Some of these items/cars seem to keep turning up at meet after meet. I looked at a complete BDS blower with carbs at the Chemekata College swap meet last year, and I've seen it at 3-4 since then. I'm guessing the seller is stuck on his price of $3,000 and it will continue to get hauled to meets until he decides to let it go for a little less.

I've got some I should sell, but I never seem to get around to it. I've got a stall at the Expo for April, so might finally get some of it cleared out.

we got a spot for a car for sale. space is going to be a hot thing since alot of it is going to be taken by that circus show. and the track is going to be a lot less hairy with no riding bikes or anything now.

Well I'm putting the Suburban in my for sale spot, but since I don't want to sell it I'll put a price so high people will think I've lost my mind! I really want the early entry and a place to stash parts I buy, plus drive in and out. This serves all that, and I can keep my lunch and drinks in it too!
If by chance somebody is stupid enough to actually want to buy it I'll tell them it's sold.
I think bicycles are still OK, but nothing motorized once the show opens, and that's great by me! Almost got run over several times last year!

Talked to the painter today and he's going to take pictures for me as it progresses. That way I wont have to go out to Beaver Creek much. I'll probably stop by later next week when there's plenty of progress. They were on it after 1:30am. last night, since his helper works another day job and helps after work.
