Indianapolis Swap Meet (State Fair Grounds)???

[SGTPaul]

Has anyone heard what the dates will be for this swap meet this year? I've searched and haven't seen anything. Not even on the fair grounds website.

The Indy swap meet dates are March 6-8, 2015

Well I took in the show today and signed up for Mopar Collectors Magazine and got a free shirt. Picked up my new steering gear from Steer and Gear, hope I am pleased.

I noticed heads/manifolds were high, wheels were super high, carbs were cheap for the most part.

I was surprised how high the wooden steering wheels were and disappointed in the lack of aftermarket parts EFI vendors.

Didn't Lewt but there were alot of people there. Not much eye candy either.

same old overpriced junk. i was there 2 hours, probably too long. i did get some very important info from dave hughs about some of his ported heads i have. at the last minute a friend needed to tag along to find an orange ecu, there wasn't any new ones,....lol. mancini not being there hurt.

the highlight of my day was breakfast at the Daylight Cafe in a strip mall on 86th street.

I did make it out. Seemed like a lot of people with stuff to sell. Just not much of what I was looking for. Did pick up a few things but not sure it was worth the 5 hr drive each way.

Didn't seem to be as many spectators (buyers) as in past years! I know I didn't sell much of any thing! Spent more and didn't buy much either. I left Sun. around 11 and there wasn't anyone looking. Sundays are always slow but this one was bad!

 

[lewtot184]

i think the columbus and indy shows are too close together. if i can i'll buy new stuff rather than used junk; not much of a price difference.

I subscribed to Mopar Collectors while there, so far I am not impressed for the price

i like tech articles and mopar collectors guide doesn't do that, or at least the last i seen didn't. they did do an article on my '69 r/t some years back.
