We're flying up from Florida for this show. Has anyone been there before? Are there any ForwardLook cars there?
What about parts?

Location: Rushford Minnesota		I go Every year, The cars are the biggest mix you could ever see from show cars to daily drivers, Looking through all my pictures from years ago there are usually some FL cars there but not many, BUt since they run about 10,000 cars through a year Odds are there are more then I realized as I was Looking for Furd Trucks and pre 1950 Plymouths. as far as the swap meet goes it isn't as good as it used to be and most of the vendors seem to cater to the furd and chebby owners but you can usually find something MOPAR if you look, I know there is one guy there every year that is only MOPAR stuff from the 40's and 50's. I can tell you for sure there will be one FL car there I plan to drive up with my 59 fury, Not much to look at but It gets me on the grounds so I don't have to walk too far

Location: Cushing, Wisconsin		Been there every year since I was 8 and now I'm 25. I love it, great show for sure. I'll be there this year in both my cars (my cousin is driving one for me). Parts are there if you are bright and early Sunday morning usually most the good stuff is gone by noon to one o'clock. Do you need anything in particular I might be able to bring you something if possible. Here are a couple pics of some forward look cars from last year.

Location: Fairfax, Minnesota		Here is a post from 2006, I think. Not the greatest photography, but it will show some of the Forward look vehicles that were there.

Bright and early Sunday morning? Don't you mean Saturday morning?

Can't think of anything in particular I need except for that seal at the base of the steering column on the '58 Plymouth.
