Default Photos from Hershey Swap Meet

http://supercarfreak.net/gallery/album1327?page=1

55 photos there in that album. If anyone wants a full-res picture of their car just PM me with your email address and which photo you'd like. I did the best I could trying to hold an umbrella and not get my DSLR wet, but they're not too bad all things considered.

A few examples:

Nice, that white 73 RS-look is beautiful. But I would not kick a single one out of the garage for a drip or two!

The RS lookalike is great. Always wanted one (clone or not!)

Nice to see all the beading on the paint!

Gotta say the 993 is the prettiest of the "911" series!!

So how was the swap meet? It looks like the weather may have held down attendance? I was thinking about it as it was also pouring rain here in Charleston. I have never gone to Hershey but always wanted to. I hope you had a great time h0rde!

Thanks for the pics. We were wet enough under our eazy-up and didn't get a chance to fully saturate ourselves by walking around other than to the porta pots, the only place to avoid the horizontal rain and wind. Yeh attendance looked way down and most people looked wet, cold and slightly better than miserable. Not real interested in seriously looking at anything. IMHO they really need to consider changing the date of the meet to another month if possible. It's time for new conversation other than how crappy the weather is every year for the meet.

Don't they have a dome arena right there at that site? I seem to recall seeing one.

It's held at Hershey Park, (They have like 9 or 10 coasters, we go at least once a year) maker of Hershey chocolates. The stadium is the Giant Center, home of the Hershey Bears of the AHL. Colorado Avalanche minors.

Nice pics! So those are what I missed when my 4yr old said he couldn't feel his hands any more and we left.

They DO need to change the date....I am tired of the rain!
