How We Absolutely SCORED at a High Performance Swap Meet!

[@andrewcapili]

That’s cool. You ran into David from Motor Trend’s Roadkill show

[@montanafuller6266]

Man didn’t even know lol

[@ANotSoHotRodGarage]

Always been amazed how guy will carry parts for years instead of taking 10 or 20 bucks less. I seen the same guy have the same parts at a Harley swap meet for 5 years.

[@scottbenke7182]

Long Beach used to be my favorite auto parts swapmeet when I lived in SoCal. Glad that it is still going strong.

[@txnetcop]

That is something I miss about CA. There were 20 or 25 of us from ADP Sam Ramon used to go on Swap Meet Sat. I bet I swapped more hotrod parts than anyone. Sacramento was my favorite rod and parts swap meet! Thanks this was fun!

[@SHOdown13]

The size of that swap meet is incredible. Here in South Jersey they're hardly a quarter of the size. 1 recommendation next time, slow your camera panning down, some of us are trying to scan the tables just to see what's there.

[@dogsense3773]

We have 40 million people in this state,tons of parts every where!

[@bongkidemil4203]

U could just pause the video, if there are parts that u wanna look at for a longer time.

[@neil6212]

Lots of neat stuff...but I'm blown away at the prices people pay today. I graduated HS in 1960 and thought stuff was high then! I've been a Ford rodder for a long time, starting with a 1956 T-Bird, moving on to a 289/271 Mustang in 1965. One think that I haven't had direct contact with would be the 410 engines. I hear them called FE, and also MEL. I've also been told that very few parts will interchange, and the deck is not at right angles to the bore. BTW, I'm 80, and still fascinated with what is now being done in the hobby! And hey, I still have Fords, A Focus SES coupe, an F-250 with about 15k on it. Plus my hanger queen, a 50th Anniversary design 03 T-Bird. Pretty minty, and I keep it upon the lift, so I don't pile stuff on it like so many hidden away collectable cars and trucks!

[@williamhelms9942]

Freiburger! Cool meet, Craig!

[@mickeykreg]

Thanks for haulin us along in your wagon. I luuuv the SoCal swapmeets. PDX in April is awesome good too. Haven't been to PATE but it's on the list.

[@JaredR1996]

Never been to a swap meet before, but I can see end up getting a lot of stuff. As always your videos are awesome Craig. Keep it up

[@HammerPowered]

Love swap meets, was just at one this past weekend and scored a couple things for my truck projects.

[@OtisENGINEuity]

OMFG Freiburger actually sold parts instead of just hoarding them away? What has the world become? Those rusty valve covers.. a couple minutes in a bead blaster and then paint and there'll be nothing wrong with them.

[@marksearcy9708]

Awesome swap meet. I would be broke in min. Congrats on the part's score. I guess you know who the guy was that sold out of parts. That was David Frieburger from HOT ROD MAGAZINE and Motor trend. You never know who you will meet.

[@Justa4banger79]

DUUUUUUUUUUUUDE!!!!! I totally forgot about that swap meet!!! ITS BEEN LIKE 15 YEARS!!! WOW!! I miss Cali 😢

[@maxnichols1727]

Great video as usual. I saw a lot of stuff I wanted. Been keeping up with your other sneak peaks of the F100. I'm excited, cannot wait to hear it.

[@jimkinker1200]

The scatter shield was a great deal. Seems like the eng plate is always missing….👍🏻

[@johnsarian_cu]

Amazing haul. The guy who hauled all those manifolds and laid them out only to maybe take most home deserves a beer. LOL

[@ryanlove5332]

how often is something like this on? im in Australia, so if i was comming over it would be nice to try and time it.

[@davidcatlette9697]

Great haul at the swap meet ! Damn and I look for six months too try and find a set of adj roller rockers like those for my 390 ! Next time I getting in contact with you and pay too have them shipped to me ! 😳

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Cool, love a good swap meet!!!! 👍👍

[@flames_6265]

One great thing about Cali is the swap meets!

[@dilanbashaw4235]

Finally new video! This is what I waiting for!! Let’s go

[@nicholasfisher2595]

Awesome video Craig! I've always wanted to go to a swap meet!🤘🤘

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

Before you go to the next swap meet you might wanna get a bigger wagon. I can not tell you how much I miss the California swap meets.

[@danderson9881]

Always protect the fire Deck- where the head gasket goes, the rest is easy.

[@chris85mora]

Hey it’s David F! Lol was gonna say Alan Jackson with the stash and Ricky Van Shelton without.

[@kicon7714]

That last teaser shot of the F100... 👍

[@kevinwright1551]

Vary awesome indeed. Keep up the great work.

[@marcosaldaco-perez1532]

We have almost the same car brotha love your channel you help me out alot

[@kodabear_46]

The El Camino at 3:10 - 3:15 was just on hoonigan's channel. The engine setup on that thing is definitely something you don't see everyday.

[@thomassmith2239]

The left hand drive early C10 is also on Hoonigan.

[@jimkinker1200]

Best stuff is when trucks are being unloaded. You were late. Love swap meets.

[@mcdonaldm73]

Freiburger's dollar box had a Holley blue pump in it. No wonder he sold out quick. He must sell stuff at killer prices!

[@gregvanderboom5011]

Was this last month??? Cause I was thinking about going August 14... I used to park in that parking lot every day when I worked at McDonnell Douglas.

[@FordEra]

This was awesome!

[@apexmetalrestoration2805]

Wow man, I’m envious of the swap meets you guys get out there. In Phx, Az there’s an auto swap every first Sunday at the local community college.. we’re lucky if we get 10-15 vendors 😆 it’s just too hot out here.

[@nickgrillo4830]

It used to be big, but this last Sunday even with decent weather it was dead. It doesn’t help that the cost to sell stuff there has been increased pretty significantly

[@davidtyce2269]

Dang it I misses another swap meet I'm a local to San Diego and have a 1966 f250 we are building right now always looking for fellow enthusiasts to hang with were those some Harland sharps

[@robertbarkey3194]

I had that happen too n I went to an Estate Sale n I wasn't going to go n my neighbor said let's go n so we did n I only had $175 on me n I ended up Buy the whole Garage n all the Parts n Tools in the Living n a 1964 Chevy Truck with Big Block 454 n 5 Transmissions n it was a Hot Rod Build shop n all Tools n Upolstrey n equipment n alot More n it took me 4 days to pick it all up n I ended only paying $1500 for Everything n I Sold some of stuff n parts n got all my money Back n I had alot of stuff left n kept the Truck n I got offered $5000 for truck

[@WeaselBurrito]

With Qualcomm long gone, is there an alternate location for the auto swap meet down in SD or does everybody have to go to LA now?

[@jeffgibson184]

🇺🇸👍 good haul of stuff, that skinny intake manifold was for a 2.8 V6 ford I picked on up 15 years ago at pic a part for $22.00 sold it 5 years later thinking I’m never going to need it for $225.00 Now I have 2 motors that could use them. Can’t find used and new was $600.00-800.00 2 years ago👍🥩🥔🌽🥛🍪💤

[@frankm8533]

I use to have a couple Rangers laying around with the 2.8 V6

[@robertjean659]

One of my fav swaps at long beach. 🇦🇺🇦🇺👍👍

[@luckent47]

Swap meets rule. Making me miss sd. Gotta bust out there this winter

[@sogood4u489]

Freiburger is awesome he is still just a regular guy.

[@xozindustries7451]

Good haul. Freighburger said people were stealing stuff from him at the swap meet

[@saucesamurai]

[@charlesshamseldin9555]

[@michaelbottomley2520]

I like the Ford truck with the blue engine in it even the steering wheel is on the right side for me

[@jimolson8424]

I am amazed by the FE parts at this swap meet. I would be like a kid in a candy store....

[@BackroomBurrito]

That’s awesome you met freiburger. Pretty sure this is the swap meet that he posted that he had a bunch of stuff stolen sadly

[@fordfandiecast]

Great finds

[@RoostertheMazda]

Casual freiburger

[@robertbarkey3194]

You need to keep a couple bungee straps on the wagon 😆

[@joeschlotthauer840]

What is that at 2:10 (flathead)...

[@modularsynthguy6694]

I live right down the street from Vets!

[@tompreciado863]

Next time you go to the LB swap meet, go get some burritos at Ramona’s in Lakewood or King taco in Long Beach.

[@johnhazard5231]

Like the big scores at swap meets

[@JohnnyAFG81]

Swap meets are a plethora of hidden treasures. If you find them on time.

[@peterpower0495]

i like how you just casually ran into frieburger at the swap meet

[@Mercmad]

5:46 Ford V6 capri etc ? super rare if it is.

[@timspicer3270]

😊

[@Olds_Gold]

Nothing wrong with having a ton of trim. :-)

[@jamieround2072]

u know u should have brought a taller ( deepeer ) & way wider pull wagon's & lot's of strap's too hold it all down on the wagon's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@markmoats5702]

I must say I haven't been a sub up until recently but with a mustache you look like a cop lol

[@JonnyMopar]

Pretty cool.

[@haroldmordt4421]

Guess your gonna need a bigger boat, or excuse me, a bigger wagon!

[@kmnremtp]

Where in the world are you going to find 10” steelies?! I thought I was the only one in the world with a pair of those!!!

[@project71ventura69]

the dude at 3:58 looks like the guy off of 1320

[@91rss]

way better than anything my cousin goes to in Florida. Daytona was a waste of time . he spent literally $5 and $1 was for a cold water and $4 for 2 rattle cans of primer

[@todddenio3200]

When you were talking with the guy about the valve covers and told him you weren’t sure if he said $25 or if he said $45, and he was still replying back to you when you cut him off and offered him $40, you offered it too soon. If you actually listened to him he was starting to tell you that he wanted $45 but $25 would be acceptable. Lesson learned from this ? Let people finish speaking and don’t cut them off because it could cost you in one way or another. Yes $5 was saved but savings of $20 was thrown away for it

[@kmnremtp]

You ain’t slammed that little red wagon yet????

[@gilbertwashburn7095]

I like those 390 GT heads I found a pair at a state sale about 2 months ago already to go knew everything the woman said her husband died everything going50 bucks

[@jimarruda9788]

Still looks like a Joe dirt mullet to me

[@bob-o5206]

At 3:55 was that Dave Freiburger?

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

Bob-o Yes.

[@greenshovel]
