What did you buy at the swap meet?
I picked up a set of heads for my blue oval project. $220 bucks and they were rebuilt and cleaned up. Bought it from a guy who runs a machine shop. He gave me his card and he seemed like a really nice guy. Big Ed's Auto./Machine, ASE certified engine machinist. He's right in edison, so I figure if I ever need to get anything amchined, I'll just go there. Thats the only thing I bought, but I got a badass sunburn for free!
Lets here what everyone else picked up. (hopefully no STD's  )

I scored a pair of Vortec heads off a '98 Tahoe (complete with pushrods, rockers, and exhaust manifolds) - gave the guy $150 and a pair of G-body front lower A-arms.  I also got new upper and lower door seals for the '88 SS from a Soffseal vendor. Not a bad day today!

I found alot of things I could have used for my old Trans Am, but nothing for my camaro.
All the people with stock 16' 4th gen wheels wanted too much.

I didn't even make it to the show/swap meet. Worked on the dock, worked on the boat, worked on the 4Runner, worked on a few beers.  I was too tired to get up early to head down today, but I also figured that if I saw some nice 1st and 2nd gen Camaros it would make me want to buy something. But at least my boat is in the water for the season already! Glad I didn't sell it back in the fall!
