Puyallup Washington swap meet - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ron · 02-13-2006, 01:33 AM

I heard the swap meet will be this weekend, Any of you been there? Would this be a good place to sell my truck? Good time to meet some board members? Thanks

*bskylerj* · 02-13-2006, 01:36 AM

I think today was the last day. What are you selling. It would of been good. There is also the Portland swap meet. It is normally a big one.

stllookn · 02-13-2006, 01:37 AM

Early Bird meet is a great one for our trucks. There will be some members there too. There are three swap meets in a row at the Puyallup Fairgrounds

I could be wrong but I think today was the last day for the Monroe swap meet.

*bskylerj* · 02-13-2006, 02:12 AM

I went back to the N.W. section and they show the puyallup was this last weekend. Here is a link. I was bumbed as I could not get there this weekend.

Ron, My bad. There was one this weekend but the earlybird is next weekend. I am noit sure why they do 2 in a row. Sorry for the confusion.

Livrat · 02-13-2006, 09:52 AM

Feb 11 - 12 was the Corvette and High Performance swap meet.. its the first one of the year and a good one..

Feb 18 - 19 is the Early Bird swap meet ... still a good one.. but has more antiques and older automobile stuff

Mar 12 is the 4X4 off road and high performace swap meet.. good one for truck stuff... put on by the Moonshiners jeep club..

Mar 18 - 19 The almost spring swap meet.. put on by the Model A club.

April 7 - 9 is the BIG ONE in Portland Oregon.. takes you three days to see it all...

If the Early Bird meet is ok for selling the 67, I'll be there. Lets meet up!

Bob Moore · 02-13-2006, 12:52 PM

While it's called the Early Bird and put on by the Model T Club, it is still a GREAT place for truck parts.

4 of us met this weekend at the BLUE gate @ 2:00 Saturday. Let's set the same time and location for this coming Saturday.

See you there - Bob

Here is the website for the Puyallup fairgrounds.

**PICKMUP** · 02-13-2006, 04:24 PM

There were some nice trucks for sale there. Here are a couple pics.

**PICKMUP** · 02-13-2006, 04:30 PM

There were a couple of suburbans too. The nice trucks were price $15K-20K+.

Someone explain/teach me how to post words on each pic and I can list prices and a few details...

*Billla* · 02-13-2006, 04:56 PM

Anybody want to share their big score from the meet? I couldn't go...was priming parts

stllookn · 02-13-2006, 05:21 PM

A gallon jug of McGuires car wash for $5.00...no tax! Bob Moore scored an NOS '68 hubcap for about $12! He just had to show it to me...I could have done without that...LOL! The Early Bird is the one for truck parts. That black and green blazer/pickup was really nice! Thanks for the pictures, Frank!

leadfoot067 · 02-13-2006, 06:09 PM

i scored nuthing...i had a pile of cash in hand...for the right parts but didnt find them...

*bskylerj* · 02-13-2006, 06:25 PM

Were you buying or selling Frank? What are you looking for leadfoot067? Who is all going this weekend?

**PICKMUP** · 02-13-2006, 09:48 PM

I never sell at swap meets. I don't like to drag my good parts around, and I don't want to drag my old greasy stuff out and sit with it all day.
I like to go see the guys, trucks and just hang out...and like leadfoot67, I didn't score a thing.
Let's face it, I am actually lazy!

Now how do I put words on each picture like some of you have figured out how to do?????????????????????

Castiron9 · 02-13-2006, 10:04 PM

Hey Frank, heres how you do it:

put the IMG code for the picture"

{img} your image {img}
what you want to say

{img} your image {img}
what you want to say

{img} your image {img}
what you want to say

Heres an example:

Here is my orange dually:

Here is my longhorn at work:

And here are my towhooks:

Hope this helps

redneckdds · 02-13-2006, 10:11 PM

nice pics... what do you know about that green and black truck? I love that stance! It would be nice to find out what needs to be done to get that look.

Bryan , looks like i'll be back from Cali friday , so i'm thinking of staying over in Seattle and going sat.a.m. Are you going to make it over for this one ???

Ron · 02-13-2006, 10:55 PM

So..is the Early Bird meet a good place to expose the 67 that I want to sell or was the last weekend meet better? I'm not really 100% ready to show it but close enough. I could get out of Zillah about 7:00 and be there at 10:00. It's for Sat and Sun right?

I'm not a swap meet guy but this might be fun.

This is the one I want to sell.

**PICKMUP** · 02-14-2006, 01:16 AM

Castiron9---never mind all this computer crap, where did you get those cool tow hooks???

Thanks for the instructions...let's see if I can screw those up now.

bouncytruck · 02-14-2006, 01:37 AM

The Early-Bird swap is as good as any to try and sell your truck. Ya might try listing it on Craigslist.org in the mean time. There are listings for Seattle and Spokane.

lazygaurd · 02-14-2006, 01:55 AM

Castiron9, I like the 1 ton as well. What is the wheel base on the old girl? That wouldn't be a tilt deck by chance.
