And it seems to me that, the larger the meet and the greater the number of vendors, the chances of that elusive part showing up are increased.
This writer has been attending the Coastal Swap Meet for four decades and I have enjoyed the hunt for parts and pieces. On one occasion, I was looking for the big cathedral-style taillights for a 1958 Buick I was restoring when I ran into a friend who was looking for the same thing. I couldn’t wait to tell another friend who I encountered at the swap meet that I was looking for the same elusive parts that our mutual friend was seeking.
It is certainly true that eBay and other online sources have broadened the search for parts needed to restore cars that are sometimes up to 100 years old. But there isn’t that free-flowing exchange of local information available on eBay.
