Anyone going to the Ford swap meet in Columbus?

It's this weekend...Columbus, OH. I'll be there....was hoping to maybe meet some of you.

Blykins,

Can you bring me up to speed on this swap meet? When, where etc....

It is the largest all Ford swap show in the Country. 1100 booths. Runs all week long at the Ohio Expo Center at the fair grounds (less than ten minutes from my house;)

Ford Swap all Week-END (not all WEEK)

Rick -

Your fingers must have slipped on your keyboard - I'm sure you meant to say "all week-end". This swap is normally a week-end event rather than an "all week" event.

The all Ford Swap Meet at the Columbus (Ohio Expo Center) this coming week-end is one of the best around. There are two major Ford Swap Meets down there, one in the Spring around Easter, and the Fall one that comes up this week-end. The Fall one is always Thanksgiving week-end. Friday it is open to vendors for set-up. Saturday it opens to the public at 9:00AM.

About 90% of it is indoors - there are a few cars and a few spaces outdoors, but most of it is inside four buildings. I have found all of the really unusual stuff here - from aluminum 351C heads to Webers to original Cobra "Sunburst" wheels. Whatever you are looking for, chances are, you can find it there.

Tony Branda is always there, as well as Fran Kress, Pony Carburetors, etc., etc.

The Expo Center is even close enough (about 15 minutes) to go to dinner at the same Quaker Steak & Lube that everybody has enjoyed at the past two DVSF events.

Hope to meet some of you guys there.

Jeff

Yep, week end. My PC is out being "upgraded" (read, will never work again correctly). Getting use to this lap top is taking a bit of getting use to.l

Jeff is on the nose about the swap meet. David Kee often attends as well. Great selection of parts if you know what you are looking for. New and used parts.

If you come down 71 south to the meet, you drive within a couple of hundred yards of my house (North Broadway exit). Stop in for a beer or a cup of coffee. I will be in the garage all day Saturday cleaning it up for winter Cobra projects and setting up my new boxes.

I'll be there. Never miss the fall or spring one.
