Terry Bond Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 It's never too early to start thinking SPRING, Wondering who plans to be at Luray in May? What are you planning to stuff into your truck or trailer? What are you looking for? Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Schramm Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) I am planning on being there some time during the weekend with a friend. Trying to fit in with other commitments at this time. This is the first time I will have been there. Any suggestions? Edited March 2 by Larry Schramm (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkhammer Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) I have my two spaces paid for. I plan to bring an assortment of model T and A Ford parts along with a smattering of early flathead V8 stuff. Maybe a few items from other pre-war makes like some 20's Dodge pieces. -Model T windshields, wheels, running boards, running board tool boxes, grille shell, front axle and steering parts, steering wheels, coil boxes, carburetors, etc... -Model A hood, wheels, bumpers, steering columns, steering wheels, grille shells (really, really nice 1930!), headlights and headlight bars, AA bellhousing, etc.... -Early V8 heads (NOS), distributors, intakes, spare tire cover, '32 headlights/headlight bar, hubcaps, etc. @Larry Schramm Friday is typically better than Saturday. It is a relatively small meet, with 70-80 vendor spaces I think but some good stuff always shows up. I always find some great deals! Several model A and T cars and trucks always show up for sale and even some other brass-era offerings at times. I only live an hour away so I can't make a hotel recommendation.

Dave Henderson Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 A great old time kind of meet that just gets better year after year. It's like those of the good old days with friendly laid back vendors, reasonable prices, and less often seen stuff from out of the murky past with some of it just spread out on a tarp on the ground. Sure hope I can be there again this year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketraider Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 That would probably make a good day trip and entirely off the Interstate. Maybe I can talk my recently retired buddy into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan to go again this year, and will have my own space for the first time. Bringing mainly A and T leftovers and odds and ends, some vintage spark plugs, and a few pieces of old automobilia. The local club cooks up and serves a reasonably priced breakfast and lunch on site, which I enjoy. Nearby Luray Caverns is a nice attraction. They have a small auto museum there, too, which is worth a look. The Luray Days Inn is very convenient. It is an older motel, but clean, functional, and well kept. Can't say as much for the one out on I-81. Edited March 3 by Akstraw added more info (see edit history) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Bond Posted March 3 Author Share Posted March 3 Post some pics of the plugs, or send me a PM. I'm still looking for more for my collection. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Wetherbee Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Planning on being set up next to you again and bringing the same mix, some really decent mascots and emblems along with the T parts and a nice set of E&J type 20 headlights. Also talked a buddy from central PA who has a few cars into coming down and checking out the flea. Looking forward to it! If anyone has any interesting emblems to trade bring-’em on over… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trimacar Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 I plan to be there, not planning to set up a space, like Mr. Hammer only an hour away (in the opposite direction!) so an easy visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdome Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 (edited) I plan to go to Luray as a spectator. About 6 or 7 hr drive for me. Not easy to get to from the north but always worth the trip. I'm also going to Chickasha mid March. About 16hr windshield time. I'm itching to come out of hibernation and search through piles of brass and early rust.

oldcarfudd Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I'm coming on Saturday afternoon, bringing a Model T for the tour following the swap meet. But I'll have spent the prior two days on the Jersey Shore tour with my Curved Dash Oldsmobile, and it will be in the trailer with the T. If anyone there is interested in a CDO, PM me and we can go for a ride. The car is date certified by the Veteran Car Club of Great Britain as a genuine '04, and did the Brighton run with its previous owner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkhammer Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I've got a ton of pre-war headlight lenses I could bring. I am going to list these under parts for sale and see if anybody could use these. I will post brands and sizes once I finish sorting thru them. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Bond Posted March 16 Author Share Posted March 16 Nice assortment. I had several boxes of them years ago, along with copies of info identifying them. Sold the entire bunch at Hershey as one lot at a bargain price. They were pretty heavy to haul around and easily broken. It's something that everyone seems to want to have a few spares for.

Ndnchf Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 I plan to be there Friday. I'll probably bring a couple restored Ford 6v generators and cutouts. I'll likely have them on Wick's table at the back, left corner. I'll be looking for flathead V8 3 brush generator cores and parts. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Bond Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 I've decided to bring a few more of my "Hershey" things out to Luray, I'll have some early 1900s periodicals - Motor Age, Horseless Age, and some teens British Autocar magazines. Will also try to get some watch fobs sorted out and bring an assortment. If anyone else collects early automotive sheet music, I'll have a bundle of duplicate items from my collection also. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank DuVal Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Great. Now I really need to think about buying a tow vehicle. 👍 Maybe those will be there too, along with trailers for sale.🚋😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt G Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 Really nice to see a show titled and focused on "Pre War" since the modern trend is to go to post war parts, cars, paper, and everything else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeke01 Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 (edited) I will be there with some vacuum tanks and parts. Not enough to get a space but I want to sell off the things I don’t need anymore. Four complete tanks and several tops and floats and more. These are larger tanks. Think Hudson ,Packard, Buick.
