You betcha!! I’ll be hitting Carlisle the week before too!

vilanar · 09-23-2022, 12:48 PM

Sure , long way from Finland though....

Ronnieroadster · 09-23-2022, 01:23 PM

Absolutely Chocolate field C4J 33-35 bringing lots of aluminum intakes for the Ford flathead V-8 most may not be the best for economy. Also have some other interesting items that need a new home as well.

You bet, again at C4S-35 with EV8 part or as Mike D calls it EV8 junk. Also a set of 5 KH 16" bent 40 spoke wheels, and LZ parts & gears.

Pat/Ohio · 09-23-2022, 06:37 PM

Yep! Probably my last! CL 9

Pat

DavidG · 09-23-2022, 06:48 PM

Likely mine too!

Chuck Kuntz · 09-24-2022, 06:58 AM

I will be at GBK 26-27. I've been going since 1958. Sure hope this isn't my last one.

I was thinking the same thing after reading two other posts here, but we never know what tomorrow will bring

Regretfully, I have been unable to attend Hershey for the past 30 years or so, after going to Hershey for 30+ years. My legs regretfully developed a habit of just collapsing on me without warning. I also have diabetic neuropathy with reduced feeling, in my legs below the knee, and in my feet, so no flea markets. Have fun. Remember, take clothing for every kind of weather. LOL

52flthed · 09-24-2022, 08:30 PM

I went for the 1st time last year and I was throughly unimpressed. I didn't find one thing to buy. Yet I find items all the time on Ebay. I don't know maybe it's me, or I dont know where to look?

JM 35 Sedan · 09-25-2022, 10:14 AM

The AACA Fall Meet in Hershey, PA is obviously not the place to be for some old car hobbyists, but for me, many of my old car loving friends, and for many folks in this country, and around the globe, it's usually the best place in the world to be for several days, or more, in early October.

Its certainly hard to find specific items considering there's about 36 miles of vendors rows to cover. I would expect most have similar problems finding items. One thing about last year there was not as many vendors I expect this year most vendors will return.

Agree with Ronnie. Last year was odd. No Canadian or European folks attended due to COVID. I also think this year will be a good one considering life has gone back to somewhat "normal".

slowforty · 09-25-2022, 10:35 AM

The first year that I went was 2016, the first time you go you are overwhelmed by the
size of the place. I got a map to find my way around, which helps lots. Also go with people who have been there before. I plan on visiting friends who are there this year. I am 75 so this might be it. But i am going even if i have to crawl.
