I don't know about you guys, but I surely spend more time at the swap meets rather than the car show itself. I usually don't even look at the cars in the show, I hit the swap and then head for home. Last week i bought a complete set of NOS dog dish hubcaps for my 66 Chevelle and for a very reasonable price. At the same swap meet I picked up a single NOS 61/62 belair-biscayne dog dish hubcap, would you believe for $1.00 yes (ONE DOLLAR) The day before at another swap meet I bought a steel goodmark cowl induction hood for my 2003 GMC crew cab for $150.00.
that hood usually retails for about $500.00 I already dropped it off at the body shop for paint. I bought so much stuff at the first swap meet that I pulled my truck into the swap area to pick up all of my purchases. I think I left with more than a lot of the swappers had brought to sell. In fact people were confused after I loaded my truck I had stopped to talk to somebody and people started asking how much i wanted for some of the parts, They thought I just pulled in and had not unloaded yet. LOL
