Anyone been to this before? What kind of stuff do people have? I have a lot of project bikes (mostly 60's/70's lightweight schwinns) and buckets of parts. Would this be worth my time?

If the weather is decent Sunday, I'll be there hunting/buying. Never been there before
Hoping to find some ratty parts cheap. Do forum members,get any special discount at your swap space ?

I've never been there before either. I dont have any "cool" parts, just brakes, a few seats, bars, forks, etc. and a bunch of schwinn lightweights. I'm willing to deal. Looking for anything in particular?
