When I rolled out of bed to head down to the first Pomona Swap Meet of 2013, it was almost 30 degrees outside. Yep, it gets cold here in California sometimes too. Too damn cold for me, but 28 degrees quickly warmed up into the 40’s once the sun came up, and we were able to wander through the huge parking lot of cars for sale dreaming about what our next project should be. With 4 different sections set up for specific years and makes of cars, it’s truly incredible to see. It’s also a great place to people watch. Father’s and sons, friends, husbands and wives, old and young, they all come out to the Pomona Swap Meet to check it out and have a good time. What’s really interesting though is the number of people who fly in from Sweden, Australia, Canada, and everywhere else you can possibly think of across the globe, to look at and buy American muscle cars.
We’ve got a couple galleries worth of photos we’ll have up this week from Pomona, but our first one is nothing but 50’s and 60’s American Iron. Muscle Cars, Wagons, Pro Street, Impalas, and more.
Glad you got up for it. I stayed under my electric blanket yesterday morning.
Way to go Chad, thanks for braving the Chilly California morning and grabbing the pictures, the Pomona and Long Beach swaps are defintely on my bucket list!
