Got up at 6AM, got home at 11pm. Had forgot just how far that place was from me.
Had a real enjoyable day. Took my son with me. He liked it pretty well. My best friend came down from Tenn. with a trailer of parts for the swap meet. Not surprisingly, I was his best customer.
Got to finally meet and chat with Keith (Moparmadness) He was a real cool guy ( I knew he would be) and picked up new door, roof rail and trunk weatherstripping from him at a terrific price.
After buying parts..........I came home broke. In addition to the weatherstripping , I picked up a 71-74 pistol grip shifter (non console type) , new repro wheel opening moldings, 8 3/4 open rear with 3.23 gears, 2 k frames with LCA`s and sway bars, a pair of usable 72 fenders, and a single 72 Rallye door I needed to complete a set.
Saw a 72 Rallye for sale for $4500 but did not look close. It looked pretty rough. hood was rusted out, fenders were full of mud etc etc.
Looked like a slightly perfumed pig.
I got a few pics that I will post up later.
Was a little smoky in the AM from the N Florida/South GA forest fires
but that seemed to clear out as there was a nice breeze. When I left about 6:30 it was getting thick. You could see ash falling like a misting rain and the smoke was burning my eyes a little.
