    I have been to the Pomona Swap several time and never gone to the Big 3.....I want to either go to the next Pomona or wait until the Big 3. Which is better ?

    Big 3 if you want parts. Pomona for a driver I would say.

    Not looking for a car or any specific parts really. Just looking for a good swap to walk and check out.

    Man I've always wanted to check out both swaps. Moved out 7 months ago from Florida. Now that I'm in Phoenix might have to roll to both. Just to be sure Big 3 is once a year and Pamona happens six or seven times? We'll see if the moon and stars align to make this happen.

    Big 3 is the best!
     
  9. Kerry,

    My first response would be Big 3 hands down but looking at your profile you have a '56 Chevy and I would change my vote to Pomona. I have '31, '32 and '37 Fords and the Big 3 is the one I would choose. I do not even bother going to Pomona any more. I am 40 miles from Pomona and 125 miles from an Diego. Do you have any interest in the earlier Fords?

  10. big 3, people are nice, lots of good stuff (unlike the toys/clothes at pomona) plus it's only once a year.

    I think I've been sunburned the last 3 years, and IF it rains? I'll be there, rummaging in the rain! :)
