Jim Kriese: Model A’s Swap Meet has been 50 years of fun

The Modesto Area Model A Club would like to thank The Bee for the coverage you gave of the Modesto Area Model A’s annual Swap Meet in the Turlock Fairground in January. It was the 50th Swap Meet the club has planned and carried out.

We work hard to make an interesting and safe place for auto enthusiasts to gather to sell their wares and talk car-talk for a weekend. The weather wasn’t as cooperative as we wished, but our meet was a success in terms of camaraderie.

Jim Kriese, President, The Modesto Area Model A Club
