I find it very frustrating in searching for parts. I like going to swap meets and shows but the only two big ones within traveling distance are July Carlisle and the mopar nats. These are at the end of the season. Are there any early season....mopar swap meets of size, in winter or early spring/summer withing 400 miles of Buffalo NY. I use the internet alot, but it's better to see what you're buying rather than pictures. Thanks in advance to all...thanks moparts

Welcome, just what are you looking for. I agree its nicer to hold it in your hand and look at what your purchasing but sometimes thats just not possible so a little advice would be to try and deal with guys that are known and are not afraid to send lots of pics of the item, good luck.

There is a winter show in Columbus that gets attended by a few of the big guys who have parts. I think its mid March. I usually go and its a nice teaser after a several months of winter. The down side is that it is pretty small. There are indoor and outdoor spaces so dress appropriately. Weather has been everything from below freezing and snow to decent mild early spring days. Thats the only Mopar only show I am aware of earlier than Chrysler at Carlisle and within 400 miles of Buffalo that I can review for you.

The Columbus show in Feb is a good show... not to many "new" venders; but a few are there (mancinii, fine lines, penstar, few others).

There is also one in indy about 2 weeks later it is the a little bit larger and has different parts...

I find the prices to be generally good at both these shows and not over inflated like the nats...

Look forward to both in the early fall late winter every year... good kickoff to the season... - then again, both are within 2 hours for me...
