Just spent the weekend at the Beaulieu Auto Jumble near Southampton England. Thanks to Wade Kawasaki, of Coker Tire, for the invite. Margie and I loved it and I had to buy an extra suitcase to get everything we found home. Found parts for four project cars including; the TR3, Tornado, Mini and Lotus Elan. In my twisted mind, I saved enough money on treasures to pay for my plane ticket. I'll send Ed some pics, so that he can post them on the news section of our site. Ran into a few of our readers here as well. Great weather. Great event. Great cars and parts. Think Import Carlisle, but some 20 times bigger.

Yep, I use the same logic.

Please do a story on buying a crapload of parts and shipping back in a full or partial shipping container!

Junkyard Dog. I don't think that will happen this time, but it is a good idea. Seems the cheapest and easiest way to get stuff home is to buy an extra suitcase and pay the airline's ransom to get it home.
