Default Old Town NCRS swap meet

My understanding is there is no entry fee to visit the swap meet next weekend with NCRS id Old Town? I am passing thru and looking for an LT1 hood (short) and misc. other parts.

The NCRS websites are fairly vague on the subject.

We have no idea what State or City you are near? There are a lot of "Old Towns" in the U.S..

Ya, and every last one of them is having an 'NCRS swap meet' next weekend.

For the OP- no entrance fee, wander around as much as you like. Be prepared for a good walk from the parking area though. Have fun

There's no charge to enter the swap meet or the show. The only real restriction is that they won't let you in before 7:30 am, and they lock the gates and chase everyone out at 6:00 pm.

The swap meet is listed as being open on Sunday, but most vendors will be loading up early on Sunday, if not gown already.

The Winter Regional, is an NCRS event, but they don't host it. The Regional is put on by the Florida Chapter, which is why the info is on the Chapter's website, and not the National's. The swap meet is run by Tyler Townsley, a member of the Corvette Forum. He spends most of his time, in the C1/C2 section.

Stop by and say hi, if you make it to Old Town. I'll be on spaces 54-55-56.

Being that this is the 30th (I think) consecutive year they've done this show I guess they forget there's new guys now and then.

I can read, Mike...and I can also read 'between the lines'. You are who you are. And that's who you will always be.

The information you seek is regularly published in the NCRS Driveline magazine along with entry forms for those who want them.

The event itself is a regional meet, not a national meet. Contact the Florida NCRS Chapter. http://www.ncrsfl.org/
