swap was a little weird. it seemed light, but maybe that was just the spot i was in? i saw a lot of people rolling with big ticket stuff like e-body grilles, b-body chrome, some dashes and gauge setups. lots of people asking on parts and not countering, and virtually nobody buying little 5~10 bits and bobs. mostly people just cruising and eyeballing.

i'm not complaining, sold all three motors i took and a big chunk of other stuff. got to catch up with a bunch of people and shoot the breeze. good day all around!

can't wait for fall!

There are some lazy sellers....
I saw some Dudes that bring a trailer with boxes of dirty stuff, they don't spread the parts out anywhere, don't put price tags on anything either.
Most people are pretty good about making an effort to properly display their parts.
I was looking for a decent rear seat for a Duster along with a carpet kit.
Nothing.
I needed an ash tray for a '70 Charger.
Nothing.
Last Spring there was a guy with two '70 Charger grilles that needed work. I drove a car so I didn't buy. This time?
Nothing.
It is weird to see so many sellers putting out parts to cars that I don't own with parts that I didn't need.
I still enjoyed browsing the swap.
