    Very cool taking us with you to the swap meet. I had a green machine when I was a kid too. Road it till the wheels no longer existed. Can't wait to see the next video 👍

    This is one of the best swap meets I have seen for old unusual stuff like the odd rear end and that military frame
    The vans with the pick up box are a cool idea for a build

      Yes. Only my first time at this swap meet, but it definitely did not disapoint.

    I really do miss not being able to go to the Iola Car Show which is mostly parts and some booths . Two days is not enough for just the parts section !! Back in the late 1980's it ran for 2 weeks . I could only spend 1 week there and that was Not enough time to get through the parts section alone !! It started as a weekend event back in the very late 1960's or beginning of the 1970's . It started in a farmer's hay field , and as it grew it was extended to a week long . Although it's called the Iola Car Show , it grew to include the town right next to Iola called Sugarbush and was expanded to several farmer's hay field's and the farmers seen how it grew so most of all the farmers cut their hay at the same time for the Car Show and extended to a 2 weeks event !! I went there from about when it first started back in the end of the 1960's or beginning of 1970's . I continued to go till the mid 1990's !! That was my Man Vacation !!! There were several sections and one of them was the camping area for RV Campers and that's where I stayed at night , the days were in the part's area !! It Was A Great Time or Blast !!! 🥴👍 But if my wife See's this , then 😇

    It's so cool you made it there I used to go to that show every year with my shop cuz our shop we made model a model t and Willy's Jeep radiators the same way they made all of them original reproductions just with a modern core I can walk around there and point out hundreds of radiators at our shop made all the big distributors bought from us we never sold direct to the public by far one of my favorite shows and swap meets to go to.

    Glad you decided to stay for the car show and did enjoy the longer video for sure. I'm confident you will enjoy it it's a car show we went to every year about 10 years the whole shop would go boss man pay for us to go buy some beer and food while we're there the first year we went he brought us so we could see all the model ways and keys and jeeps there with the radiators that we made from scratch same way they made them 100 years ago so respond when you can go out to a car show walk around and see the work that you did in a car and knowing without that radiator that car would be going nowhere. Not sure if you're a beer drinker at all if so you should definitely try point special beer it's brewed right there and Iola I'm not much of a beer drinker I like my liquor but the beers I had they're pretty damn good
