Default Re: Swap meet selling

As others have said, just because someone doesn't have a art doesn't mean he isn't buying. I'm at the meets looking for parts trying to beat out the other guys for the deals and the last thing I want is a cart weighing me down. I make a deal to leave the part for pickup later so I can keep going. I have been the first guy in the gate in the morning and in my truck within 45 minutes. My father and uncle honed my eyes fir early ford parts so don't lump people together. At 14 I spent a couple hours on the phone talking a guy into letting me look at the 32 ford body he had listed in hemmings for cheap. He thought it was junk and tried talking me out of it. I insisted and my father and uncle drove me down there to look. We got out of the truck and the guy went up to my father, then my uncle and finally said, you aren't the guy I spent all that time on the phone with? I still have the 32!
