Not really, we did pretty well on Friday. Not sure about Saturday and Sunday though, but when we went there was plenty of 3rd gen stuff up for grabs....

My buddy and I got there Sat. morning and walked for hours. It was really disappointing. What was w/ all the junk (i.e. bicycles, fishing stuff, kitchen appliances, etc.)? Who else had to wait @ least 2 hours just to get out of the parking lot!!!

Re: disappointment at englishtown?

there was a friend of mine also selling some third gen stuff, and there was a guy in my row selling trans am stuff 85-90, i did miss out on friday was about 15 minutes late from buying another convert 91 rs price was good but car needed alot of body and interior work, including the top, would have used up most of the convert parts i had, hell like i can do anything in my current condition anyway, i bought a 91-92 formula nose an cowl hood and rear interior packing tray for my 72 monte carlo project mess,

i think everything that was good was there on friday, then all the crap showed up
