I have been to the Portland Swap meet many times. I would have to say that there is better quality "stuff" at the expo than at the PIR race track.
Over all I have NEVER found any restoration parts of any significant rarity/value.
This part of the USA never was and still isnt a good place to hunt hard to find NOS or excellent used G.M. muscle car parts.
IF you can stay home and earn money doing something else youre better off shopping on EBAY or the Internet in general and finding what you want.
Given the cost of fuel, lodging and road food it isnt worth the aggravation.

That is damn near impossible to find. The only guys who really want those are concours correct guys, and theyll pay good money for them.
If youre not going concours correct, have a later one made to length.
The Monroe swap meet is the weekend of May 20

i can't have a later one made to length because the later ones are too short. if it was too long i could have it shortened but can't make it longer lol
do you have any spindles or black back seat in good shape from a 79-81 Camaro?

Ryan,
I will more than likely see you at Monroe, but I won't be going to PIR this year either.

Ive got a dark blue upper back seat, but thats all right now. Unless I get a really good deal on stuff, I probably wont be buying anything soon. Ive got way too much stuff at the moment
