Big Swap Meet

There is a large swap meet at Arco Arena in Sacramento this weekend on the 17th of April. It costs $6 to get in, but there will be 100s of sellers of parts and vehciles. You may find the parts or vehicle that you want. Google Arco arena and you will get good directions. Powerbalance Pavilion Good luck, Jag

Wow, it was great. Did anybody get to go to this swap meet? It was very large and there was an abundance of parts and supplies. This was the first one they have done in April. It is usually held the first Sunday in August when it's hot.

The August swapmeet is coming up on Sunday the 7th. It will be even larger! Jag

There were a lot of guys selling old sheet metal, frames, and rear ends. I did not look too close to see brands or years because I don't need that anymore. But, I'm sure that you could have found something. There are also guys walking around with signs on their backs saying I have blank for sale or I need blank parts. If you have been to the Good guys in Pleasanton, then multiply times three or four for this coming August swap. Jag

Pleasanton is too crowded. They have too many buyers and not enough sellers. (And the prices are too high!) Come to Arco in August and you may find what you need. Jag

pleasanton is too crowded and too expensive. swap meets used to be the place to go to find a killer deal on a hard to find part. now that the internet is so big, swap meets are the place to pay full blown retail on something thats just not quite worth it. turlock isnt as bad, but still not like it used to be.
