What is the date of the Kalamazoo swap meet

Steve Sturim · 01-31-2022, 02:37 PM

Friday February 4, Saturday February 5. Friday 2-6pm, Saturday 8-3pm.

Glad you verified that because it seems a bit confusing depending on where you look on the internet. I'm there Friday, who's going?

I don’t have a dog in this hunt but…..
I have a buddy going and it’s February not March
At least that was what I understood from him!!

Steve Sturim · 01-31-2022, 03:57 PM

OOOOOPPS, Yes it is February, not March.

Ice and sometimes will greet you. Tough drive from AZ.

Look out for my gal down Kalamazoo.

John Dayhuff · 02-05-2022, 05:20 AM

I was there Friday right after it opened, only about 2/3's full of vendors I'd say but still worth the $7. Picked up a few goodies and spent three hours there just looking at all the great stuff that was there. Can't wait for next years.

John Dayhuff · 02-07-2022, 05:23 PM

Soooo......did anyone else go to the swap meet and pick up anything good? Lets see and hear your story's and thoughts about this years show.

John Dayhuff · 02-09-2022, 09:19 PM

Hmm.......I must have been the only one there and here. Crickets....
Anything?

John Dayhuff · 02-11-2022, 03:08 PM

You guys seem to be uptight about something? I guess some things are better left unsaid? Sad but true?

Steve Sturim · 02-11-2022, 04:31 PM

I was there Friday and Saturday selling and buying, sales were good even though the crowd was down, and I bought quit a bit of stuff.

John Dayhuff · 02-12-2022, 05:08 AM

Thats a good point, it seemed like what with the crowd being as thin as it was that the vendors had more to choose from? I almost got a booth (or two or three) as I have a lot of parts, books and manuals......, I need to sell but I wasn't sure if I'd sell enough to cover the booth cost/time off work etc... so I chickened out this time. I'll be at Gilmore's model A days for sure but just one day is all(Saturday). I talked to Glenn from Hole in the Wall Ford parts for a minute and thought perhaps he might be interested in everything as a package deal? I guess time will tell.

Model A Day at the Gilmore has a great swap meet.

John Dayhuff · 02-12-2022, 07:22 PM

Yes it does and I sold a lot of parts there last year. We will do it again this year with even more stuff, it all has to go. Lots of goodies for everyone.

SonicRaT · 02-12-2022, 07:42 PM

Are there any other decent meets in this region? I can't ever seem to find an updated or consistent calendar so I don't often know what's going on around these parts. Is Model A Day's the event that happens in September?
