Default Hershey report

The most Model A Fenders I've ever seen here! Nice ones!
What's missing Carbs, water pumps , Starters
It's 8pm and people are still setting up.
Light rain now, storms tonight. Pretty tomorrow!!!

Biggest batch of T parts I've ever seen before!

Someone NEEDS to buy the leatherback project in the Orange field, southwest corner. Wish I needed a Ford.

Keep your eyes open for some 28-29 truck/ pickup mirrors. Adding a passenger side mirror on the delivery, so need 2 with plateable outer rims. Rod

I happen to have a pair of the long Express Running Boards, but they are, not particulary, for sale. They are serving as shelving in my garage.
I might trade them for something extra nice. ????

If I can get to Hershey next year, my road trip will into LA, then Bonneville speed week, then a lazy couple of months touring across to the swap, then the entire route 66 home.

Just wish I could bring my camper over to do the trip.

With the price of motels during Hershey it might be cheaper to bring the camper even from Australia. Rod

across the river rooms were $89 a night.
The barn find coupe is in the field in front of the giant center. Down the row from the tail light guy. $8500. saw it this evening. There's a few open spaces but I would say this place is packed. Looks like the fenders doubled over night....there everywhere.
$200 buys a nice fender that needs a little work. Flat head stuff moves fast!
plenty of tires and wheels.
No empty wagons everybody I see has bought something. Weather for tomorrow cool in the Am. But a nice dry day. Friday chance of showers.
Walking traffic was heavy most of the day here in the orange field.

What a perfect day-not really Hershey weather-it was mild and sunny!. I started walking at 8:50 AM and stopped at 4:00PM. I sat down once-to get my sandwich out of my backpack. I was able to cover almost every aisle-stopped and look at things I was interested in, but didn't look anybody up. There are some nice cars and some nice stuff-and a whole lot of things that some old folks think are made of solid gold!
All in all a great day and I'll be back Saturday for the judging. Meanwhile I have to go to work tomorrow.
