Toronto International Swap Meet


The TO International Swap Meet is on Sunday Dec.3. I have a vending spot and have some  "new" Acadian, Nova, Beaumont and Chevelle stuff. If you are going look for me at the back wall (if I can get it again this year).

You guys are fortunate to have swap meets so close to home. A weekend to Toronto is a minimum cost of $!000 for us. With fuel, hotel room and food even for just one night. Toronto is so overpriced with all the immigrants wanting to live there it is just pushing prices beyond reach of the average working family. Enjoy the swap meet and good luck with both sales and finding a good buy.

 The swap meet really isn't in Toronto, at least not to someone like me who lives 10 minutes from City Hall downtown. Its a 45 to 60 minute drive IF traffic and construction co-operate could be easily 90 minutes to two hours on a bad day. Its actually so far from my place that I really have to think about whether I want to go. It would be faster and easier to make the swap from Barrie.

My intention is to go. If I do it would be nice to hook up. Competing for my time is packing for a 3 week trip at the behest of wifey.

Big Ray has decided in favour of Church, Swap Meet is fun and all but I've got so much car junk now plus I just picked up that posi rear end snagged two Pontiac Sport steering wheels at the same time got a Bosch bench mat last week and bought a cool GM collectible from Andrew this week, not to mention all my other scores this past few weeks that follow. It is nice to connect with the guys but nicer to connect with Jesus smile on the first Sunday of Advent.

If any of you see a 1963 Pontiac full size Assembly Manual, pick it up and I'll immediately send money.

Thanks,
Don

 have to agree with Big Ray, not so much clothing but a lot of toys and junky parts. The bright spot again was Chris`s table, its like being in a jewelry store

Thank you Kevin, sales were very good. Had an enjoyable day and met up with a few of the good people on here. Sold almost all my Beaumont stuff and some of my Acadian parts. Good quality parts are getting very scarce!

 Spent 3+ hours walking the aisles of the market. Bought a few items. Spent time talking to Arcadian and a few friends from other clubs. Missed Kevin.

It was quite well attended and there were very few booths that I walked by without seeing something of interest. Very few non car related booths, if any. Unless you count the car models and  t-shirt places as being non-car. Many repeat vendors year-to-year.

Will attend again.
