Just curious if any of you guys/gals that went to the swap meets happened to see any M46 scoops while you were browsing?

Any original rear window louvers?

Did you see a price on the louvers?

Pretty sure there were none there, unless they were sold prior to arrival.  :'(

Sorry no I didn't. Wasn't on my "radar"

Just curious about the louvers is all.   I've got a set of challenger louvers but need cuda and I'm always watching the value of originals.

The only time I even saw the swaps was when they made me drive in through gate 1 on Saturday - won't ever do that again!!  Other than that the weekend went so fast I never even got down there...

At least you were having fun.  If you don't need parts there would be no need to go to the swap.
Would have loved to walk through all those awesome cars and be able to talk with fellow forum folks along with that. 

Maybe one of these days.

They tried to tell me to go thru Gate 1 also but I ignored the guy and went thru the usual Gate 3 as I made that mistake years ago - nothing like trying to drive thru foot traffic and carts when nobody is paying attention!  :pullinghair:

My Best Swap Meet finds:

Reproduction parts:
1) You can't beat @TONY 's new E Body ashtrays....beautiful reproduction....I bought 5 of them.....couldn't resist....
2) Not sure the manufacturer, but Jamie at Mega Parts was selling that little hook for the non-AC heater box
3) Of course Herb's Interior paint...Can't get enough of that stuff

Used Original Parts:
1) Came home with a nice E Body non-AC heater box core, slightly busted lip, but complete and clean $100.00
2) Also picked up some clean southern 340/383 E Body torsion bars for $20.00
3) NOS Challenger wheel lip moldings $400.00

Spent a total of $11K CDN :takemymoney: Overall, I say it was a successful "business trip"..... :clapping:

The louvers looked to be in great shape the guy was asking $1500 for the set. I did not come across any M46 Scoops and I visited just about every swap spot a couple of times.
