    went to the swap meet today down past the point of the mountian in Lehi. for any of you who don't know salt lake it's south of the salt lake vally but north of provo. it was cool there was a car show going on. alot of trailer queens. i spent most of my time at the swap meet. i got a call from a guy i know who has a maverick grabber. he said that some one was selling a good comet grill and that it was $40. i couldn't pass it up. i got my friend to go with me and we went down there. i got down there and couldn't find it any were. so i called the grabber guy and he told me were the guys booth was located. i went there and he had already left. but lucky i got the guys number from my grabber friend. i called him and said just to come pick it up when i could for $40 still so i will have a new grill for my comet soon. i picked up utah 73 plates today. so i am going to be putting those on my car soon when i go to get it reregistered. but the best thing i purchased at the swap meet was a holly double pumper 650. i paid $55 for it. it has recently been rebuilt and it seems to be in good condition. i am going to be putting it on my 351w. so i was pretty happy about that. this was the first swap meet i was ever able to go too and i think i'm already addicted.

    Good Score!

    Its always a good day when you find something when you have money to spend. I always find stuff when I have no money, and never find stuff when I do! LOL:mad: :evilsmile
