I have to say I got a KILLER deal in set of tires for my truck. As some of you know, I have a 72' swb 4x4 and my tires are slick. I mean you can see the air in them. Well I have been putting off buying tires for to long. I was going to look for some there and I ran across a guy selling some FORD wheels and like new UNIROYAL tires (31x10.50's). Well after some back and forth price talk, I brought home the wheels and tires for $80. WOOHOO!! Also, If anyone reads this before the show is over. There is a guy in the RED field that has the Eagle Alloy 15x8 6 lug wheels for $250 a set complete but they are blems. I started to buy a set for my truck but that would be like putting sugar on sh*t. Wes.

Yes, I had an excellent time!!! I almost bought some new tires for my tacoma, but the place was so big, I forgot were he was at! I got new valve covers, air cleaner, spark plug wire holders-all of them with the flame pattern. Met Tim Christian, gave me a deal for some emblems I have been looking for, for about 3 years there the front motor emblem that says 454, and also some new weatherstripping. thought I did alright. Could have spend about 3g easy, but I know what I would have heard from the wife.
drove back all night long, got back in at around 5am, should go to sleep, but why?
hope everyone else that went got some deals.
