Last few times I went they had a bunch of vendors selling Jeep related parts...mostly used or NOS. They have a battle reenactment, food vendors and vehicle rides. If you're looking for the odd original parts, bring some money...you might find what you're looking for.

P.S....hopefully the ground has dried up by then too! :roll:

Its a good event and well worth attending if you're close enough to justify the drive. We're three hours away and will head out Friday morning. Plan is camping on site until Sunday like we've done for as long as Brent has hosted the event at his museum property. Previously it was held at his business location which is half a mile closer to College Station, Texas.

The WWII public show battle Saturday afternoon usually has more running armor than most Veteran's or 4th of July parades.

I'll be there as well. Will be leaving here around noonish on friday so will arrive down there around 1500. Still up in the air whether I want to camp out or enjoy the comforts of a hotel room. First time having the new M2 mounted up on Delores.

Just wish Sarco was not so ridiculously slow in shipping so I could have my ammo tray already. :roll:
