Clinto, never heard back from you on a price for the covers.....
Sorry, I don't remember us talking about the covers. Honestly, the last couple of weeks of our lives have been a zoo.

We're asking $900 for the complete cover kits. 3-color camo 1-piece vinyl covers, dropside bows and corners in metal and fiberglass staves, all new hardware, etc.

Last of my pics for today:

This has been my favorite part of the show: Seventy years of US military 2.5 ton cargo trucks together. A WWII CCKW and a modern 2.5 ton FMTV (M1089?).

We left a couple hours ago. Really fun show and everyone was really nice.

These are a few of the shots I got today.

Friday was rain and misting rain. Saturday was rain and thunder. We had a good time and found some good parts.

By 1pm though we bugged out and headed to Ocala and saw the Monuments Men. It was good and worth seeing. Lots of WWII equipment to see!

We just got home about 20 minutes ago. We stopped North of Atlanta at my parent's house to pick up Brian and hung with them for about an hour.

We want to thank the Florida Chapter for organizing and hosting the event, it was really laid back and fun. Much thanks to all the people who brought out such cool and diverse rides.

We had fun hanging out with all our friends and enjoyed meeting a few new people. We hope we can come back next year.

Does anyone have any info about the little Jeep that was built on the John Deere lawnmower frame or the homemade Abrams tank?

Like, did the people who built them put their builds anywhere online?

I took a few pictures between the raindrops also. And, I found Waldo! Just 12 miles south of Starke, FL!
Good to see you there Sir!
When I was a kid we would pass through Waldo on our way to our grandma in Citra's house.
On one trip we picked up a stray beagle at a gas station in Waldo, we named him Waldo!

I had a great time at this rally/swapmeet!
I set up to sell some stuff and overall did ok especially on Saturday when most of the precipitation occurred, I enjoyed having old and new friends stop by to chat and get in out of the rain, on Sunday we had clear skys with mostly flea market goers walking through.
Friday and Saturday night, out back down the hill was where most of the event festivities took place with the MVPA group at "Camp Flamingo",
they are a great bunch of guys and gals and i really enjoyed hanging out!
I don't know the official MV count, but i think it was about 30.
