Re: auburn V 8 Swap
Barn'er Joel and I went last year to sell on Saturday and were disappointed in the turnout, along with light rain. We will try it again this year Thursday and Friday.

Re: auburn V 8 Swap
If it happened to coinside with the weekend before, or after the EFV-8 Club's Grand National Meet this June in Dearborn MI, I would have attended, and possibly vended there, but I can't justify driving a total of 1600 miles round trip, just to attend a small swap meet.

Re: auburn V 8 Swap
Joel and I set up on Thursday morning with good weather and a fair sized vender count, but the hope for high traffic never happened, and sales were dismal. Should have packed up in the afternoon as most did, because it was miserable Friday morning doing it in the rain. That's two years in a row with poor participation, so probably won't attend future museum swap meets until changes are made to significantly improve buyer traffic.
We did meet some nice people, and spent quality time drying off walking through the museum, which always has something new every time I visit.  Bob |
