Auto Fair At Charlotte Nc. (who Will Be There)
 

I AM THINKING ABOUT GOING TO THE SWAP MEET AT LOWES MOTOR SPEEDWAY IN CHARLOTTE NC. AND TRYING TO UNLOAD SOME OF MY BIGGER STUFF LIKE HOODS,DOORS,FENDERS AND SO ON. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY INFO ON HOW TO GET A SPOT AND HOW MUCH A SPOT MAY COST. I HAVE A BUDDY THAT GOES EVERY YEAR AND TOLD ME THAT YOU CAN GET PRIME $ FOR STUFF THERE BUT I HAVE NEVER BEEN. INFO IS APPRECIATED.

DATES 4/1,2,3,4 8:00 AM

THANKS PT

My brother & me will be there at least fri/sat. Hope to see some fellow members there............Jerry

I'll be there.

I'm going also.

This might be a start for getting information.Lowe's Motot Speedway

I think some people are comming from TN, Tim Christian has probably been before and might have more direct info.

J

Once we get closer to the date, we should try to figure out how & where to meet up...........Jerry

I'll be coming down from KY but not to sell as most of my selling will be in Louisville on March 19-20. Often times these big meets get sold out very early so you need to check with the sponsor real quick like or find a buddy who will share some space. Good luck---Huck

I'll be there Thurs thru Sat. maybe sun.
Bill

Check out www.charlotte-autofair.com. All the spaces on the inside of the track are sold out. Unless you know somebody it is hard to get those spaces. I have heard of people getting lucky and possibly get one space on the inside. Tim C. has spaces on the inside of the track that he sets up on and will be there from Thurs.-Sunday. I might have three spaces on the green field that I might not use, not sure yet. We also usually camp at our spaces. There are showers and restrooms that are available.

CHARLOTTE
 

I will be there fri.sat.sun too.see yall there can't wait

KINGPARTS WHAT IS THE GOING RATE FOR A SPOT, I DO NOT NEED NOTHING IN THE MAIN SECTION. I AM LOOKING FOR A SPOT SO I CAN UNLOAD SOME OF MY BIG STUFF. ARE YOU INTRESTED IN SELLING ONE OF YOURS.

THANKS PT

I'll be there loaded with bear to buy lots of parts. It's my twice a year get-a-way. Great place to be. Anyone have motel or tent reservations yet? If so.....where are you staying?

HOTEL
 

I'll be staying at best western only eight miles from the track.only 45.00 a night last year is was 75.00 a night and about 15 miles away.

They probably will have plenty of spots in the red field. Can't remember off hand but I think the spots are around $40, that was in the green field. But it has been quite a while since I paid for them.
Bill

$40 sound like what I remember too although I also remember a $75 fee somewhere there.
I may try to stay in the camp ground next to the track.

I'll try to make it,just depends on how the racecar does the week before the Auto fair. PTs as far as selling used parts there,dont get you hopes up on making alot of cash,I took stuff up there afew times and was inside the track on the orange field and belive me there's alot of guys selling used truck parts there and you just about have't give ya stuff away for cheap prices then they want you to take it to there car for them.lol I like meeting boardmembers and buying parts there mostly!

I'll be there with my car club. I will be looking to work with a vendor to bring a variety of parts for my truck though. If your selling new and used parts please post up. I'll be in contact.

I'll be with GM Muscle of the Carolinas club... Ill have the black IROC-Z with me. Drop by and say hi. Hopefully Ill have my 68 C10 ready for the fall show :)

Ill be there Fridayand Saturday.:bowtie:

If any of you who are taking parts to sell will pm me and tell me about where you'll be I will make sure I look at your stuff first before I buy.
THks

I'll be there.
This will be my first year and I'll be staying at one of the Fairfield Inn's.........northeast I believe.
Leaving here some time Wednesday and will be there til some time Sunday.

I don't plan on selling parts, but I wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea for board members that are selling come up with some sort of banner to show they are board members. I would give them first shot at my few $$ if i knew who they were.;)

ID would be cool
 

hey some form of a banner or sign would be cool to regognize board members, Id like to meet ya and well hey you all show alot of parts, why wouldnt I give the members first choice. as long as I knew who at the fair is on this board

that's a great idea!!!

Charlotte
 

Well I'm not sure if I'll be selling,I would like to try to sell my car 48 fleetline 4 dr original.I probably will wear my t-shirt with our logo,it has my board name on it.

Be there Sat!!!!!

PT sorry I didn't post a reply earlier,I have been in Moultrie at the show with Tim C. Like Big Orange siad don't plan on making alot on usedparts because it seems that ever five spots there is someone selling used truck parts. It is a buyers market. If I don't use them I can let you have one or two. I have to look up the cost, but I do think it is around 40.00. I let you know soon.

auto fair
 

Prices went up for this year,spots in the red and green field went up $5.00 to $45.00.They also made some changes,both the red and green fields now will have fences,in order to acces these fields one has to pay as if going inside the track.They also reconfigured the layout of the red field.I guess they figured that too many people were parking and going to the green and red field and not paying to go inside to the blue and orange fields.If you don't have any spots by now you will be making a gamble in trying to get some on Thursday.If David lets you rent some of his jump on it,then you'll have some for sure.I'll be setting up in the red field on spaces CR-21 and DR-21,a friend of mine has spaces CR-22/23 and DR22/23.We allways bring extra chairs for friends to take a brake and talk about anything but work.We carry all kind of junk and basically spend more money that what we sell every year but is great fun.I make a point to visit and say hi to Tim and the guys and make sure that my name is put down on the list for the board member's tally.Come by, say hi,sit for a while.I will have a white canopy (10x20) in one of my spots with the American Flag waving to honor all the service members that can not attend because they are taking care of our business elsewhere.HF

Where do we get a t-shift with the board logo & name?
