You do need a new display board. It was sagging in the middle from all the weight. Probably a 1000 pounds of iron on that board.

Rain and partical board never again. Had a lot of praise though and not one thing negative so the old parts must work out.

He knows... That one is particle board. Lucky it didn't fall apart with the rain and humidity. Need plywood like the other one.

Good to meet you Matt. I stood there talking to you for a while before someone called you "Matt" and I put 2 and 2 together. I don't know why but I expected you to be much older. LOL

Well my bet would be that if there is a blockage in the line it’s the result of something gone south in the tank. Sorry

Both the fuel line to engine compartment and the fuel tank (no cap) were open to the air for 3 decades. Suppose either would be easily the issue. I wish I had dropped it before putting 5 gallons of gas in it. Sometimes being in a hurry for no reason, slows you down longer that if just doing what you know you should have in the beginning.

Turned it off , the only one that called was the wife every 15 min or so turned it off Friday. Last year was using mitches number for people there to get back to me and it was off the hook.

That would explain why we couldnt get through the one time I tried
 
Just a quick aside, got my lease renewed for another year, a big relief because I love this quiet secluded place and pretty much impossible to find at a rent I can afford. So happy and I want to bring my Mom up here to visit again.

You really need 2 spaces. Then horseshoe your stuff so they walk between the big stuff to get to a massive wall of distributers. Maybee a stepped table or racks to set them up vertically like a lollipop tree... Just need to figure out a way to make something that breaks down flat so it's not too bulky to move and doesn't take up so much space hauling it.

Did you see the guy on the other side of the swap meet advertising his distributor rebuilding service? All he had was a chalk board, said “we rebuild distributors cheaper than the other guy but with new parts, not 50 yea old junk”?
I meant to take a picture of it cause I think it’s the guy trying to snipe hoppy. Had nothing on display but that sign and few kiddie toys

Good thing I didn't see him.
Try to build business by putting the other guy down. That's bullsh-t
First of all, there aint that many folks doing this stuff so there's plenty of room. Second of all you take a different angle - focus on the service. and then there's even less overlap. Or do it like Steer and Gear and Firm Feel, They just do their thing and basically ignore each other. No problem.

Just some pine - be lighter and survive getting drenched. Anyone stock 'barn siding' or 'roof boards' in 5/4 or 4/4 with just the top surfaced?

Probably time for new lines. My 66 Dart tank looked like a cave inside with stalactites of rust even after cleaning. Time for a new tank and lines. I did that about 15 years ago with no issues since.

The other one is just thin plywood and holding up great. Exterior plywood or even painted interior will hold up a long time as long as it is not saturated and left in direct sun. That particle board crap is like a sponge though.
