I'm planning on it Sat.

I will be there, Probably Sat....My girlfriend just moved here from L.A. 6 mos. ago, I have taken her to the junk yard, on a 3 hour wild goose chase for a project, to Teeitups for what she said was "Rusty parts?" she handled it all with a smile a really big smile....if she can handle the swap meet and a car show or two, I am marrying her!!!:lol:

I'll be there!! with no money mind you! haha

Im planning on going. Going to sell some parts. Driving the Bronze 72 3/4t 4x4 with the hope of getting some interest in the truck!! I dont expect to see much selling though

Joe please don't sell my parts, been out of town. Will be out of town again this weekend also. Would like to be there.

Andrew, I was not planning to sell anything you have asked about. Its safe here untill you get some free time. If you buy the Bronze truck you can have the parts for free!!!

I'm headed to Sioux City, Neb to get a 72 BB Longhorn I bought so I'll be missing it this year:waah:

You know if I had a place for it I would. I may have to let another go here soon, I have to many cars in the drive way according to the HOA. :) I might have to come by for a pre-sale.

I'll be there!! with no money mind you! haha

I am going with him!,(He can't borrow money from me! My wife will have it!) Please Chevy boys, bring the stuff! Looking for a sandalwood colored steering wheel....still!

I,ll be there. We have a booth reserved but they don't send you anything ahead of time anymore to give a number. Look for a 58 stepside. Medium blue. Stop buy & say hy. George is the name. :mm:

I might go Saturday morning as a pennyless browser

I might go, not sure yet.

and it may actually be sunny? remember last year, guys??!!! snow and 30 mph wind....

I sure hope its nice out, I went and just looked around last year, I couldnt feel my face when I got back in my truck! LOL..

As long as the weather is nice I should be there selling some small stuff. Ill be driving this Bronze truck, stop and say HI.

Joe,
pm me your asking price on that bronze lwb. pleeeeez.

I might know someone whose in the market.... maybe. no it's not me! haha

I will be there... and from the look of the forecast so will nice weather. Anything is better than last year... sheesh!

No list of parts you will be taking Joe? :D

If I was at a different point right now... I would definitely consider the '72, that thing is beautiful!

I wish I could make it but I am sure I will make one event to meet up with you guys.

The guys on the HAMB said the Woodlands lost their gaming license and had to shut down. Doesn't bother me any. Now its like 40 miles closer to home! :) Comparing the two parking lots using google earth, worlds of fun parking lot probably has just as many spaces. I wouldn't miss it!

Justin, give me a call if/when you make it up there.

I think we're going to have a mini board meet this weekend. :D

Look for the Genuine Chevy GMC Truck Club banner. The club will be there selling and buying like there is no tomorrow. Always welcome truckers.

we'll be up there at a crack of dawn. starts at 6:00am!!

Doug, Ill save you a whole box of junk. Just so you dont miss out on anything!!!

Joe, your so kind! A whole box of junk, just for me?! YES!

Joe, your so kind! A whole box of junk, just for me?! YES!

:lol::lol:

I should be there on Sat wandering around aimlessly with my father in law. :)

If the weather's nice, I'll be wearing my Norwood board meet shirt.
Justin

You guy's live to close... I would have to leave at 3:30 to make it there by 6:00 am. :lol:

back to the top...

OK,... who got all the deals?

Big fat zero here, unless you count a couple hotwheels.

Looked like there were some to be had just not what I was looking for.

One thing I should have went back for was a 55-56 GMC hood ($50 i think), but didn't need it. It was just cool and you don't see them that often.

Nothing found here... :(

And Jared, I turned on my phone this morning and guess what I had... a message from you. :crazy:

My phone never even rang! Don't you just love cell phones.

There was a great turnout of vendors, and I was like 20 minutes late in walking away with a free 250. After we left the meet we ran over to Classic Parts and picked up a few things.

Ran into tcb-1, bigdon-70blazer, joesjunk, and had a message from GRIMSS.

Anyone else locate anything?

I was pretty disappointed, it looked like a rumage sale instead of a swap meet...and the prices were stupid, in my opinion of course. I did see a few deals though, and it was pretty early for me to be bargain shopping? I did notice alot of people "not" carrying things....my girl bought an Indian belt buckle that was pretty cool!

No prob. As I was trying to get to the parking lot tcb-1 spotted me.

Kind of glad I didn't find anything, last week I ordered my IFS from Scott's.

I did seem to notice a lot of junk around the area, but I guess times are tough...

What did everyone think of the new location?

I didn't like it as much. Kind of felt like I was jumping around missing stuff.

I thought it was strange that WOF was open, is it me or is it pretty early in the year to be riding Rollercoasters? I liked that it was 10 minutes from my house, and Looks like it was a good turnout? I mainly go to support the Shriners, I am a big fan of Fez's

I did pretty good selling parts, lots better than I thought!! Got a few people interetsed in the truck, one very serious.

I think there was a great turnout of people and lots of vendors, just nothing there that I needed so I left empty handed.

got a nice dwell meter and a perfect T3 headlight Nate brought over for me from lolife99 (thanks Keith!).

My brother Don (bigdon-70blazer) finally met Nate and Joe.

Sorry Joe, I think Don talked your ear off! have you sold the bronze truck to the father/son you told me about?

Doug, The son bought the truck today. It was sad to see it go, but I did build it to sell. It went to a good home though.

Glad to hear that you sold it Joe, and Doug/Don it was great seeing you guys again.

I'll be in touch the next time I'm down south Don. :D
