I'm nearby, but I haven't lived here very long, so I don't know anything about the Turlock swap. Anybody have any information on it?

It's one of the biggest auto swaps in california. I know people that come down from Portland to attend.

Not as big as Pomona...don't know about Portland, never been.
Turlock is one of the better swap meet because it only cost $5 admission, free parking and lots of vendors that also attend GoodGuys in Pleasanton ($8 parking $12 admission!) attend this swap meet. In speaking to a couple of vendors say that they price their parts cheaper because they don't have to pay the Pleasanton higher space fee. Also, the lots of individual sellers travel from a distance that brings alot of parts. BTW this is a two day event.

I usally go. Found some good deals there. The vendors do sell cheaper than the Big shows. And you can find some good stuff in the swap meet too!

I didn't get to make it to the Jan swapmeet (dang trans).
Did any of you guys get any good deals? :)
I'm going to try to make it to the next one.
It almost killed me since I couldn't go. :(
