I've been to the Indy swap meet.  How does this compare to that?

I've never been to Indy Cylinder heads show, so I can't tell you.
This swap meet isn't big, but all Mopar.  You'll often see some rare and cool stuff, last year I bought a nice 70 Challenger bumper core, and the same guy had a couple NOS T/A stripe sets.  Another guy had an NOS takeoff assembly line Mopar green oil filter.  Not cheap though.
I'd say approximately 40-50 vendors there.  As is usually the case, other vendors and various vultures snatch up the rare bargains from guys unloading their trucks during set up.
It's a great place to sell, I turned a lot of stuff into cash the times I rented a spot.
If I wasn't so lazy and if I still had a truck I'd really like to set up a table there again to get rid if some of my clutter!
