I’m thinking of showing my ‘74 PowerWagon on Saturday. However, I’d have to trailer it, I don’t want to drive it the 400 miles. LOL.

I am set up to be a vendor. Its my first year, and I am excited. Will be bringing a ton of stuff from Northern Utah. I am currently parting out two 67 Dart 2drs and a 73 Swinger, so let me know if there is anything that you are looking for that I can bring with.

awesome ! So glad you can make it.

You gonna bring some road signs to fill that big 3 swap spot space too?

This show is shaping up to be the size of our 30th anniversary show in 2016. But with a bigger swap.

We will be parking swappers on the tight side. But no matter what, we will have a space for you swappers.

There’s some cool stuff I keep hearing coming…it just keeps building up…

Famous racers Paul Rossi and Bob Tarozzi the 68 Hemi A-body creator…

survivor so cal 340 duster for sale in swap

j-macs with really cool 2nd and 3rd gen Charger parts. And a big $5 pile of goodies

Even more common parts like person clearing out garage with 360 std bore short block under that sounded reasonably priced.

Those are just snippets.

And bigger than normal spots.. lots of 60’ (3 spots) sellers

You guys.. BRING YOUR CASH !
… if you don’t find something special you can always take your cash back home. But the deal you missed will be gone forever!

Just this morning we beat our record for Swap Meet Pre Reg by 2 spots over the past 10 years! There's STILL 2 weeks until the show. * See post above about bringing cash for parts ;)

We are officially Record Setting!

Show cars are looking very strong too.

Trailered Show Cars: Lots of show cars are utilizing the Friday and Saturday night early trailer parking. That allows people to park the trailers and tow vehicles overnight. Or what most do, take there tow vehicles back the hotel. It's only $25 extra for both nights.

I always find neat parts for my A-bodies at Spring Fling.

Most FABO members on this thread have also. Some are pictured below with their parts scores:

I'll be there with a BOG (Barracuda Owners Group) shirt on. I'm going to try and spend more time at my car, should be parked with Max with his twin copper fastback.

yes, that is Nathan. Here's the same crate last year at Fall Fling.

Here's Nathan's parts hauler from last Fall Fling. New 15x7 magnums, BB trans, and forgot all the other stuff.
