When I went in 09 and 10 I had the only b body 78 fury 2 door the whole way. There was a magnum and as I remember a Cordoba or 2 along the way at this stop or that stop. I still have the fury.

I went a "long way" home, west out of Indy on 36, have a buddy who lives near Rockville, and there's a place the wife and I like to eat at any time were near (actually a couple of them) that area. He's from my area in IL originally, but moved down that way about a dozen years ago. I usually...

yup. ridiculous how far away they made the spectators/buyers park compared to past years...

yup. same place as usual... right by the doors at the back building. was hoping my guy with the 80s truck stuff was there, but I didnt see him. In the corner at the opposite end of that row, also opposite side from concession stand. Did you see the maroon 77 Hornet wagon down that way? They...

damn.. I went right by there 3x... I came in those doors, went by there, I went back by there ( didn't see much the 1st time, had to make an "outhouse run") so I went back down that row a 2nd time, and a 3rd time when we headed out cuz I saw something on the other side of you from that Demon...

I thought it was this September sometime? Not next June

Wish it was this weekend. I'm camping 12 miles from there. Trying to arrange a meeting with one of a few C body parts people for my son's project but they're all at the nats. Got 2 that claim to have a windshield for his car nearby (Murray Park is about 14 miles west, went thru his town on...

Yeah we wanted to hit volo this year too, we were there last year in the off n on rain, we didn't have that to contend with this year for sure but my 2 yo grand kid was a bit under the weather over the weekend so we couldn't go. We finished stripping the wagon yesterday. The newest thing in/on...

Passing thru IL on the way? Need anything for that wagon? I know my kid just finished gutting a 72 Fury wagon, and could use a windshield for his '72, got an extra one to trade that you could drop off on the way thru? The wagon we just gutted came from your state.... We didn't go that far to...

Still too far away

Wasted day. Drive down in wind driven heavy rain. Took me almost 2x as long as usual to get there. (4-1/2 hours) cost me $10 to drive In the gate. Another $30 for 2 of us to walk in the building. Another $17 for 3 food items. A pretzel ( my wife wanted) an order of fries for the 2 yo...

Headed down there in a few minutes, should be there in a couple of hours. Got to make a stop along the way though. Have a /6 flywheel that needs resurfacing and a 12 hp Kohler block and crank for my cub cadet, that needs a visit w/a machine shop......

I don't know the route, but isn't hot rod power tour around that time?

Just got home, kind of a bust compared to the years of it being in Elmhurst. Much smaller for sure. Prices on most stuff was way nuts vs even last year. Like 400 for an f body floor shift steering column with no wheel, 5-6 sets of various bucket seats $500-650 from different vendors, I bought...

That's weird, it's been in Elmhurst forever. That's better for me though, Tinley is much closer to home

As title says. This swap usually happens (happened?) Around mid Feb at Larry rowsch Chrysler dealership. Is it a go this year?

I know last year was FRI/SAT. I thought it was weird then, too

I sure hope not (moving to Ohio) as Indy is on the edge of being too far for me to go to, as it is. I hope it happens just as it has the past several years in the same place as last year, as I have had good luck in finding substantial needed parts for my 2 projects. I was just asking...

1st Ive heard of that, but he did say at the time that he rented 1 floor of the building for ~6 months at that point.

What part of the country would this ridiculousness be happening?

Gee thanks for the encouragement haha. Just for work and all the mowing I have to do at places away from home, I filled my Dakota (1/2 tank) plus a 5 gallon can $68 My wife's Durango $74 And my 12 dodge 1500 2wd $91 over a whole 2 days of each other Not much left for "extra" trips lately. And...

yup. I was there for a "preview" today.... the building is FULL of stuff.... 2 stories worth!!!! I got some 80s truck parts outta there..... he has LOTS of A body stuff!!!!

I am planning to go to Rockford that day. Don't know if a guy could do both in a day or not. Is this swap inside or outside or both?

When I have been there, it's been pretty much wall to wall vendors and buyers.

In Ohio next year? That would suck. Farther away for me. Waiting also to see if RhinoDart (dont think he is on this forum) is gonna have his swap like a month after this one. Went last year and 2 years before that. (the in between year the city shut him down, due to this scamdemic, he was...

well, more of us have to take off of work Friday, than have to do the same to come down Sunday, so I'm not so sure how well that will help. I've been to swaps and car shows often where the last day seems to end earlier than advertised, but that's when I tend to go. I hope they ain't strictly...

Why Friday and Saturday instead of Saturday and Sunday?

might just have to make that one....... I was there on a Saturday about 3 years ago, most had been there, set up and went home for the day, and weren't around to make a deal but I couldn't make it back for Sunday when sellers would have been around.

Well then I'm glad I didn't go.
