Always something going on about the same time it seems. Basically two swap meets in the (about) same location with buses running between the two locations

Portland is different IMHO to many other swap meets nationally since makes of parts are often mixed with others in just about every booth which means it takes longer to look through everything in every booth

Have been attending on and off since the 80's

And that is what make's it fun to hunt for the parts. If all was in one area. You would be done in 1 hr and say man that stinks I drove all that way to only find parts in 10 stalls.
