Posted - 11/12/2024 : 08:25:11 Spring is a better model show, it is competitive and awards are given out in each class. The tables are full.
The vendor side of the floor was as big as ever. I had one model kit in my mind to find in the vendor area, and got it!! It's a Model T Delivery Van. The vendor was trying to empty his display at the end of the day, and sold it to me for 50% off, $16 cut to $8.
A friend of mine was interested in a '62 Dodge Dart (the full-size body in that year) if I found one. It's only been done by Johan, to my knowledge. I wasn't there early enough, a vendor had one that sold early in the morning. $175 !!!!! I wouldn't have gone that high, even if I was spending his money not mine. (I've seen them in the range of $80-100 elsewhere this year)

Posted - 11/12/2024 : 00:21:10 Yep, I was there from about 12:30 to when they closed at 3:00. Had my green Ford shirt on, but the place is so big I guess it wasn't enough to pick me up in the crowd.
I didn't notice any model(s) on the tables with your name on the entrant sheets. Did you not display anything?
For those of you who have not attended that show venue, the model show and swap meet is in a community college facility that they could play a football game in. It's huge! With a parking area outside to match.
