THE EVENTER - It’s time to plan a road trip. Spring is finally here, and you deserve a break. There are some stellar events coming up in April that are sure to appeal to anyone needing parts for a project or just looking for a great event with like-minded hobbyists. Two of the year’s biggest swap meets arrive this month—one relatively new show is a first-class event, and another celebrates a truck brand that you just don’t see often enough.

THE EVENTER - Not all events during the winter months are held in the southern states, and this month we’re checking out long-running swap meets west of the Mississippi River. (Two of them have lasted for more than half a century, congratulations!) If you’re within driving distance of these events, don’t miss out on the chance to scrounge around for parts and make contact with dealers from around the country.
