30-35 years ago, it was cool to go if even just for browsing the car-corral and the vendor area. Would occasionally find some unneeded random part/s for either of my Plymouths. At the very least, I'd leave there with shrink-tube. A buddy will occasionally ask me to accompany him there. Unfortunately, I'll decline his offering. This footage just seems to be a "sign of the times" kinda thing. Thanx for the tour!👍

We need to keep these type of events going. I went to this event for the first time and I can’t complain , yeah the prices be pricing but eyy it’s not a swapmeet if you can’t negotiate a snag on the score

I used to sell parts there for years, its how i made my living, but spaces are so expensive now, its just no longer worth it.

That’s unfortunate. With the cost of spaces and fuel your starting off in the hole @$200. Not to mention the time to load and reload getting there the day before or real early. I hope it improves.

Yeah it's sort of a waste of money going to Pomona now I heard a number of vendors saying they don't know how much longer they will be selling there anymore since most people buy online and the cost just to get in is driving buyers and sellers away so I'm sure things will just keep getting worse if you look at other states swap meet videos there packed with buyers and vendors but they don't have the high cost of living we do so they can still enjoy SMH...

Correct. I didn’t even think about the high cost of living in CA. There are so many negative things happening in CA that affect every part of life. Even car swap meets are affected.

Are you a professional comedian because all of your “good deals” are hilariously bad. That 76 Camaro is a money pit. That’s a $30,000 bill disguised as a $6000 deal😂😂 Wait, the guy asking $4500 for a partial deluxe roof is the real comedian. WTF is up with VW people? JFC. I can say that cuz I’m a VW bus guy😂😂😂 A reckoning in prices is coming when this recession hits full tilt. You’re gonna see the entire bottom drop out of the classic car and parts market. I’m stacking cash for that day.
