    Mine had new seats, not stock, they were like a suede and vinyl. The floorboards and frame were shot. The thing crumpled when the TrailBlazer hit me. It had a 350 with a holley 950 and a powerglide. Cragar SS's and custom paint, it was a super car. I loved it and I plan on getting another one soon.

    yeah!

    Exactly,what if somebody needs a new roof?!;).And all the right ones are smooshed because they're on the bottom of the pile?:disagree:..And putting the wagon,much less the woodiewagon,on the bottom is a penultimate felony.:mad:Their roofs are the most important.

    It would be a couple hour drive from Quartzite to the DVAP in Phoenix. Also, what swap meet are you talking about ? I know they have a car show there and that there is Desert Garden Classic Cars, but I have not heard of the swap meet.

    swap meet?

    Here in California,Huell Howser(of California's Gold fame)went to what he called a swap meet in Quartzsite.It runs from mid-January through most of February and includes a car show.It started out as a rock collector meet.Now people,from all around the world bring rocks to sell.Bunches of other stuff too.Marbles,socks,dijereedoos.There's even supposed to be a small powwow.Many of the people that show up,do so in RV's.They said the population can boom to over a million during those few weeks of this "swap meet" thingy.:party:
