I had a great time,made some ca$h,and got rid of a bunch of stuff! Thursday I bumped into Bo from Texas,and reintroduced myself.Saw some other people from last year ,but CRS is keeping me from remembering names. Ran into the Kowakski brothers .Set up Jim Turners spot and my own,which was 4 truck loads big. Sold a few things. Friday was a big selling day.Lee D,Debbie and the niece all showed up. Some guy with a beard and shiney whistle pretties stopped buy to deliver some goodies for the 65.Boy did I feel silly not recognising the King of Chrome, Jerry Forrester! That face fur really threw me! Dusty Bob stopped by and introduced himself,and bought a few things. His friend from Fly By Night Interiors was there too.Man he has some NICE things. John P and Nate were all over the swapmeet. Never seen two guys happier to scarf up some bargins AND find the parts they really needed. I got to meet Mel Snow too.She is really nice. BS'ed with Dan Wisniewski and his father.Their relation owns Ziffles BBQ in Fort Wayne. Really good eats! Ed George stopped by the spot and picked up some parts. He has a BAD R series 64! Or is it a 65? Either way its sweet! Met T-BOLT today too. Saturday was the arrival of better late than never Turner!!! I am just teasing you JIm! I had a great time hanging out and BS ing with you! Got to talk with the Myers today. Bob Palma stopped in to tease me about the Mertz thing.Really,he is a nice guy! Jim Kraak (hope I spelled that right!)-came buy to check out the parts selection. OCF and Jeff Rice,I really missed you guys this year!!! Hope you can make it next year. It was really nice to see all the guys from the NG,and all those people you only see at Stude functions. I learned a few things about Stude stuff too,so it really was a blast this weekend. Sorry if I forgot to mention anyone,I am kinda tired. Hope everyone had a safe trip home and that we can do it again next year!!!!!!!!!
