Sadly the Englishtown swap turned into pretty much what this swap meet did , a glorified garage sale full of junk nobody wants ... it's not about cars , anymore ... it's about yard equipment & dicast .
:D looking at the old (metal) tools... I just brought home a wrench from my grandfather's shop at his house (he's been gone about 10 years but my grandma just died) it's stamped Ford 3Z-2034 it's an open ratchet 3/4 inch box end wrench.. you flip it over to change direction. Accordingly it was made from 1908-1927 and was for adjusting the transmission on a Model T... so it must've been my great grandpa's. Obviously it won't ever go anywhere and is now hanging on my bedroom wall half leaning on a 32 Ford 3 window Hot Wheels.. need to find a Model T one now to put with the wrench. I guess they aren't worth much though as one came with every Model T ever made... which is a LOT. (over 15 million) Like I said, the coolness factor and family history means it'll never go anywhere anyways.. I also wound up with an old Wilde Tool Company spark plug gapping rotary pliers. It has this star thing on top, a little U shaped thing in front and squeezable handles and the star thing has different gauges of steel to gap the plugs to.. Don't know why you'd need to gap that many plugs.. Must've come out of the shop at the mill when the Diamond Match Mill in Stirling City shut down. Man I can't believe you didn't say anything about that late 80's Monte Carlo.. those things are so bad ass.. talk about a NASCAR legend.
Took me an hour to get in but I got in at 6 am, if you are part shopping you have to definitely start off on the side you finished on cause that’s where most of the vendors carry the random parts and what not, got me a bunch of goodies and the early birds get the worm. Always negotiate you would be surprised how often you can get someone to lower there price! It was a Great show!!
Thanks for sharing Craig. That wagon... ya... could see you building one of those [they are out there in the salvage yards those old Galaxy wagons] :-)
This video reminds me of my 1961 Galaxie Starliner that I realize I'm not ever going to get around to restore it, has been customized with shaved door handles louvered Hood Galaxie XL 500 interior someone put a Ford 400 automatic in it I've never had it started I did buy an original Grill to put back in. It has rust in the rocker panels and quarters not sure about floor board not even sure what it's worth, live in southern Indiana.
Man you are lucky once a month, were lucky if a swap meet comes around us in Youngstown Ohio 1 time every 5 or 6 years . When I was little it used to be 1 time a year . Keep up the great work and God Bless.
Wow good video. I missed Pomona due to a prior family commitment but have found that the Secret is to find the Ford section by looking for the tall flags . There's lots of cool stuff in between for sure
That trim on the mustang is driving me nuts! But I’m having trouble deciding what I want to see you do with it. I think it needs to break-up the black, but I’m not sure how. Maybe a stainless steel color??? Silver? Gold?! I don’t know! I just think it would be super unique to use it as a break in the black rather than murdering out the back of the car. Maybe even red, but I feel like you’d need other red accents? Obviously, it’s your car, so what you see fits! But I just wanted to share some ideas of something to add a lil flare to it. What are your thoughts? Maybe my idea is complete garbage? Let me know, seriously.
The reason it's getting harder to find old car parts is because the old timers are dying off, and there kids are just scraping all the metal. I've seen it done with all are old wrecking yards. There kids didn't want to run the business so all the old car's truck's went to the crusher. I wanted to cry because a lot of those car's truck's could have been restored.
Pomona swap meet, used to be great till the early 2000s. Then internet changed things. But, if you're into Chebbies, Raiders garbage and listen to Lowrider Oldies, it's the place to be, Dawg.
The swap meet in Portland, Oregon is larger, by a lot. It's actually 2 swap meets. The Expo is 52 acres, packed. The PIR swap meet is a 2 mile road course with vendors on both sides all the way around.
And you can usually find used decent Mac wrenches on eBay and really decent deals on Amazon on car stereo stuff to put in the mustang oh and Sonic electronics where I bought my subwoofers..
I would have walked out of that place so broke 😂 I would have bought stuff that I didn't need just because it was cool, especially if there was a pinto booth or section, and yeah I noticed that you kept saying 45 hrs, I was like this dude is tired and should go back to bed 😂 well at least you have another cool hat to add to your collection 😜🚗💨
@@wyohotrods 😂😁 I have a hatch that I put a 347 in it but if I had a wagon I would have surely bought them because they look good on a wagon but I would have to v8 swap it too because I would want more power than factory and have a cool little sleeper , is that all you have for the pinto?

You went the wrong swap meet! I never go there. Overpriced to the hilt. Only one I go to is Veterans Stadium in Long Beach. I used to go to Qualcomm stadium in San Diego, but they stopped having it..
Pomona is completely bogus... Shut down for two years... ALL of the cars there are way over priced... Long Beach has been open just about the whole time. I probably wont even try going back to Pomona for 2 more years... THEY SUCK
400 for a grill that is nuts for a 67/68 ford grill i could buy the whole truck for that i only paid 250 for a 70 high boy with tool box on side dana 80/60 lockers with a 390 in it rust free clean body i mostly get them for free in fact i have a complete front clip that is very nice sitting in dirt now because i don't need it . looks like i need to start selling instead of scraping the stuff. the chevy pu u were looking at for 5,500 for a rust bucket i have a 79 short box cheyenne full option truck with 35,000 miles on it with the 400 sbc and 400 turbo mint condition just had to put a fuel pump and clean the carb from sitting got it free with a 67 rs ss 427 yenko and a 68 ss 396 and 2 79 z28's all for free . yesterday i just turned down a 58,000 mile stroked 454 with trans for free just have to pull it . i know were line after line of rigs that i can get cheap like 300 a rig i mite pick up a 65 ford pu that is very nice for 300 even has the tool box on side best part it mite just need a tune up looks clean no rust in it
Being born and raised in Orange County ,CA. I grew up going to the swap meets when they were at the drive in's. I miss them.
everybody thinks their common used parts are gold and want almost full retail for them
Exactly! Old sheetmetal is obscene!
You’re right, it’s why I don’t go to swap meets.
I wanted to go for my galaxie but didn’t end up making the drive. Glad to see I didn’t miss out !
Seems most of the good parts end up on the internet. Sure do miss spending the day at a good meet. Thanks for taking us along.🤘🤘
Lived for the Englishtown NJ Swap Meet every year in my teens through early twenties.
RIP Englishtown Race Way!
They still have the Swapmeets. It’s coming up at the end of September

I bought that 72 camaro at 11:37. Greatest buy ever. 🙌

Still a great swap meet to film and show us. Prices looked crazy high, good for you staying disciplined enough not to buy if you didn’t need anything

That 50s bel air and the wagon right after we’re my 2 favorites you showed! wow!

Sounds like a cool car!
Ohhh the aroma of the tri tip cooking ..so good
Liked the green ford custom cab and also the white nova.
Oh shit I'm the owner of that blue 67 f100 lol !!
I got to the gate at 3 am and there was probably 20 people waiting to get in in front of me

i haven't been to the Pomona swap meet since I went as a kid with my pop
Def need to put you on the hunt for me for some 50's nash parts lmao, nothing that big in my area sadly.

Ok Craig...get that waggy!!!!!
spend some of that RUclips money 💰
I love going to the Pomona car show
Let me know if you find Hahn Letters whe you’re there next time. Lol

Maybe larger, but definitely wetter with rustier parts.
14:25 I have a 1978 Huffy Monoshock like that one but mines red
Very cool what you do but could you not move your camera around so fast?
The Mercury M100 is my Brothers. Dope it was in the video
“45 hours of sleep” 😂
And you can usually find used decent Mac wrenches on eBay and really decent deals on Amazon on car stereo stuff to put in the mustang oh and Sonic electronics where I bought my subwoofers..
Jealous of the big shows out there. Another great video! 🔥🔥
If you sell you can come in on Saturday and camp out.
That car you didn't know was a Chrysler Imperial (Green Hornet)
I remember Pomona since I lived not far from it when I was in LA it was not really huge back then but the stuff was amazing..
100K WE R ALMOST THERE!!!
The young man with the beard you talked to about the silver foxbody GT turbo and the Galaxie front end suspension parts was my youngest son, Caleb
It absolutely kills me when you cut away when a wicked VW is in your shot... hahah.

We had some pinto wagon panels for sale. 😂

I would never have the patience to sit in that line
Those swap meets you better bring a whole lot of $CASH$ I would have to have a few wagons to pack
Yeah that thing was packed I was there Sunday it was awesome
That’s my k10 at 12:03 got my asking price and it’s sold going all the way to Florida 🤑🤑😎💰
It seems like forever since I been to a parts sale...I use to go all the time..darn you covid.
You must be tired because you said you were going on 45 hours of sleep. LOL.
I was on 45 minutes of sleep I was incredibly tired haha
Glad to see you been awhile. So you got rid of the 1968 9 mustang? Still have the Galaxy I see.
Howdy from Alaska.

Looks like spring Carlisle.

Where is this place? Nothing in the description or title.
You can tell your tired bro, I do the same shit when I’m running on no sleep, all words sound the same in my head when I’m talking
Really interesting video ( I grew up in Pomona ) . Only thing I would ask is Please pan the camera back and forth much more slowly . Makes me dizzy .
I really wanted to make it to this Swap Meet. I knew it was gonna be crazy packed
When is the next one?..

The last meet I went to it was pretty big and all I bought was fake dog crap. I haven't seen that in years.
Where did you get that 427 hat?? I need one
Longer than two years ,
How much did they want for that Chevy Nova?
People have been couped up too long... they need those parts!
