looks like this saturday is going to be good weather for the show going down to spend the day .might find some stuff ive been looking for .anyone else attending?

 

I am driving down Sunday with my 70 Green SX Conv (assuming it will start after the long winter!!). FYI - Swap meet is all weekend but Saturday is the Hot rods/Modified car show and Sunday is the Classic/original/musclecar show.

Thanks, Pete

 

Can't make it this year... With all the rain we have had this past month, Sure hope the fields have all dried out before the event... Especially the parking areas for spectators...

 

I hear ya John we’re finally getting a couple warm dry days, now more rain tomorrow

 

DeadEye, I've been trying to make that show for years. Sunday is the LI&NYC spring dust off. I may try to take the ride if the boss doesn't get to pissed. One day is ok but 2 might be an issue.

 

Haha ,been there ! It’s my 28 th wedding anniversary I told the wife I’m taking her somewhere special !! Just didn’t say it was special for me ��

 

after some nasty storms and high wind last night the days looking pretty good .got the 72 convertible ready to go yesterday,see how it does on the 200 mile round trip .good luck to all in your journeys today.

 

car ran excellent down and back got about 15 mpg .saw a ton of cars there only a dozen or so oldsmobiles they had hundreds of vendors as well, but not much olds stuff .kinda disappointed at that but all in all a beautiful day to cruise with the top down.

 

Good to hear you had a nice cruise... Weather was definitely good for it... How were the fields???

 

Fields were a little soft but no issues .

 

Nice Deadeye, nothing better than running with the top down on a nice day. Couldn't make the show today so decided to get my friends Buick 225 running. He ran out of time so continue during the week. The LI show was cancelled due to weather. Hopefully next year I can make the Rhinebeck show.

 

Just to clarify my earlier post, the swap meet is all weekend but Sunday is the only real day to go down for muscle cars and classics. Saturday is a different show- it is for street rods and customs, lead sleds, and modern stuff, and maybe sometimes people bring classics. Unfortunately it rained today, but Sunday is the show day for our type of cars. Usually, there are 1000 classic cars on Sunday (when weather is good) and probably 100-150 BOP cars.

 

Not much Oldsmobile stuff @ Rhinebeck one of you says?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
You must have missed my stand -- which had Oldsmobile, OEM ++ AC ++ and ++ OEM ++ DELCO ++ all over it!!!!!!!!!!


Came up from Long Island -- and did the Olds show in Merrick the first 10 or 12 years of that show -- but have been at Rhinebeck (clearly a much bigger show) for the last 30 years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Call me -- Craig -- 516 - 485 - 1935 --- to view my spread at the next show that I am at, where you might be...........


For me, that will be Mansfield, Mass. on Friday, May 18th thru Sunday, May 20th.... so, I can't of course, make the raindate of the Merrick show -- and I live in West Hempstead, 20 minutes away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Good to know Craig , I must have missed you there .
