OMVA Summer Show June 23rd

[peter simundson]

Your points are well thought out and right. There always has been four types of people who attend the shows,
the curious guest, the builder/collector, the
parts dealer, and the parts dealer/ collector, businessman.
In the old days of the Club the big collectors such as Don Smith, Bill Gregg and Frank Grant never came to the Shows or brought vehicles.
They wouldn't say why, they just wouldn't. You could ask but wouldn't get an answer.
15 cwt builders are getting scarce. Carriers are in the forefront now (I
wonder how long that will last). I talked to the table guys and the ones I talked too seemed happy. Except for a couple who are never happy.
Andre, Bob Phillips, Frank, Colin all went away happy. I sure did.
A couple of dealers bring overpriced militaria, (by overpriced I mean twice Militaria Show prices) and are disappointed it doesn't sell.
The Fall and Winter Shows are more of a meet and greet, Old Boy Show.
Then again no one has to do any work on them but me so nobody complains.
