I saw the ad for the upcoming swap meet at Island in march. I still have a ton of random parts mainly for 4th gens and I am debating about going as a vendor. The cost would only be like $50(double space) but I just don't know how many people could potentially attend, as if it would be worth my time or not. First off, to help island with the small fee is pretty much worth it anyway so I'm likely going to go. But for those who have been before, how many people attended in the past? (I know weather will affect it) Is there still a market for 4th gen stuff(stock items) at such swap meets? I also have some full size bronco, Daytona, s10, monte and caddy parts I'd bring too. Stuff would be cheap too. It's either this to try to get rid of it all, or getting a dumpster and tossing it all this spring. If I made even $100 bucks total to cover gas tolls fee and food, I'd be more than happy.

I heard last year's was good. But it's only been 1 year so there's only so much you can lean on

Got any red Camaro panels in good shape? Bumpers, driver fender and door, and black mirrors would make me happy

Yes. Do want. The fact that it was from Adam's car is even better

Do you have any nice black 3rd or 4th gen front seats you’ll be bringing?

There is a very good chance I have one or two. I just haven't been over by my garage in at least 2 months. I do plan on going to the swap meet so I will have to go through things soon.
