Beach blast

Has anybody been to this showBeach BlastI'm curious cause if i have the time i might ride over and check it out it's in Cocoa Beach in May.

Also has anybody been to Webster Flea Market lately? I have heard that there is another place down the road from them that is supposed to be better.

Umm, being from the area I've never gone, but can tell ya it'll most likely be a blast. Cocoa Beach is a great place

Also, is Webster the big flea market in Orlando with antiques etc? My dad has been there, I believe he said it was too expensive. In melbourne which is 25 minutes southwest of Cocoa Beach there's the Super Flea, or you can go north towards Titusville on 520 and hit the Frontinac Flea Market. Super Flea is larger, haven't been Frontinac in a long while being I've been in CT. for 2 1/2 years, but I went to Super Flea when I was down in February and it's as busy as ever Bought me a new belt and buckle.... Dale Earnhardt Buckle of course

Steve & I went to one of the weekend custom/classic/swap shows in Webster about a year ago. They only have the 2 or 3 day shows I think like 2x a year. Otherwise, they have stuff happening every Sunday.

We had a blast there. Bought the gears for our 9" rear and all kinds of other stuff for the '41.

We also ran into a guy that we meet up with every year at the Turkey Rod Run. Ric also has a '41 - only his runs. He must live close to Webster cause he drove there and back home the day we were up there. If you ever see a lowered orange 1941 Ford with white & orange vinyl interior, stop him and tell him we said "hi".

And Josh, Webster's a little town north of Tampa.

Hey Wiz -

Correction, they're only once a month. The first Sunday of every month except when it's too hot. It's not the flea market, it's just north of there.

Here's a link:

Wiz - the Beach Blast is the show of the year in this area - other than the trukey run - They have limited it to the frst 200 cars because of space - but the spectator rods are often as good or better thatn the show rods - it is well worth your time to visit or to show your car/truck off.

Mike Kelley of the Cruise News is the organizer and our club helps Mike with the parking. It is one fine show

I'll be honest, I had no idea where it was, just heard my dad talking about it. Now that you mention it I do believe he went on a Monday and it took him all day which would make sense being near Tampa.

It's actually north of Brooksville on 75. It's the SR 478 exit and then go east.
