I quit going to car shows in 1999 when I was 20. I rather drive around and cruise during the times a car show was NOT in town rather than sit and watch people scratch up my ride or try to deal with heavy traffic and idiots acting/driving like fools putting me and my car in danger. Didn't bother with swap meets, especially after eBay came on the scene. Not going to find much for a '59 wagon, anyway, so it wasn't worth paying the fees to enter nor the time to dig through a bunch of junk. Until a couple of years ago, I lived less than 2 miles from a very popular/famous fairground in the bay area where Goodguys and other car related meets were always setting up shop year round.
