Anybody go to the Conroe Swap Meet?

If you did, what did you think of it?

I went on Saturday. It was my first time going and I was a little disappointed. I found some pretty good deals but there was a lot of crap there and there weren't as many vendors as I thought there'd be. But then again, the weather may have had something to do with it.

That's what I was thinking. I'll have to give it another shot.

Did you see that white 67 or 68 with the 454 that was for sale?

Re: Anybody go to the Conroe Swap Meet?

I was thinking about going, it was a rare weekend off from work! I went a few years ago & was dissapointed, but wanted to give it another chance. It was very cold, but the 40% chance of rain kept me from driving 2 hours & not knowing if it was going to be a successful trip. I am planning to go to the Pate Swap Meet in late April though!

It's probably a good thing you didn't go; not worth a two hour trip.

Re: Anybody go to the Conroe Swap Meet?

I went friday and sat., only because i already had my spots paid for. It was the worst one i have been to in over 10 years. They need to do a lot more advertiseing, to get back up to par. I am also ready to go to Pate.
