Thanks for the clicks Brian...didn't see ya there, but did meet up with a bunch of the crew! Good to see you all before deep hibernation, thanks.
Some good contacts made for potential future rides

Sorry to miss you, off and running by 10.

Here was my awesome find for only $500 with the fuel pump included.

Good score Mike, where was that hidden, didn't see it in my travels around the hall and 1/2 of stuff.

Have wanted to get to Red Deer for awhile but it always seems just too far. Your pics have convinced me otherwise.
Did the Flattie/32 frame sell?
What was the 41-46 Fargo sitting on?
Thanks for sharing. Looks like a great event.

The spring meets are the better deal.

There are two:
QuickTimes in March 26, 2011
The Central Alberta Antiques one at the end of April/beginning of May, is the better one but more newer stuff is creaping in and more venders coming too.
Unfortunately more non-auto related stuff is also showing up.
Outside car corral is usually better too, only because the weather is better....sometimes.

As to the flatty/32 rails....maybe Jalopy Kid can provide an update.

I owned that red '39 Fargo back in 1989. Nice to see it on the road!

It was near the back by Lee's booth, near the exit doors.

Good work there, Brian. Is it just me, or do the prices seem on their way down lately?? Quite a few seemed reasonable.

Nope, not you, just the sellers, but still a little high in some cases.
Prices are down but buyers still hesitant to part with their money unless a good deal is to be had.
At a major auction a couple of weeks ago, several pro-built vehicles got good money offered but the sellers took them off the block. Sellers want their money out of them, market is not there yet, maybe in 3 years time the market may turn around.

Its seems $0.40 to $.050 cents on the dollar is where the market is now, and that still no guarantee that it will sell.
