Title: Looking for vintage racing parts, swap meets?
Post by: NCAmother on May 27, 2015, 12:30:42 PM

I really love anything vintage, old, and race related.  Hopefully to find parts for my own Guzzi project.  Are there any specific swap meets in California that cater to someone like me?  So far, I've been lucky enough to pick up some Manfred Hecht heads and a Dr. John EPA 2-1 exhaust.  These I stumbled on by chance, but it would be nice to know if there is such a trading/swap meet place that specializes in vintage racers

Thanks Paul!  I used to hit up pomona for car stuff a decade ago, I remember vendors selling a pebble for $3 with a  free beer!!!

Yeah that's funny! Me and a buddy used to sell a lot of gen1 corvette stuff over there and our bait was Cinnamon flavored toothpics 3.00 and a free beer or pop.
Good memories and very profitable.
