I find little things there. Not a great meet if you are looking for Model A Ford stuff. Mostly older more expensive cars.

Gary Karr · 04-05-2015, 10:29 AM

Several of us from San Diego will be going. It is a nice swap meet. You can make it through in a half of a day and I always find some neat Model A stuff.
