May 31st Muscle Car Reunion and Nostalgia Drags

It looks like the Riverport Swap meet has moved also.

MADISON, Ill. - Gateway International Raceway will be the venue for the 40th Annual Model T Club of Greater St. Louis Swap Meet and Car Sale, the largest single-day swap meet in the Midwest, on April 27. Model T Club President Dan Benjey said GIR is an optimal venue for their organization.

Wow, that's a real switch!
Man, I can remember when it was the Meramec Swap Meet (held at Meramec College). I sure hope the new setting improves the product selection. I haven't gone in three years.
Maybe some of us can meet up.
