Re: New member. Swap meet.

Of all the swap meets, large and small, that I have been to I never knew if it was worth going until I was leaving. So far they have all been worth going. But that's because they are yet another way to enjoy being involved with old trucks, even if I never bought a part. You don't know unless you go.

Re: New member. Swap meet.

Yes you are right. I just wounded what they might have for parts. Yes can get a lot of information from talking to people. Thanks for the reply.

Re: New member. Swap meet.

Hey Tom ! To the board !!!

I can't speak for that particular swap meet, but in general I'm finding very little for good parts for 67-72 trucks. Most everything is gone from the salvage yards and now the swap meets are drying up. Your best bet is this board, there's lots of members down south & out west selling parts, and many are willing to ship. Good luck with your project !

Yes I know probably should look online. But I will get to meet some people that have been doing stuff. Get some input.

I agree with Tim, you may or may not find parts. But you will meet people to network with, networking pays off. Have fun my friend and leave your shyness in the parking lot.
