I am going. David Doyle (the guy that wrote that fabulous :lol: :lol: :lol: CCKW book) is going to be there... I'm gonna try and get him to sign my copy.

I may get a spot to sell some stuff. I have an M105a2 trailer, and I would even hang a for sale sign on my M35a2 for $3500. If the engine decals come back I will definitely go. But production lead time is 6-8 weeks last time I spoke with them.

I plan on digging deep for parts. I have a jeep motor that needs some internal parts and I don't feel like paying dealer prices.

Bad thing is most people see these shows as a second income.. just because the touched a part its magically worth 2x what they paid. Maybe if they blasted/painted/repaired it.. any metal part with rust on it should not be selling at 20% below retail prices. I tried to haggle a few times at other shows but people get so offended when you tell them their rusted just is really not worth must more than rusted junk.
I got a Mountain Cur and a ~~pitbull~~ big loveable cuddle puppy
