Pics I took today at the Portland Swap Meet - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Sinisterspeed · 04-05-2009, 01:12 AM

While walking around today I was stapping pictures here and there. Mostly of 67-72 stuff. However there are a few other things in there I thought were interesting.

This was the first thing that cought my eye. A pretty nice flat bed.

This thing was just stupid.. So ugly I had to take a picture or nobody would believe me when I told em what some idiot wanted 30k for.

Sinisterspeed · 04-05-2009, 01:17 AM

This Black SWB was pretty nice. Many were nicer for the 20k or so he wanted for it.

This thing was pretty cool. I don't remember the price on it.

Sinisterspeed · 04-05-2009, 01:23 AM

Hard to see this one through all the people but. I thought this was the best deal I saw all day. Although way out of my range it should sell for sure.

I know i had some shots clear of the people ill edit this if I find em.

If I remember correctly they were asking 47k for this 1957 Belair Conv. Very Very clean car!

This was by far my favorite truck of the day. Tons of work done on it.
Bed grafted to the cab.
Pancaked hood
2in chop
doors stretched 5.5in
5 degree angle on the back of the bed.

he wanted 38k for it.

Sinisterspeed · 04-05-2009, 01:31 AM

Yes, I know its the enemy.. LOL but it was pretty nice.. I kinda like these ones for some reason. I don't remember what he wanted for it.. I wasn't that interested. Hell hasn't frozen over yet.

Pretty clean 57 TF truck. Guy wanted 21500 for it. Lots of options for me to look at for ideas for my 57.

This one was SUPER clean. It was my favorite realistic truck at 15k i think.

Sinisterspeed · 04-05-2009, 01:33 AM

Couple more of the the green stepper...

I like em, but do they all have to be red?

Sinisterspeed · 04-05-2009, 01:36 AM

Couple more of the 57

I love these cars too.. I think this one is out of my price range however...

Sinisterspeed · 04-05-2009, 01:39 AM

If only I had more money then time this would have gone home with me..

Something about this one just bugs me.

Another un-finished project.. Insane looking motor.

This concludes our picture sharing for the day. Please tip your waitress on your way out.

Great photos.
Gotta love those four eye trucks

OARNGESI · 04-05-2009, 06:36 AM

Nice pics i think that black truck with the stretched cab was on ebay a while back

**Palf70Step** · 04-05-2009, 07:30 AM

Nice shots. Looked like a cool place to be for sure!!

DtownSteve · 04-05-2009, 07:47 AM

Looks like a ton of fun. I probably would have impulse-bought that flatbed, though!

72BlckButy · 04-05-2009, 09:51 AM

So you didn't buy the flat bed?

Great pics!

FRENCHBLUE72 · 04-05-2009, 09:52 AM

Did you score any deals on parts? I was gonna go but had to work..

**FleetsidePaul** · 04-05-2009, 10:57 AM

That flatbed is a deal....so is the Green stepside, you could get both for under 20 grand.

I bet thats where he got it. I asked him about something on the truck but he said he bought it that way.... I wasn't as impressed once he said that.. I thought great another guy with to much money... LOL

Deals... ehh not really. I bought some door seals ($50) and window felts ($85) I needed to get my cab back together. I had to pic them up right when they were closing. I thought the guy was kind of a jerk but I bought em real quick and got one the road.

There is a soft spot for em my my heart too. Although in a 2wd I lean twords the chev. and in a 4wd I like the 4 eyes

Tons of stuff out there. I got about half way through it. We arrived at about 9am and walks till 5pm straight. God Im sore today.
More cars were sold this year then I have seen in previous years. Probably cause alot of people have come back to earth on their prices. There was a ton of 67-72 stuff there this year. Seemed like every other booth or stall had something for em. Found a guy selling Fenders for 10 bucks, Core support for 25 and a NOS fan shroud for 50. Some good deals but I didn't need any of. (I already have extras). Keep in mind I still saw people trying to get 225 from a 67 front fender that still needed work.

Sinisterspeed · 04-05-2009, 12:17 PM

Why is there no edit button anymore? After I reread it, I needed to fix some errors but not edit button... ehh. Hopefully you guys get the jist of it dispite the mispellings.
