auburnseeker Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Here is my annual Hershey finds photo. I bought around 250 parts (depending on how you count them) and spent right around 1500 working out to around 6.00 each. As always, lots of bargains if you know what to look for. I didn't find anything for my own cars I couldn't live without or that was any better than what I had. We also picked up a nice set of chrome wheels and tires for the wife's new truck (came with steel wheels) for 200 delivered to our hotel.So that said, how did the rest of you do?

avantey Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I sold a lot of A & T parts! Did well from the time I opened the tailgate on Tuesday until the rain on Friday. I let a lot of it go cheap as I was helping a widow friend clean out the barn parts and she just did not want anything to come home. We almost succeeded..... However that meant I did not walk and buy much. I did send a mag out for rebuild and I found the wiper I needed for the '31 Hupp so I got two important things off the list. All in all a really good Hershey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCHinson Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I was primarily only looking for 1937 Buick Literature and found quite a few nice pieces at good prices. I also picked up a set of reproduction parking light lenses for 1937 Buicks. The normal parts suppliers have been out of stock of these for a while with no idea when they are going to get any more. I did not need them but several folks have been having trouble finding them lately so I plan to pass them along to someone who needs them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AlCapone Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Looks like you guys did well! It is a place where buyers and sellers can leave with a smile on their face. Congratulations! Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe in Canada Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Found a large exhaust whistle and forgot it should have a cut-out. A good reason to go back next year I guess. I also bought six brass carburetors large and small from one vender for a small display I have in mind. I will post some pictures of my idea when it is done.

1937hd45 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) I had a great time at Hershey! My Son in Law likes to run the swap meet spaces while I "shop". 1932 Ford B block, bell housing and '32 steering column drop were under priced. All the other odds and ends I bought fit in a wicker picnic basket.Bob Edited October 14, 2015 by 1937hd45 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restorer32 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 The biggest thing we were looking for at Hershey was a First Junior award for a '49 VW we restored and we found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John348 Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I came looking to have a good time with my friends, break even after selling some junk in my garage, one could say I got everything I needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vila Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Found what I was looking for, a First Junior for my TR4. First time at a judging car show since I finished the restoration. I also found an OEM spark plug tube wrench for the same car. Only tool I needed to complete the original tool kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
