I'll be there as a buyer. I'll bring along some 1950s Wide Whitewall and older tires if anyone is interested in a display tire for their stand. Send me a PM.

While in Lebanon, Mo for the show, we stayed at the 1960s era Munger Moss Motel on Historic Route 66, within a mile of the swap meet. It is like turning back the clock to 1960. Everything is maintained just like back in the day. Cheap rates and a unique experience. Even if you don't stay there, the giant vintage neon is worth a stop. http://www.mungermoss.com/

Jim,
That's a cool motel and their room rate is half what I paid at a national chain. I will definitely stay there next year. Thanks for posting all the pictures. It was a good show and location. -Matt

Mark and I got home at about midnight last night. We stopped at a few shops on the way north and ended up having a pretty full truck by the time we hit MN. It was a nice show, glad I went.

We got home last night around midnight as well... I had fun at the show. I really liked the venue and was happy with my vendor spot. The setup process needs a little refining, but other than that I think the promoters did a good job with the new location.
