Re: Pate swap meet
My dad will be out there the entire time. I plan on coming out on saturday. I'm hoping i can get some things out of storage to let my dad try and sell. I need to get rid of the stuff to pay for the big block.

Re: Pate swap meet
Very excited about this swap even if we will be camped near some Looziana folks. I took the whole week off. Planning on getting out there with Shane and Melissa and our bunch Wednesday.

Re: Pate swap meet
I've been going to the annual Pate swap meet for many years. it's kind of a spring ritual.
It was even better when it was held at the old Pate Museum of transportation. I have fond memories of tromping around on a couple hundred acres of ankle deep mud, in the cold rain, while dragging parts behind me and looking for hidden treasures. You gotta be a car guy to understand .

Re: Pate swap meet
You are correct. I enjoyed it more when it was at the Pate Museum. The walk wasn't as easy, but the trees made it cooler when it wasn't muddy or dusty.

Re: Pate swap meet
Come to the get together Friday night, I may have a PS box for you. We'll have to get the collective brain thrust to verify it's identity but it could be worth a great deal for you.

Re: Pate swap meet
Besides my favorite flavor (cold), are there any preferences? Non preferences? Looking forward to seeing everyone at 7p on Friday night, somewhere around Shanes/Kevins/Wynnes proximity. Watch for the multi color 72K20 with a loaded cooler in the back! Kevin/Shane/Wynee, could you guys PM me with cell numbers in case I need assistance? Many thanks, Curt

Re: Pate swap meet
I am planning to go out to TMS on Saturday to just have a look around. My truck is still in Iowa so I have no idea what I need.
Been years since I went to the Pate Swapmeet, should be fun. |
