and got a GREAT deal on a 440 stroker kit for my 440.Thanks MANCINI RACING

That swap meet was today? I've got some good deals
there before.....but not alot of Mopar stuff

Good deal


Snowing like a banshee here, and I'm in the middle of destroying my basement (demo/remodel) so I ain't going anywhere today. Maybe tomorrow?

Yeah it's today and tomorrow. My buddy bought a 4.15" eagle 4340 crank, with 6.76" eagle h-beam rods for $600 brand new from mancini's...

Aside from that, I've saw enough chrome small block chevy valve covers to last a lifetime...

It has always been too expensive for me, I hat e to pay $7 for parking, $10 at the door just to see a bunch of 350 chevy stuff. I am glad to hear Mancini was there to take care of the Mopar croud!!

Mancine is there every year. I agree with you, way to expensive to look at bunch of chevy parts. That's why I quit going.

One year there I found a 4 bolt 340 block for $200
and it was all machined. Got it from a old roundy
round racer and its still my back up W-2 engine

I like going for the fun of it. I am bummed im out of town this year. I like how you see all the bros parting oout new escalades selling the rims and interiors. I wonder were all that stuff came from.

Yea, I picked up a new set of Grand Cherokee rims and tires there one year real cheap, $100.00.

I was there in 89. It was amazing to me at the time. I missed out on a factory 440 sixpack intake,carbs, air cleaner, etc.. for $300 because all I had was Cdn money and he wouldnt take it.

Ive always wanted to return, but it sounds like its gone downhill.

I also remember a guy who had row after row of 9" housings braced and whatnot, then he must have had 100 9" center sections with endless gear ratios and spools etc... It might have all been junk , I was only 19, and pro street was thee thing at the time.

No doubt the internet has made what you need much easier to get and probably did permanent damage to swap meets everywhere.

Hmmmmm ... if this was good ....Walter P should be even BESTer !

The Walter P meet is great. But you need to get there early.

Mike, your right the WP meet is geared for the restoration crowd.

When Is the WP event? And when is the college swap meet?

WPC is on the 25th. That's the one at the college.

Too much to do around here today so no state fair swap for me. It'll be the first year I missed in like 10 years, but no big deal. I'll go look at 100,000 different Big Block Chevy intake manifolds somewhere else I guess

The nice thing about going to the wrong swap meet is.... alot of times "the wrong stuff" is considered worthless and prices are low.

Last year at WPC which indeed is a resto oriented meet, I found a set of TD rockers for W7/8/9 heads, NIB, for $600....I thought that was a decent deal....I also picked up my Weld draglite wheels at a WPC meet. $200 for all four....nobody else bought them because they were drilled for slicks When race stuff is found there it's usually dirt cheap, especially towards the end......

Mancini gave us a good deal on a couple of hemi/six pack oil pans, (better than advertised). They are Taiwan light weight steel pieces, but will do the job. Almost 2 for one of the online price. Thanks Mancini
