Had a good time though I was only there for a couple hours this morning. Looks like I missed the real action. Also got lost when I first came in and drove all the way around as no one could tell me where Oldschool was because no one had heard of it. Hahaha. Thanks Neal for the directions, shame that I missed you (as in I left before you came). Will be aiming to be there on the Saturday next year.

i trawled the swapmeet Saturday morning.

 

Fought the urge to buy an Edelbrock manifold for a reasonable, but not great, price. Grabbed the guys card anyway.

 

Didn't text the guy with the 49ish Pontiac in the for sale section because I knew I couldn't afford it.

 

Got enough sunburn and saw enough of the same old cars so decided to go home. 

 

Saw SOHC's Volvo in the front row of the carpark on the way out. 

 

Hallertau having beers and oysters at 12.

Dropped in and chilled (literally) under the OS tent for 1/2 hour
