During a quick road trip to Springfield Missouri,
we were staying at a budget hotel
and the parking lot was full of car guys.
(Look closely to see the rat hood ornament).
Turns out there was a huge auto swap meet at the county fair grounds.
So we popped in to look - for fun and maybe to find other vintage items.
Takin' a look under the hood.
Plenty of interesting people and vehicles,
"We Don't Rent Pigs".
Some people were prepared to cart around their finds.
Some rented scooters to cart themselves around.
Signs, signs, everywhere a sign.
My husband, who tried his had at door painting this summer,
was particularly interested in this booth.
Click here to see the truck doors that he painted recently.
He called this scene, "A Set of Tires and a Couple Spares".
but out of our price range.
They have a huge car show once a month in a small town near us. We've been a few times to street dance to the band.
ReplyDeletehow fun! this was our first car show, and we were in a time crunch -- so probably only got to see about 1/10th. i am sure i could have found some items to buy if we had more time. so interesting. happy eclipse day.
ReplyDeleteThere are vintage car shows in my rural town occasionally and there always seems to be a good turn out for them. Thanks for sharing @ Vintage Charm!
