    Searched for dates and locations of 2014 swap meets in and around Sacramento/Auburn/Stockton with no luck.

    I do know of the BIG ones: April 26 and August 9 Arco Arena

    Anyone have a list of dates for the smaller ones such as old WX now near Ford museum, Model A one in Auburn, etc...

    Thanks.

    buick meet was yesterday at consumnes, not many people outside of sacramento area knew about it, when I went to pay for my space I told them I knew several people who did not know about it, they told me well it was in the sacramento bee, when this meet was under the freeway a lot of buyers and venders came from the bay area. the last few years it has changed, not many venders like before, if they don't promote it to people outside of sacramento im afraid its going to get worse.

    Roseville is shown in this months Cruisin News As Sat the 8th,gates at 9am, $5 admission,$40 spaces. Proceeds go to Race track repairs. This I believe is the second annual for this. Last year it rained and it was a no show event. So I wouldn't drive from far for this one. Just down the street for me so i'll follow up

    Glen, it was Consumnes last Sunday not ARC and hope you were wrong on the Auburn one too... It is usually on a Sunday also bummed if I missed it...

    Why is it that all of the sudden everyone wants to charge admission to swap meets when they used to be free for buyers? $10 for Turloc sucked but you knew there was a chance to find good things... I live in Roseville where this one takes place and would be VERY surprised if it is worth admission... I am sure that I will still go and hope for the best.

    Amen on the Thompson Flyer. How about we start a 2014 NorCal swap meet thread like last years 2013 thread? Neither Stockton nor Roseville appears on Craigs list, a disservice to both buyers and sellers especially if they are charging admission. Should be one in Santa Rosa coming up soon.

    Anyone know why the Sacramento meet (4-26-14) is now on Saturday instead of Sunday like years past? Just wondering.

    Sacramento is about to get hit with a pretty good storm. I would imagine that tomorrow's swap in Roseville is going to be cancelled?
