Yea, I usually make the swap part of this show. This is the first year i was thinking of entering my car.

Not to sure yet, Will see what the weather does.
Will know more towards the middle of the week.

I know they get alot of cars, I usually end up walking through them, and by the time im done walking through the swap and the show, my legs get tired.

We usually walk in halfs, walk the first half and car corral LUNCH then the second half and swap meet.
