Decatur, Texas swap meet this weekend ! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Tx Firefighter · 02-24-2010, 09:00 AM

Best swap meet of the year in this part of the country starts Friday.

I'm going to be out there with Shane and his bunch, and Lilred67. Look for Shanes newly built 67 GMC flatbed dually and my 63 beater. We'll be under the silver awning between them. Stop in and say hello if you get a chance.

And if Shane isn't around at the moment I will sell you some of his parts at a deep discount.

I'll be out there Sat looking for parts for my new 67 beater.

shaneschevys · 02-24-2010, 11:56 AM

We are on CP728-734,CP829-834. So now I see why every thing sells when I go walking

Tx Firefighter · 02-24-2010, 01:05 PM

It's easier on me to sell your parts while you're out walking than it is to bother carrying my junk out there and selling it.

jsbgump · 02-24-2010, 01:07 PM

Sweet you said some of it was discounted or maybe even free. I might have to help out

**72K20** · 02-24-2010, 01:32 PM

I'm going (since it's in my back yard practically) and bringing gobs of cash... but if TXFirefighter is giving away all Shanes stuff, maybe I won't need it!
Looking for a Power Brake Booster and M/C for my 1/2 t stepper, carpet kit, front stock coil springs, rear 4" drop coils, and some nice 17" wheels, among other things. Holler if you got some and you're going!

I got a buddy with a spot . He's hauling a bunch of stff up for me to sell .

shaneschevys · 02-25-2010, 11:01 AM

We are loaded up and about to leave!

Boyd · 02-25-2010, 11:33 AM

I want to go this weekend to look at parts for my '72 but have never been before. How much are tickets? Where is it located exactly? What days is it open? What hours? I can't attend Saturday (which is probably the best day to go). Anyone have a link?

I'll be looking for a power brake booster and pedal set up, sb V8 towers and some other stuff.

Shane, looks like you're even bringing your own Port-A-Pot, that big tan looking thing on the back of the flatbed! You must have been a Boy Scout... Be Prepared!

LOW DOUGH · 02-25-2010, 05:14 PM

My buddy is going out there in his 66 LWB slamed to the ground. I might go out there too! I hope I can.

lilred67 · 02-25-2010, 07:45 PM

kevin, that is wrong in many ways, but sooooo right in others.
i always hear the sanford and son theme song when i see shane going down the road...lol. i'll be up there about 7:00 a.m. & get my quality merchandise set up to sell.

Troyz R Us · 02-26-2010, 10:16 AM

Wish I could make it...There's several odds and ins that I'd like to find.

**WIDESIDE72** · 02-27-2010, 10:25 AM

My dad and brothers will be there on a Corvette yellow golf cart. I can't make it. I told them to stop by. Make sure you give them a good deal.

shaneschevys · 02-28-2010, 02:46 PM

We had a good time, made a little money, & drank a little too much. Cant wait till the next one in a few months!

SCOTI · 02-28-2010, 07:40 PM

I wanted to go but the last time I was out west I almost didn't make it home. That same issue kept me from heading that way this weekend so I picked up another 12bolt local (thanks Jonboy). Maybe the next one.... I want to see that 67 GMC flatbed!

**WIDESIDE72** · 02-28-2010, 08:05 PM

My dad came through on his way ome. I gave him your space #'s. He said he looked at a few thing but no one was there. He didn't see anything he needed so he didnt go back by.
