HERSHEY 2022- what are you bringing and what are you hunting?

[Terry Bond]

Thought it was about time to begin a thread on what's coming - or what you might be looking for at Hershey this year. For me - it's the usual stuff - Always hunting for old spark plugs, watch fobs, pins, buttons, brass lamps, etc. etc.  The older the better!  Always looking for early auto accessories that I can display in my old auto parts store recreation.  See you there - GCC 5-6, across from the crab cake vendor in front of Giant center.

1941-46 Chevy and GMC truck parts. Actually some parts as far back as 1934. In the same wonderful spaces we were assigned by the Hershey Region about a decade ago: GAI 18-19. Just walk the car corral until you reach “Hyman Village”. Look for nearby light post 118- and you’re there. We missed our many friends from Canada ( especially Ontario!) last year; but I am optimistic they WILL return! We plan to arrive late Monday morning and stick it out to Friday afternoon. We are bringing the best group of parts ever! Hopefully the boss won’t be so cold in the mornings!

I have registered my 1962 Oldsmobile Starfire Coupe once again for the car show, and plan to be there first thing in the morning on Friday (not Saturday!).  Prior to that, I look forward to walking most if not all of the swap meet starting on Tuesday morning through Thursday afternoon.   In the meantime, I will count the days in eager anticipation of attending the greatest classic automobile event on the planet (and, famous last words, to try to get in shape to do so between now and then!)…

[Old buicks 2]

We will be in our usual spots  C4N  31-2 with NOS ignition parts for most makes and models from 1910 to 1960    Tom & Sue

[Frank Szymkowski]

we are bringing our Son's 86 Buick Grand national to try for a senior.

[Restorer32]

We will be there advertising our services.  Our 44th year restoring professionally and my 55th Hershey. My Son's 40th and he's only 39.  Stop by Red Field RWO 7-17 and say Hello.  We will be showing a freshly restored 1921 Milburn Electric on Friday.

I was wondering if this would be permissible in the car corral, provided I could get it to my spot somehow?

I try to bring everything but the kitchen sink     Never know what someone will need. Just hope the Lantern flies aren’t as bad as last year Orange field light pole 115 was like a magnet if I only got a nickel for the ones I got 😵‍💫

[edinmass]

 

What are people bringing? 90 percent of the same stuff they brought for the last 20 years. That said, it's always a great time at Hershey.

[Terry Bond]

I'd gladly pay 20 year old prices.

I'm coming with two of my kids and bringing my 1986 Monte Carlo SS...it will be in the HPOF Class....  36 years of ownership, first time showing it.

[John348]

 I have decided to part with these and as we know not many survived, they are 3' tall and develop about a 19' long sign, it is a pretty unique opportunity, for the right person They were not neon,  and were either back-lit or had down spots on them. They do have the brackets for wall mounting on the individual letters The best anyone can tell is that from the font and style that they were from the early to mid-50's. They will be in space RNI 82-85, I am sure they will sell pretty fast please contact me with a PM if interested ahead of time.

[STEVE POLLARD]

That's very cool John !

[Tom Devoe]

This year I'll be looking for signs and other garage memorabilia. Also always on the hunt for pre-war Studebaker parts!
