The place was packed. Decent car show, lots of vendors, only car related items allowed. No lawn mowers, saw folks walking out with items. Chassis cert was going on and extended tech cards. All in all great first swap meet event. There were deals I didn't get anything I was looking for a trunk lid for my 57 Chevy 210. However did get a good lead on who has some.

Melissa was blown away by the attendance and had 200 or so vendors I think I saw.

The staging lanes were used for chassis cert and extended tech inspection. They were full all morning and thinned out when I left. The pits were where all the swap meet vendors were. The rest of the pits (grass side) was the car show and buyers parking. No room for parking race cars/rigs even of they wanted to do so.

I am glad to hear that this went well.
I was stuck at work that day all day and unable to take off.
