Hi Dale, The last two swaps I attended at Portland were very disappointing. My brother (your neighbor) and I started counting after the first hour or so and we figured for every actual old used car parts vender there was just over five venders selling new junk mostly made in china the majority of which wasn't even car related. It's sad to say but the sponsor's need to rent the spaces and the only way they can is to rent to junk venders. The Portland swap was once the crowning event on the west coast but now it seem to be more of a Flea Market. I hope this year is better but I will not be going. Tim
