Went along yesterday, really enjoyed the swap meet.
I met Mooster purchasing his very fast Fly cars and the like, also Jexy1 who was busy running the NSCC stand.
Me? I went along with a strict budget, purchased 2 cars, one a Fly Lancia now completing the line up and a little Abarth which is superb!
I spent most of time rummaging through spare part boxes with the intention of restoring some of my older cars. The variety of spares you can locate is incredible - if you are prepared to look. I found that it really does pay off with a bit of patience, as I managed to locate a variety of parts to repair & replace parts long broken or lost.
The good news, I can now restore some sadly neglected cars to near how they left the factory.
Looking forward to next meet, these are addictive.

P.S. A winter swapmeet Nov time sounds a good idea (its a long wait between Sept and Feb!
