I stopped by for a short time in the morning. Sadly, this show seems to get smaller every year. I wandered through all there was to see in less than an hour. A few years back it would have easily taken that long to walk around the swap meet section alone. Like Bryan said, most of the "show" Buses and vans were not impressive. There were only a few altogether, and most were daily drivers rather than restorations. (A couple weren't even in good condition by that standard.) I've seen far more VW vans, in better average condition, at any of the summer VW campouts. The only remaining big draw of this event seems to be the drag racing, which isn't really my cup of tea as Vanagons are somewhat ill suited for it. :-)
