The swap meet is nearly as long as the dragstrip is.
You will find plenty of good stuff there for you.

| I'm curious about this too Greg...website is vague, and the flyer we got at Springmeet has no details about camping. Think I'll try calling today, and post back if I find anything out. |

Was there any mention of pre-registering, or do we just show up at the gate and pay?

| Hope we just show up and pay! There was no mention of it in the email I got. If not, I'll be looking for someplace to park and sleep. I too was surprised there wasn't a thread for Vintage Meet this year. I refuse to do Facebook, but it seems that's where everybody get info these days. |

 Yep, a little windshield time.
I thought maybe it might work out for somebody who might be in the vicinity at the time.
But then, heck, Joescoolcustoms drove from the East Coast to Alaska!! (he da man!) |

The Seattle area bay window guys have regular meetups, but other than that you may be SOL. Sorry Joe.
Given your health issues, we would all excuse you if you showed up in a modern car, if that helps to alleviate your discomfort.
