Not to much for swap meets in Maine, especially with Mopar parts. Hotkars.com has a list of shows, cruises, etc. in Maine/NH.
Darling's Chrysler in Augusta has a Mopar show in Sept.. NE Dragway has had an all Mopar day, not sure when this year- they have changed it a few times. Lots of Mainers go. The New England guys over on Moparts.com have the annual summer cruise happening June 11. Starts in Hampton Beach NH and goes from there. Several Maine folks go including myself.
Isn't it, Good to see so many Mainahs on heah? I grew up on the coast, been in Michigan for a long time.

Greene, Me 1969 SBee 383/727/3:23SG
I’m from the Bangor area.
My summer driver:
1967 Dart GT, 225/6, oversized valves, ported, 9.5 cr., big cam, Clifford headers & intake, duel exhaust, Holley 390, electronic ignition, 2400 stall converter, 8 ¾” Suregrip 3.55:1, 0.940" torsion bars, 6 leaf rear springs, sub frame connectors, KH front disk – 10” rear drums, tubular UCA, 1 1/4” sway bar.
This winter I have an engine compartment rewire project under way, grill is off for buffing and painting, new windshield gasket to be installed, and perhaps a 904 freshening.

wjajr you must be the guy that also has the lebaron that I ran into at Springfield....hopefully I am right.... loving all the mopars on here from our little state
Yup, thats me.
The Dart had a last minute new electronic voltage regulator meltdown that morning, and people were waiting in the driveway to head up to Springfield, so I just took the K Car rather than frig with the electrical repair.
I got the grill all slicked up and installed, wiring project done, trunk detail completed, and rebuilt tail light housings including new gaskets.
Now I think I’ll pull the transmission to replace the front clutch pack, and freshen up its internals.
First car show of the year is in Waldoboro at the high school first Sunday of May: http://cruisemaine.net/cgi-bin/calendar.pl?month=5&view=Event&event_id=463
It’s a big show.
