJ 30-35 ishJim Peters around GBC 1OrangeFrank Buke OBC 33Bill McLaughlin around OBA 10ishRedBob Coker RWA-18Lewis Jenkins Red field somewhere I believe fairly close to Chocolate NorthEd Natale - RSD 35 ishChocolate SouthSkip Boyer - CT, CP, CN 50 (somewhere around there)Jack Welch - CI or CG in 35-40 space range or so John Henry - near JackJesse Morton/John Scheib Academy Auto Space 1 maybe like row CMDoug Seybold - between Boyer and Morton maybe like CO or CQ 15 ishChocolate NorthI know there is one pre-war guy in about the dead middle of this feidl but no idea his name or spaces.Maybe I'll keep notes this year or more folks need to respond to the thread!!

dibarlaw Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) I plan to be there at least for the show on saturday. Would like to be there for thursday to flea market to seek out stuff for the 25-25 and 37-41. I can't leave school till 3:00. It is a shame how a job can get in the way of one's hobbies. But I had hoped to get the 1937 Special back in time to register for the driver class but it just was delivered last night. (Was promised to be ready to drive to the BCA national in June.) The shop said all the heavy lifting has been done and it would just need some tweaking! Took it out for a short drive aprox 3 miles... had to tow it back home!! Just quit at a red light. When I tried to restart battery was dead!! But the Hampton Gray wheels are pretty!Not Happy.

Paul from PA Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I am headed to the car corral with my low mileage (46,000) 1963 Invicta Wagon in the P section. Car corral is a show in itself and one of the highlights for me. It's been several years since I last sold one in Hershey. 1938 Lasalle, 1960 Impala, and a 1955 Buick sedan in years gone by.

adoldfield Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Is anyone going from the Iowa/Illinois/Wisconsin region? I am looking for a good samaritan who has room to bring back a header panel for '76 Century. The seller can deliver to Hershey. I need to get it back to Iowa or at least midwest. Will pay you for your trouble!Alan OldfieldBCA #15140adoldfield@aol.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rob McDonald Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Maybe I've been living under a rock or something but whatever happened to the Carlisle Swap Meet? Back in "my day" being the '80s, it followed Hershey - or preceded it, can't remember now - by a week and was almost as big. It was the premiere postwar meet, while Hershey's focus was prewar. Haven't heard a peep about Carlisle this year. Or last year, come to think of it. Did it fizzle out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul from PA Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Carlisle is still going and is this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rob McDonald Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Oh, good. Maybe next year I'll make my return pilgrimage. From what I remember, I should be making my motel reservation about now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My swap space is Green field GBE 40.(Im listed under VW as from 30 years of VW collecting)I will be selling some NOS 1951 to 1952 Buick accessory bumper guard sets (called fender guards) for the front and rear if anybody needs them.

John Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Hey John, Thats the NOS fender (right side of the photo) that I bought from you last year.So that's why I couldn't find it when loading up--stop by and say hello!Bringing a lot of 40's/early 50's Buick parts: carbs, some fuel pumps, and a dual carb manifold. Also water pumps, starter motors, generator, suspension and steering parts, misc. electrical parts. Also some 60's Buick parts, and a few Olds and Pontiac items. The van is looking like a low-rider!
