  • We traveled from Reno, NV to Turlock CA to take in the 2024 Turlock Antique Car swap meet. This is the 57th year for the event, and one of the largest swap meets for antique car on the West coast. I've been going to Turlock since 1998, and always enjoy looking for rusty Model A Ford gold. Come along for the ride, and lets find some treasures together.

      Treasure Michael, treasure!
      The junk was all the stuff you left behind. So glad you’ve been holding and caring for the treasure all these years, protecting it until the next treasure custodian takes over!🤪🤪🤣

    The bewildered "you can start this thing?" at 7:30 was me! Incredible swap meet, can't wait to go to next one.

      Wow! Glad I caught your cameo! That’s great that you found yourself in the video. We had a great time, a bit far of a drive for us given the purchases, but as I state in the video it’s more about having a day with car people. Thanks for watching and letting us know we “discovered” a future TH-cam star.🤪

    That was entertaining. Thanks for taking us city slickers through a good honest swap meet. I agree, that 34 coupe was the pick of the bunch.

      Thank you for your comment, glad you enjoyed the video. Turlock Swap Meet is always a good time. Whether you make a big purchase or just a few small one. 😁

    Enjoyed the video, I would rather go to a swap meet than go to a movie. I love swap meets.

      Hello Harvey,
      Swap meets have mysteries and surprises around every corner, movies usually only have one or two.
      We enjoy them very much too, even though I’m not in need of many parts these days. Always fun to “window” shop.

      Kara,
      If you need things for your old pickup, you’re sure to find it there. Even if you don’t need anything, you’ll still find it there!🤪

      It’s a two day event, majority of folks just go on Saturday. But Sunday is when the best deals are made.

    I've never been but have been talking about going for the better part of 20 year now. Being from Southern California, this swap meet is a "must do"........maybe next year!

    Turlock is probably the best swap meet in California to find Model A parts.

    • @modelajim1930
      @modelajim1930  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Rick,
      I agree completely. Lots of parts, and being California, they’re not all rusted out. I’ve gone to some Oregon swap meets and so many of the parts that have been stored outside are too rusty to use. Did you go??

      Yeah Land Rover is a brand I haven’t seen there represented. But there’s plenty of other treasures to look through. Hope you had a good time anyway. Thank you for your viewing and comment.

    The 31 A coupe with a Mitchell overdrive for 15.5K seemed like a no brainer. What do the overdrives sell for these days? The 34 roadster was amazing, so was the price 65k

    • @modelajim1930
      @modelajim1930  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      A Mitchell overdrive is about $3400 now and a wait of 14+ months. It’s a supply chain problem with some of the components.

      Which one….
      The 1933, 1934, or the modified 1935
