- So I was told about a pretty good swap meet that been going on in Lawrence Kansas for many years so u decided to check it out. It was an 18 plus hour round trip and i have to say in my opinion, it was worth it. There were plenty of vendors and some good deals to be had. The people were very friendly and the food was also inexpensive. The only downside was that i didnt take my 4x4 truck and it was a bit of a mud fest. We weren't allowed to park in the first lot as they were only allowing 4x4 trucks. Luckily we found a spot in the back of the swap meet to park with no mud. I should say that only avout a quarter of the swap meet had mud issues. So although my did and I both got a little muddy it was all good. My mom however wasnt to happy about that 😄. I heard Chad from @NobodysShow CZcams channel was out there but i missed him. Maybe next year.
- Auta a dopravní prostředky
1.50 hot dogs I would be getting busy on them my self and 3.00 burgers with some grilled onions. 👍
20:24 I have the sign from a display for those Delco Pleasurizer shocks. I don't think they lasted long.
The swap I did Memorial Day weekend was like that, mostly outside with a couple of buildings. They split it into auto parts and a crafts and home stuff section and some of those guys end up in what is an open sided livestock barn while others get a locked steel side building. Used to have three buildings but about five years ago the winter snow collapsed the roof of one and they just tore it down and didn't replace it.
Norwich, NY. It's a big swap for here but it's been slowly dying, lots of empty spots. Some because of the weather. It runs Saturday and Sunday but Sunday is dead. I sold two things for $15 and started packing at noon.
Good video. As others, this and that. Looked hot outside!
This was actually last month so it waa still nice in Kansas
Wish you woukd have taken a look at those dual carb intakes & the velocity stacks, The F-body, also, I need a amp gauge!!!
That's a good deal on that 54 ford wagon make a cool drag car straight axle gasser 👍
Nice 442 😳👍
Ohio has some really good swamp meets as well White's Farm in Indiana every Wednesday
You should have stopped and priced those 1968 coronet/super bee tail lights somewhere around 28 to 35 minutes in the video. Those are bringing crazy money
7:54... Best of his items is the model collection.
It was only 3 hour drive for me coming from Nebraska. Didn't buy anything but it was a good day out.
I bought a few things although I had to have but enjoyed it. Will be back but on Friday next time.
@@ClassicRideSociety I went on Friday and from watching your video there were a lot more vendors on Saturday.
@@ClassicRideSociety have you ever been to Iola Wi. swapmeet?
About 3:51 in I spot 1978-1979 DeVille/Fleetwood rear lights and bumper, which might be a good find for the Cadillac fan. 6244 Factory Rd in Crystal Lake where L&H Products was located now has a dog groomer and obedience school located on it.
Wizard tune up parts was part of Western Auto for a time and Sears eventually had a handle in WA. I have two minibike frames like that. AT about 11:42 in, looks like an older Toro S-200 snowblower. I have one, I have to get back into it again, but I should able to get it to fire and run.
Those gold tools were offered to Chrysler technicians back in the day for completion of certain technical seminars and quizzes and also for parts managers and other employees that met certain milestones.
The guy at 17:30 is dead wrong. AMF RUINED Harley Davidson (to the point that they almost went under in 1981. They bought them around 1969), not saved it. AMF owned Western Tool who made "536" model prefix product for Sears (snow blowers, edgers, mowers, etc.). That stuff was very good, I have a lot of it.
Old oil cans, they are worth something now. How many were tossed out for years and years? I don't see the Supertech plastic jug that I just recycled today after doing small engine oil change last week being worth anything. LOL.
At about 22:00, that sounded like me when I had to pick up the 1981 lower Craftsman rollaway from CL out of someone's driveway late at night. I was trying to be quiet and careful---there was a brand new Raptor in the driveway with a window sticker still on it. I didn't want to come within feet of possibly damaging it and wanted to be quiet, it was 10 PM and the folks that gave it to me were kind enough to hide it behind the side of their house under some recycling bags so it would be out of sight. Turns out they got ten people to inquire about it, but I was the first to contact them and arrange to get it.
I've said it before, I like the old gas station/service station items like that. I'd really enjoy in retirement hanging out at a station where I could do work if I wanted to and just help the owner or come and go as I please. My coworker that gave me the toolbox combination used to have a few service stations over the years. I'm pretty sure he had a Getty or a Gulf and I know he had a Merit station. Hess eventually bought them out. At 27:42 I see a killer dog, a Shih Tzu. My sister has a Shihpoo which is a Shihtzu and Poodle mix. She just turned 13 yesterday.
Sears used to sell those types of "tune up kits" which became popular in the 1960s and 1970s (that set looks like it's from the 1970s). I have most of those tools probably as Sears Craftsman or from Star Hoffman who made them for Sears. They are part of A&E Tool of Racine, WI. My Tonkas like that are up in the loft area of my grandparent's (now my) garage.
I hear "Fat Bottomed Girls" from Queen which came out in 1978. At about 50:00 in, I see a Sanborn (I think) air compressor which has a similar set up to the 1968 Sears unit I was given by my friend. I have the same eight lug Chevrolet wheel center cap like that. Found it tossed out when walking back from the library to return a DVD.
We didn't get to see the dog. LOL.
8:59... I know who installed the Club Wagon windows behind the doors of the Econoline. No idea if He still owns it.
That Bent steering wheel is where a £350 driver hit it
😄👍
Dang swamp meet is right that place is muddy.
Actually only about 1/4-1/3 was muddy

Holy mack a old seberg jukebox I used to service thoes man would I love have that one but 750 bucks nah..

Prices seem to be more realistic in Kansas vs Texas meets.
U mean a giga counter I have one yup original in the box baby and it not forsale..what did he want for that one??
THERE IS NO ONE CARRYING ANYTHING.
I give a shout out to Jeff the guy who runs the truck repair shop all the interstate behind the parts dealer Jeff help me out about 4 years ago got some real nice people up there in Lawrence Kansas
I got that vibe from then folks as well 👍
Did not see many buyers pulling carts. Lot of stuff here is junk. Not many entire cars for sale.
It usually rain around the the Lawrence swap meet which make it a mess And there are only 2 good thing about kansas.
1. Ku hospital
2. Nebraska furniture mart.
Don't sound like you ever got out of Kansas City
How do I contract u it's a small part
Did you get the A.C. unit?
I did
16:31 are those records or calendars ?
They were records if not mistaken
@@ClassicRideSociety oh ok... 18 hour round trip is a far one.. must cost alot in gas !!!!!
@@oldskool1979 went in a 4 cyl car so it wasn't too bad. It was last month so gas was a little cheaper as well
Are you still out there I seen something I would like to buy
I'm in Dallas now
While you're in Kansas, stop by and see Chad at Nobody's.
He was actually there at this swap meet as well. Somehow I didn't see him
@@ClassicRideSociety He seems like a really cool guy.
@@budbrown5687 I agree. One of these days I'll see him at a swap meet or stop by his yard
@@ClassicRideSociety One day, you should do an open house, if you're up to it. I'd make the trip down to TX.
After watching this, these people need a dumpster. This has to be some of the worst stuff I have ever seen for sale.
That is a pretty far drive for you !
And it was a gamble because I didn't know if they would allow my dog. Well worth it though IMO. Ive actually travelled further. Went to California for the Pomona Swap Meet back in 2014
Looks like a huge area thanks brother
LOL.........quit going to this swap meet 5-6 years ago. Same guys selling the same random crap, year after year.
If you are a Mopar guy, save your kitchen pass and go to Carlyle
The internet was the downfall of swap meets. I do it mainly for the thrill of hunt and I enjoy visiting new places, going on road trips with my mom
