how was your englishtown swap meet,
the only thing good out of the meet for me was i sold my blue 91 formula 350 tpi car, but as far as parts went only sold small stuff, came home with 9 sets of wheels with tires and 6 sets of just rims,
i did get parts for the elcamaro, soon to be back on the road again, see what happens on e-bay and april swap meet, so did anyone find what they were looking for? or do good selling off what they did not want |
I found a couple good deals; got a license plate from Italy for $10, and a set of socket holder trees for $3. Also bought a couple bags of work gloves and zipties. I was hoping to find a set of GTA hood vents for my Cherokee but didn't come across anyone with a full set; one guy had one and that was it. Ted, you got any extras around?
|
Only thing I see on the net is the whole hood.

Well, if I could get a whole hood like that for cheap I'd take it!
|
i got some shiny new headlights, really makes a difference on the car.
|
do i dare ask what an Elcamaro is? is that a elcamino with a camaro front end??

I got some good deals Friday. Picked up a nice set of Devilbis paint guns for about 1/2 the price of new! That was my big bargan. a set of 1/2" drive sockets, was missing a few, but for the price it was worth adding a few more to the tool box. Couple thousand zip ties (can never have enough zip ties) HD band clamps. And a cheap-o 5lb slide hammer for pulling seals.
And some real sore feet! Seemed to be less vendors then normal, but maybe the weather kept them away Friday? But there also seemed to be allot less of the people selling matchbox cars and beanie baby crap! God I hate this stands!!!!! Some DRUNK guy there tried to sell me a partial engine! he he he, it was missing 4 cylinders! |

Jon, let me know if those vents happen to fall into your pocket. :) I could use both sets, and any drip tray/moldings underneath if they're attached with anything.
|

That's a cool concept, but it sounds ugly as hell. No offense, man. I think it might be cool, but its success would definitely be in the execution. Do you have pics? |
i didnt make it to the swapmeet :(
ted's elcamaro actualy looks pretty cool |
The swap meet was pretty good. I hung out at Ted's spot and then walked around looking at cars and parts.
|
anything i saw that was the least bit interesting the person selling thought was made of gold. prices at e-town have gotten out of control the last few years.
|
as of now the car is an ugly mess , going to pick up 2 rot free doors and get the car edged in not sure what color yet, its going to be a work in progress car,

From his expression I don't think your buddy liked it when I asked where the other 1/2 of the motor was. :lol: |

Ever since I had my accident, I started searching for parts. I needed the front bumper, and driver-side fender. Also I needed the passenger side one as well because the one now has a rust hole and I don't need that before it gets painted in the winter. I had found a few donor cars, but nothing good. So Sunday I couldn't go because it was my b-day, but I gave my friend $200 in case he found anything, well, he found a guy selling the front bumper and 2 front fenders for my '83 Z-28, guy was selling them for $250, but my friend talked him down to the $200, so now my baby will finally get her long-awaited face-lift. Can't wait. Later, Jeff.

let me guess the parts are white/light tan and gold, that kid gave up on his car,
|
i didnt sell much of anything, bought a few things for my trailer, tried to buy a 99 ls1 shortblock but it was sold when i went back
