Springfield, MO Swap Meet
#6
It went pretty well. I got a windshield for my truck, saved me a ton in shipping. Don't know when I will try to put it in though. Gotta get the rubber for it.
Obsolete Classic Auto Parts was there. I asked about a bumper, but they just had a chrome one on them. That would not look good on my truck.
I may be able to recover my original bumper though. It may still be in my wife's uncles shed (He passed away a couple of years ago and we aren't really on speaking terms with his son. His daughter we are though, so I just asked her to check with him to see if I can get it back.) Then I will need to have BJ come over and help me straighten it.
I got BJ his transmission. The guy didn't blink at my offer. I hate it when that happens, I wonder how much cheaper I could have gotten it. I pretty much walked straight to the transmission.
The 53 with the old flatbed is on a Trailblazer chassis. The flatbed on it was for a one ton. He said anyway...
I've got a couple of pictures I will post here in a minute.

Here are a couple photos from the Springfield swap meet. My wife and I spent about 4 hours there yesterday afternoon. I was hoping to see a vendor there with Aeroquip hose and fittings, but no luck. I guess I will make another order to Summit. I need some hose and fittings for the remote master cylinder reservoir and the oil separator for the PCV on the Mercedes engine. We had a great time.
