3 days ?? Leave at 6 pm the night before, get there early, nap for a while in the truck, walk the swap, load any treasures I buy and beat feet home by 12 pm...
Actually, I'm starting to get a little on the grey side for those hours anymore, but, I'd still try it. 5 yrs ago, I drove straight thru from San Antonio home and 4 yrs ago, from Ocala straight home. That same yr, I drove to Buffalo, NY and back in 42 hours for an NOS Camaro fender.

LOL...Mitch,is this you?

No pills, but I've always had cars to play with and one of the first Aurora road race sets in the early 60's.

Well, I'm only five hours from Monticello Iowa. I'll try to remember about the swap in 2024.

Well. my Sunday venture turned out better than most at the VCCA meet in Glendale Az. Scored 5 1968 only style derbies for Chevrolet rally wheel. it gave me hope for the next swap meet

Sounds cool. What is the difference from the '69 ?
I didn't think to ask if you would mind watching for a '67 disc brake center. One of the set I got from Anthony is a little rough.

The outer edge of the the dish part is less defined. It's discussed in the 1968 NCRS books....Joe

This was from yesterday at Stafford Springs:

I thought that vette looked familiar thems my old stomping grounds at stafford. Must be a local car. Haven’t been to stafford in about 10 years though. Maybe I need to visit again .
