When in june is it?

[dynobrat]

June 4th, it will be my first time going, but I have been told once you go you are hooked for life. And apparently you cant get through it in one weekend. Acres and acres and acres of cars and hard to find parts, I am looking forward to it. And lots of cold beer, oh yeah.

It happens again in September, thats when you can get your best deals, apparently...because people dont want to pack it all up again and put it in storage for winter, they want to use their trailers for car storage etc. But, regardless if you need it bad enough dont wait buy it, so they tell me.

I am not sure of the dates yet for sept, but I can post it when I find out. If you go, let me know, we could have a beer and yak. I am going with a couple friends who really know their stuff, its going to be great fun. My mechanic is awesome, hes in his 70s and has worked on cars all his life, mostly Corvettes. He is a keener, and a real blast to hang out with. Funny as hell.

Im close to Pembroke, we are leaving thursday the 3rd, taking a camper trailer down, it will be a good time....beer....walk....back for some food and beer and head back out.

I've been and it's incredible. Well worth going. Just make sure that once you see something your interested in, buy it ASAP! Because someone else will get it! I missed out on a bunch of parts because I told myself I'd come back for themlater

[dynobrat]

thanks, that's good advice. I was told that there will be people right behind you watching ready and willing to buy it, so yeah...definitely taking some cash.

[BBCamaro1980]

Yes definately bring TONS of cash.

Nothing but crap at Barrie now. It used to be a gold mine 25 years ago.

just got back from Barrie tonight. Didnt really see many camaro parts. Lots of busted up brake lights and gauges but not really alot for interior trim or hard to find stuff. Hopefully it will be better in september. Saw a few nice things like seats, but they were brown

Was even looking for center caps for a 99 mustang wheel. No such luck there either.
