I put on the swap meet--it's been every month since I started it 15 years ago!
Haynes ended up selling out; he tried to sell the place with all the inventory, but nobody would buy it, so he crushed it and got what he was asking for the land. It sucks, but he'd told me a couple years ago the classic area had become a museum because everybody came to look at stuff but almost never bought anything.

Send me your email address and I'll put you on our monthly newsletter list.
Eckler's is giving away $10 gift certificates to cruise-in vehicles every month, and we've got two shows per year that feature Eckler's gift certs for vintage trucks. I'm trying to with with truck clubs to get them to come out on those days, too. (which should get the specific truck vendors to come out en masse too).
