Re: Hershey report
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

Re: Hershey report
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. Last edited by pooch; 10-08-2014 at 04:33 PM. |

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

Re: Hershey report
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. |

Re: Hershey report
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. |
