    My experience has been a mixed bag. Its held where the Round Up is and occupies the barn where the RU held the mini bike races as well their Swap Meet in addition to the parking lot behind. I would say its mostly auto, 75% to about 25% crafts and garage sale stuff. About six months ago I bought a few magazines, a Pearl beer cooler, a PBR pint glass and a cowl to a model A for a patch... The auto runs all eras... If youre free hit it up...

    Now for my shameless self promotion... A buddy of mine and myself are trying to launch a monthly automotive swap meet held in Austin... Our first will be held on the 6th...

    Here is our thread... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=543214

    It's not big enough to pay for, and you have to pay to get in.
