On Saturday, we went to the V8 Show and Shine swap meet at the fairgrounds. "one man's junk, is another man's treasure" There was a lot of "swapping" materials for anyone who wants to rebuild an older vehicle. I was more interested in the cars....I really liked a few of them, so I took a lot of pictures and only could put a few on the blog-otherwise there would be over 400 pictures!!
Main walkway into the swap meet
Oh the treasures that you could find!!
of course, I had to get a picture or two, or three or....of the wonderful world of "my little ponies"!! 
I love this one!! it was for sale---$17,500. "only 65,000 miles" on it. Could get a new, "naked"one for that much
'69 Shelby-Ain't she pretty!!!
Oh my!! I want this one, Mike!!
Green??? with envy that is!!!
I want a pony!!! Wouldn't it be nice to have your hair flying in the wind riding this pony?
Steam engine train that was at the fairgrounds...it sure is big!!
Old Mobilgas truck
Pretty, Pink- "Mopar"
Looks like something the "Ghost rider" would have! It actually works! 
Nice! I can see me cruising with this!!
A fix-r-up-r. Old Chrysler. They wanted $2000 for this!
"BUILT FORD TOUGH" This is a 1918-wow, 90 years old, looks as good as my Grandma at 90!! And still going like the Energizer Bunny!
Sweet 1925 Model T
1930 Ford Model A
1937 Ford. Mike liked the teardrop headlights
The only thing that said "Jeep" at the whole show...Why no Jeeps??? Oh, they are more mud boggers!! Have to wait for a mud boggin' show!
After we left the swap meet, we drove out to Post Falls, Idaho. There was the "Annual River City Hot Rod Show" They had burn off, bands playing, showing off hot rods and bi-plane fly over. We were really wishing the kids were here for this one!!
Check it out! A Mercury Comet-hot rod doing a burn out!!
Smokin'!!
Where's the car???
1974 Plymouth Barracuda--sweet!
Poor thing-it blew a head gasket!! besides 2 tires!

The name of this Ford was "hemi from Hell"

Awesome paint job on this Chevy
Super Bee
Reminds me of the "crypt keeper"
This Chevy truck had a lot of hydraulics-Mike liked it, I liked the license plate!
I can see our dad's in this one when they were younger!!
T-Bird
On Sunday, we drove out to Sandpoint, Idaho, which is about 75 miles northeast of Spokane, it took 1 1/2 hours to get there due to the speed limit only 60 mph and mostly a 2 lane highway. There was a "wooden boat show" It was something different to see.
Water cannon from the fire boat
Fire boat
This canoe was for sale. They were wanting $4000 for it, Mike said, we should get something like this. yeah right!! How are we going to do anything "family" in a canoe?? It had sails for it also
