Teddy da Bear 11 #1 Posted March 2, 2009 Just got a flyer from Ken Stephens about the upcoming swap meet in Mentone Indiana. It is only going to be one day according to the flyer. Wasn't it two days last year? The title and sub-title of this post tells you where and when. It is the same place as last year in Mentzer Park behind the Bell Aircraft museum and I believe that was walnut st. Follow the small signs when you get close!

Brrly1 1,146 #6 Posted March 3, 2009 Boy Howdy!! Ol' Timers isn't the word for it!! You bought the garden haul in the spring meet. Remember I brought home the 1054 from Ed. Carl, you and myself went. Then in the fall it was Jeff, yourself and me that went because Carl went to the Liberty Center show. Wow and I thought I had brain fade.

Jim_M 178 #12 Posted April 21, 2009 Mike, Either nobody went or nobody likes us anymore, I'm not sure which. Jim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick 13 #13 Posted April 21, 2009 Wasnt a lot of people there but still around a dozen tractors for sale, a dump cart and several people had loads of parts. Cant give you any prices because I didnt ask. I did have some ramps and was real tempted to ask about a 310 with no engine but resisted that urge since I was there to sell not buy. Sorry no pictures left the camera in the truck for some reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jusjeepn 59 #15 Posted April 22, 2009 Didn't make it myself! Finally got the parts to put the 4 speed back together for my customer! Spent the day cleaning and assembling the 4 speed and tearing apart the Yazoo in my shop! Don't sound like we missed much though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
