It's over for another year, had a great time re-connecting with friends old & new, buying things that will probably go on the table next year. Lots of fenders this year, not as many wheels; plenty of smalls & rusty things. And the weather was great! I added photos farther down this link.

Somehow I didn't think you were coming, you were always hot to trot for weeks prior to leaving, suppose I will have to drink the extra tinnys I am bringing, met you once 3 years ago.
Regards Brian T.
 
Entry for swappers and shoppers is different and a little tricky. Miss the time to go in and you will sit outside the rest of the day.

The web site doesn't state the times. Could someone post them here?
Thanks,

Richard, If you go to the bottom of the Big3 website and double click on `rules` you will find the vendor and buyer times for each day. By the way there will be more model a parts in NI 24 through 28. I`ll be in NI 25. Neil Mylar
 
The Model A Times will be next to Arizona Model A! Stop in and say HI! You should be able to notice our booth!

Neil,

I have been unable to locate space NI 25 on the map at the Big 3 site (http://www.big3partsexchange.com/site_map/default.html). Did they send you a better map when you registered? Can you give some pointers as to where to look.

Charlie,
The swap meet takes up the entire west half of the stadium parking lot. The spaces due west are the "W" area. The north "N" area is adjacent to Friars Road.
When you walk in you will see 55 gallon drums with a sign for each row. Walk along until you see the drum with "NI". Actual space numbers are on the ground in chalk and some times hard to read, but each vehicle parked must have a sticker on the windshield with the space number.
Hope this helps.

And they are not kidding about the seller gates closing on the dot 12 noon on Friday, not one minute later. Fire Marshall sets the rules on this.

Ed,

Your explanation is probably the best. When I was given the space number I incorrectly assumed that "N" was the row. I have been to this meet many times but never had a reason to look for someone. It is a great meet.
