I'll definately be there. Not sure which day though. Last time I was there was about 2 years ago. It's basically antiques/classics, but have seen quite a few modern era (third gens, etc...) showing up more & more. I'm hoping a decent hood vendor will be there, I wanna try & get a good deal on an ASCD SS hood for my project car!! I'd love to catch up with some of you guys & get some ideas for my rides!!

1991, you didn't miss too much. I thought the show was kinda lame myself. My father & I spent just about the whole day there, and we both were kind of let down. It wasn't like the past years, where there were tons of vendors for parts. I think I counted about 4 parts vendors, the rest were selling toys, decals, clothing, etc... The one thing that pissed me off was there was a wheel guy there, and he had the 4th gen SS wheels in his booth, priced at $799!!!! that's $100 over what SLP sells them for, and when I informed him of that, he shurgged and said "oh well". I thought the main reason for going to a swap meet was to find some good parts at good prices, right??? I'll agree, some of the cars were beautiful, but they were waaaayyyyyyy over priced. I guess anyone with a 1st gen was taking advantage of the fact that this is the last year for our beloved F-cars, and their prices were showing it!! I don't think that I'll be returning to the AC show anytime soon, but I'll better invest my time at meets such as Englishtown, and Carlisle. That's just my 2 cents worth, sorry so long guys!!!!

Atlantic city car show

I just went today 2/22 and it was cool. I saw 3 third gen firebirds there. An 86, 87, and a 92 + a lot of other really cool cars. I ve been going for 4 years stright now. The best part is that 90% of the cars are for sale. Check it out only 1 day left. Its $15.00 to get in for anyone 12 and older.+ parking (usually around $10.00)
Have fun
