BobT-47P15 Posted August 14, 2012 Report Posted August 14, 2012 .....this weekend (Aug 17 & 18) at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds in Springfield. Not far off I44 and Highway 13 exit. Parking costs $5 on the grounds. Usually more "other" stuff than old Mopar, but you never know what might turn up. Planning to go at the present time. (Mentioned the swap in another post, but thought it worth giving it a separate notice.) Quote

Niel Hoback Posted August 15, 2012 Report Posted August 15, 2012 30-40 bucks for a gas cap? I paid $35 for my first P-15 and drove it for two years. Now I'm really feeling old. Quote

BobT-47P15 Posted August 18, 2012 Author Report Posted August 18, 2012 Went to the Springfield swap yesterday. Didn't see very many of those gas caps. One guy had some for $5, but I couldn't tell if they were vented or not. Didn't buy one. All I could find of interest to me was one headlight ring, one parking light bezel, one nice dome light lense, plus an extra frame for one with no glass. For $10 total. Also bought some generally useful small items, nothing car specific. Spent total of $26. Wish there had been more but this is pretty typical of old Mopar findings nowadays. Weather was not so bad this year - high temps only in the 80s. Quote
