Hershey report
 

Had a great time at Hershey. Weather near perfect, hot, no rain and best of all came home with more money than I spent. Sold lots of good stuff reasonably priced. Even found a good home for a 1913 Pierce Arrow side lamp, I had it for years nobody even looked at it. Well a gentleman from Finland, picked it up and fondled it for several minutes, it was marked Pierce Arrow, but I was never able to find any car in my book stash that showed this lamp. I said do you know what that's for? Yea it's for a 1913 Pierce Arrow (something or other) lost in translation. I had it marked for $250.00, He said would $200.00 buy it? I kissed him on the lips and he handed me two big ones. Resulting in two happy people! That's what Hershey is all about. I sold a bunch of Model A stuff, there's still a big Model A following. Models A's I feel are as popular as ever. Lots of open vender spaces, unlike years ago when spaces were passed down through the generations or offered for sale, you now need only to apply and get a spot.

Maybe he would have kissed him on the lips without the $200.00

It never ceases to amaze me how these Model A bodies keep showing up at Hershey.

"Kiss him on the lips" is a slang expression, for you got a deal. Didn't think it needed explaining!

I came home $300.00 to the good! That don't happen very often! LOL

No sale on my truck. Lots of tire kickers, no money? You can't build a truck of this quality for the price. Reduced to $35,000.00 I saw a truck in the auction bring $45,000.00 not near as good?
