It’s Fall weather out here, which is a byword for atrocious. My buddy had been wanting to get out of town for a few days on a road trip, so we planned a 10-day trip around the famous Pomona (CA) swap meet.<\/p>\n

We had heard a lot about it and decided it would be a great time to check it out. And since I’d never been to California, all the better. I’ll have a few more posts in the coming days on other things we visited on this trip, including Yosemite, the Petersen Auto Museum, Shelby Headquarters etc. But for now, this is the 1st log.<\/p>\n

We normally visit the Portland Swap Meet. This meet in comparison was enormous (and the Portland meet is huge). There were literally thousands of cars for sale (yes, I got the number right). We couldn’t even check out most of the cars since there were so many. Most of the cars in the pics were for sale. The best thing was all the cars were very affordable. Nothing was overpriced.<\/p>\n

If the car was a project, or driver quality, or show quality, they reflected the prices you’d expect. And it was pretty neat since occasionally you’d have drivers going up and down the strip in the swap meet, so you could check out more cars driving around. The only downside was that it was 94 degrees, no wind, and all on asphalt with no shade, so it was incredibly hot, especially for 2 dudes who’re from Alaska and not used to that heat. But worth it. I’ll probably have to break this post up into 2 pages due to the number of pictures. Anyways, the pics follow!<\/p>\n

The entrance to the meet<\/p>\n
