Ozark Swap Meet

The Ozark Swap Meet is going on this weekend (17-19 AUG) in Springfield, MO. KC Obsolete Parts and Obsolete & Classic Auto Parts will both be there with F1 & F100 (53-56) parts as well as Swap Meet vendors.As always I’ll be there as the gates open and will be looking for that deal of a life time.
If anyone wants to meet up let me know. Harrier is coming but he’s all I know of so far.

BJ I will text you the location of your firewall unit. Wish I could be here for it plus i would like to show you how the spring hangers and shock hangers work. I have stock fairly new door closer and jam plates that I am no longer needing.

My plan is to be there sometime around 9AM on Friday. It all depends on if I have to take my youngest to school or not. Then leave in time to be in Bolivar around 4.
If I can find a Dana 60 there, it will be much easier than having to take one off a truck, but I doubt I will find one.

I’m up for the task, even in the rain. R U bringing your truck? Might be pretty heavy to get up in the flat bed.

I'm bringing my son's truck. I didn't want to be stuck to 50 mph for this trip.
Hopefully we can get it up there. With three of us, it shouldn't be to much of a problem.

Don’t ask me where it is because they blind folded me on the trip to get there.

Not knowing what to expect I took minimal tools and my 2016 F150 was already full of parts. Maybe next year they’ll let me drive there.

I missed most of those since I was looking for my Dana 60. We need to go back soon. Randy said is dad is not doing well, so things might change a bit in a year or so. I think they will hold on to the older stuff though. Fun trip.

Sometimes it takes a whole shop to take off what you need. LOL Lets see the back of your truck BJ! That's what counts Hope you found some good deals!

Any luck finding a Dana 60 Joe? You need to go back after all those weeds have died back
