What are you bringing to Hershey this year?

[John348]

I know this could get moved, but I felt posting in General Discussion might be good place for those who can't attend and never bother to look at the Hershey specific Forum, sort of a Virtual Swap Meet. So if the powers to be feel it needs to be moved, so be it.

I am starting to pack thing up and decided it's time to part with a few items. Here is a few things I am packing up today. The scale is not automotive, but it always was a conversation in my garage, and hopefully it will be in someone else's for years to come RNI 85-79 Red Field North

Matt, the tow truck is just cool. Or as we said in junior high 50-some years ago "cool to death!".

 

Did you ever get the running sorted out?

From what I read on this site there is never any rest in the soul of Mr Harwood until he gets things running and operating as they should. 

[rocketraider]

Yes, but seems I remember that Linken and the tow truck were kicking his can all over the place...😏

[Walt G]

I will be up in the NE corner of the RED Field at RNG 10 and 11. there is a shuttle bus stop ( or has been in the past) about 150 feet east of me. I am near the WOKR Club booth.

I will have what you see here for sale or trade. I also will have some period paper,  photographs both pre and post war, some original some quality reprints ( not done on a computer but in a photo lab off an 8  x 10 negative)

My son and I will be open starting Tuesday morning.   I will be seeking coach builders body tags/emblems , and souvenir programs for the Chicago, NY, Los Angeles and San Francisco custom body salons. that I do not have. The RR hubcap is for a PI Springfield.

 

9/8/23 I am posting a photo here of coach builders badges/emblems I will also bring along but they will be for trade only  not for sale.

Yep, it runs and drives great. We were planning to bring it to Hershey last year but the carburetor started leaking a few days before we were going to leave. A new carburetor and all was well. Fires up and runs great now, we've been driving it all summer. It'll be there for sure this year.

Selling the tow truck and the Cord, showing the Lincoln on Friday. The Lincoln will be in our car corral spot all week since it's how we'll be getting back and forth to our hotel each day. But please, don't panic if you see a SOLD sign on it--that's only to keep people from trying to buy it. That, or maybe a ridiculous price tag, so don't think me a fool when you see it.

I am bringing cigars and vintage crown because I owe you a “thanks for being a nice guy” present for talking me out of leveraging myself on an expensive acquisition a couple years ago. 

Other than that:  sample Woodgrain dashes, some Maxwell brass, a 15 dodge to put in the show (hpof), perhaps some early dodge parts, piles of pig iron that never sells, and some supposedly very nice v8 packard stuff for a friend but I have not seen any of it yet. I am on the non rolls Royce side of rolls Royce row. C2E40-ish.

I will put a stupid price tag on my car for the show. The car will be out all week (depending on weather), and it decreases pointless conversations…. Or are pointless conversations half the charm of the week?

Works for me, too.   Also the broker for the 401K account seems to have perfected this strategy.  

[Dandy Dave]

Hopefully you will see me on the show field with the White. Last year Covid kept me home.  

[erichill]

CASH Lots of it. and a shopping list and an enabler.  See ya in a month 

[oldford]

Dave, I need to speak to you about a project. If I don't see you before, see me at the booth. C4Y-34-37.

[Terry Bond]

Bringing some brass stuff, lamps, clocks, some misc lit, and everything from early auto sheet music, watch fobs to gas light burners.  Will have a few really nice pieces of early autombilia -the real stuff - for serious collectors,.  I'll have a nice selection of rare spark plugs for collectors too. 

 

I'm in my usual spots - GCC 5, 6, almost across from the crab cake vendor in front of the Giant Center.

 

If I'm not there when you stop in it's because I'm out looking for more stuff.

 

Bring me some old unusual spark plugs!

Terry

[LARRYCAROL]

I am bringing my wife and her scooter .  Can’t wait only 4 weeks!!

Don't the extra eyes come in handy?  Even when its my turn to mind the store Susan is out looking for MG stuff.  If she spots something i don't need, she'll text me a quick photo.  She covers the whole thing so even though I've not seen every inch of it for years, I can still bring home some goodies.  Gotta love technology!  Now all I have to do is train our dog to sniff out spark plugs.

[STEVE POLLARD]

I'm taking the wife, my youngest son and the Monte Carlo....everyone is excited to go !

Did you have the Eskine there for sale last year? It was black? If so and the same one I may be interested in it I and if not still interested in what you have.

[pkhammer]

This 1916 Studebaker Seven Passenger Touring will be next to our spaces. Not mine but I do hope it finds a loving new owner! C4X 1-2

[dalef62]

I am thinking about bringing a Bell housing for a 1948 Chrysler product 6 cyl. with the Fluid drive transmission.  I had to buy the whole bellhousing, top and bottom to get just the bottom section that I needed.  If anyone has a need for it I can bring it along.  Let me know.

Also have some 41-48 Lincoln, Zepher stuff that I might bring?????  Any interest?
