Back in 2015 I bought a very good condition original six snowplow rear porthole valence from someone at Hershey who I suspect was or is a member here.

He Had a collection of various parts he was selling and I think he was from the PA/MD/NJ/VA region. I Would like to get in touch with him.

If you are him or have a clue who it might be drop me a PM. Thanks.

Any other information you can give us?
Older guy, younger, etc. I know a lot of the locals and may be able to help you out. But your post does not give me much to go on.

PS - I edited your title.

Thanks. Male Caucasian. I would say 60ish now. Medium build. Baseball cap. Wish I had more.

He was selling his stuff and had his buddy helping him. About same description for his helper.

Sounds like a cheap detective novel.

Thanks again for the help.

Turns out it was not Rory. Still trying to track down the mystery seller.

Still accepting any leads. Thanks.

Thanks for the PM Rory!

Honestly, the first person I thought of was Jim McLeod ( @type47 ). He passed away not long after Hershey 2015.

Could have been Jim but it is Impossible for me to say as I only spoke with the seller’s helper

If the seller was still around and still active on the board he would remember the circumstances of the sale. I guess that is how I hoped it would happen when I posted.

Obviously if the seller is deceased that is not going to happen and if that is the case, the whole effort becomes pointless anyway.

Thanks to those who looked at this and sorry if it brought up any unpleasant memories.
