My name is Willie also and boy did I walk. Was planning on staying the entire day but by the 5 hour mark and closing in on almost 30,000 steps on my pedometer and the searing heat I was done. Biggest car show I’ve ever been to. Can’t wait till next year.
If you are not super into the swaps, I recommend going in gate 4 and see all there is in that area, which is A LOT. Activity Center, Car show offices with scores of great cars inside, even a bar! With a number of shaded areas and seats in this area, I recommend going here FIRST, and THEN later venturing past the tower area if you wish.
The car show grounds are hell itself. This is the first year I've missed since 1987. In that time, 3 years have been comfortable to walk in. They added the black top hilltop isle within the last few years. I have melted a pair of shoes each year since. It's simply too hot for me to walk the miles of area in the show.
Loved your video until you started dealing on the Mobilgas signs. Knocking the guy down three dollars.......come on. Other then that I enjoyed your video, keep them coming.
Those signs are reproductions imported from India. They have flooded the market and true collectors heavily dislike them. Many swap meets have rules that reproductions are not allowed because they've hurt the collection hobby. The true value is 25 a piece so he ended up on the winning side.
@@williewalks7777 So why would you buy them for above the "true value" if your just going to resell them? I've seen them sell in my area fro $100 or more, seriously. And those were reproductions as well. I hate repo's too. I'm just saying for all the expense it takes to be a vendor to do a show and to dicker over $3 is insulting in my book.
Great show😊😊😮signs and garage collectables
Thank you for your time and effort😮😮😊
I live in Wisconsin and I’ll have to go to there next year.

Swap meets are dead, I’ve vended for years and it’s all tire kickers and just a social event now… no buyers
