Guest Hal Davis (MODEL A HAL) Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Is it mostly original, mostly hot rod, or a good mix? Any pre-war stuff there? How does it compare to Moultrie?
brad54 Posted December 1, 2006 Author Posted December 1, 2006 Moultrie is many times bigger. My show is a once-a-month deal, every month, so I don't have the big "professional" vendors that hit the regional circuit. Yet. I've been doing it for two years, and it grows a little bigger each month.There is a good mix of parts--hot rod, resto, muscle car, early stuff and race parts.Last month I had two new tool vendors there, and there's almost always a lady who sells shop uniform clothes (pants, shirts and shop jackets). She does a KILLER business!You pays your money, you takes your chances!But I'll tell you this, too: my daily driver is a '62 Suburban: you don't typically see a bunch of stuff for '60-'66 Chevy trucks at a swap meet. I've gotten a rust free front fender, original steel wheels, and a pair of doors. Some of the stuff was there that day, some of it was at a guys house who I struck up a conversation wtih. Never underestimate the power of networking at a swap meet!Brad
