The show will include a swap meet, and this thread is to outline what you are bringing and/or looking for. Not that you can't bring things you haven't listed, but the fact that you say you are bringing something might compel someone to come in order to get it.

Have a grill/core support from a 1986 F250 6cyl, manual, ac truck that I could bring if someone is interested. All in all great used shape (patina on the deflector).
Was going to wall mount it but don't really have the wall space in the shop.  Have the hood and doors that go with that truck also. Would love to make some room in the shop so if you are looking for anything, please post it and I might have it.

Thanks, Scott.
Now let me add to the list of what I'm bringing - books! Over 200 of them, with probably an even split between Ford publications and others, like Mitchell, Clymers, Chilton, etc. And 13 DVD's of Hot Rod's Dream-Build-Drive library. Here are some pics:
And then here are the mainly-Ford publications:

We are going to miss you, John.
 As for what I'm bringing, in addition to the books I've mentioned before I'm also bringing a whole LOT of parts from the lady that is moving. And today that includes: A pair of underhood lights, neither of which work but surely a good one can be made from themCarbs: There are several complete Holleys as well as lots of parts for them, and a couple of 2100 AutolitesEngines: First, the 460 I pulled out of Big Blue that has and Edelbrock intake and water pump, and possibly and Edelbrock cam. Second an FE, probably a 360. Last an M-block, probably a 351M, with a 2WD transmission and the rare right-hand exhaust manifold..Pics of the engines are below, but the FE and M-Block must go. In fact, all of the books and other parts must go. So at about 2:00 we will start a huge sale on whatever is left.

You'll be missed!
If nobody snags the wheels (with tires) and I don't get my tire situation figured out by then, I might be interested. If nothing else, as insurance for the rest of my trip (I'm headed to KS after the show for Labor day before coming home to IN)  (I don't care for the rims but my tires are shot and I'm getting sticker shock when I looked at decent tires online  )

Good deal for someone on that seam sealer
 Some items I could bring: Trim piece only  Heavy patina on doors. Hood has some paint bubbling at the front edge but straight and solid at the hinge points  Brand new Atoto A6PF android head unit. Not necessarily related to our trucks but I can assure you it will fit  Bought to replace my older model but then decided I didn't want to mess with changing my amp wiring.  I say 'could' because with hauling two kids, luggage, and picking up 4 squares of siding in Tulsa, dont really want to haul anything back I dont have to

Off topic comment: I've come to the conclusion that with Android head units (I have three!) that as scattershot and quirky as these things often are, if what you have works and works well, keep it until you're "forced" to get a unit supporting a newer version of Android. Unless you get really lucky like I did and find what became a (mostly) nice unit at a thrift store for $20
... then again, I had to root and ROM it, and even after that, once a week or so it locks up and hard reboots while driving. But it's a really slick x86 one... crappy for app support/reliability (have to run a lot of old apps since new ones won't install/run), but supports modern sleep states so often times there's no boot time to speak of on key on. And unlike the last unit I had at last year's show, I didn't have to make a custom relay board to make it operable . (You won't see the new one, I'm taking my other truck this time!)
