Nice looking clean, been off a car since the '80s-all I could get was $80-and he wanted a free set of cheap valve covers thrown in. Had a box of HEI distributors(5-6 in there), guy offers $20 for the box-no thanks!

First let me say... I am headed to your area for my next swap meet. Wow! that is some good stuff.
Second... as an example. There were a pair of 461 heads (not 461X) that a guy had in Pomona and again in Bakersfield at the March Meet. They had no valves, uncleaned, just bare heads... $400
same guy had HEI distributors for $60 w/o cap/rotor, $75 with cap/rotor

I didn't notice anything sold or gone from his stuff from when I first saw him in Pomona to when I saw him at the March Meet.

I still kinda like the Denver Swap Meet in February (its indoors). I bought a PERFECT Pass Side 68 front fender for $40.00 and that is what he wanted for it, I didn't even negotiate... I just said SOLD.
The only issue with that Swap Meet is sometimes the 400 mile trip can get sketchy from SD to Denver in February. It still has a lot of trinket stuff, but the size and quality make up for it, oh and indoors in Feb.
