Default EV8 opinion on Rhinebeck.

Looking for the valued EV8 Fordbaners opinion of the Rhinebeck swap meet. What is the situation on EV8 vendors ? I have not been there before, and it's about a 3-4 hour trip. Thank you Fordbarners.

Swap meet starts Friday at noon. Lots of Ford stuff early. The swap meet continues Saturday (modified) and Sunday (classics). I will be there on Sunday rain or shine with the 46. I used to go Sat/Sun but have too many spare parts/engine so don't need anymore. One of the fun shows in this area. Weather forecast is not good so may get to exercise my wipers which is good for them.

Rhinebeck is a great show. I have been attending since 71. I always manage to find something I can't live without. Weather looks bleak. Rain Friday and Saturday cloudy on Sunday.

Where do you live. You might be able to hitch a ride with another barner.

I agree with Phil. I've been to the Rhinebeck show several times in recent years, and have always enjoyed the.swap meet and car shows. Have always found something of interest or need. The car shows, and meeting up with old friends has always made the trip worthwhile for me.
I'm planning to be there Friday at noon, and leave Sunday around mid day.

Don't really see what being an EV8 vendor has to do with it.
Have been there several times and purchased EV8 stuff from other vendors that just happened to have what the EV8 vendors didn't have. And I know that I did better price wise.

Anyone care to venture a guess where the Rheinbeck swap meet is? Recon it could be between Hamburg and Munich. Yes - No ?
