It's off Lougheed, between 240th Street and the Haney Bypass.

I figured if anyone would know y'all would...
Thanks for the heads up... may head out there on Sunday!

It had 1993 Dodge running gear, with a turbo diesel, air bags, and hydraulic door. It was quite roomy inside.

This meet was quite a bit smaller than the spring one even though the weather was perfect. My favorite is the May swap meet in Monroe WA. There is one there this weekend, but the weather looks bad for Saturday.

It rained a little but there were enough covered areas to keep out of it. By 1:30 the sun was out. Didn't spend much, didn't see things I could use but there was tons of chevy stuff. Saw Atown but he was very busy so I didn't get to say hi to him. Good time.
