Was there today. Found a few things. I found a solid Targa top for my C5 even the right color for $40. Has a scratch so I need to repaint it but it has all the hardware and seals. It's in good condition otherwise even the headliner. He had a whir=te one for $50 without scratches as well.

Spent the afternoon browsing also....
Didnt brig anything home, but learned a lot, hands on as many C2 parts and oogling the junk.....
My favorites, were the 2 64s for sale, and the "67" that was really a 66....
quote heard: seller: "Its definitely an original big block car, it has the indent in the crossmember...." Prospective buyer.."My 65 small block car had that too..." Seller.."uh..oh..." (In fact all 65 and up had that indent in the crossmember....) I didnt stick around to hear why his "67" didnt have the center console e-brake assembly.....
I also liked the trailing arms from an "83"...I was looking for a set from a C3, but I dont trust anyone who cant verify the year of their parts.... I wanted to ask what color his 83 was.....LOL
Very educational anyway.......next year I will have a list and part/date codes and do some real shopping.

The weather did manage to keep us dry for the most part which is a really good thing for everyone. We had good crowds on Saturday and for the most part, the vendors were very happy and that meant people were buying and selling. 
I spent 4 days at the Fairgrounds doing setup on Thursday and Friday. Started to get the vendors in place on Friday afternoon and into the evening. Then working both Saturday and Sunday. My feet should stop aching by next week.....
Hope everyone had a good time!
