Hi Dave, I went to the Portland swap meet for 26 years in a row as a vendor. You'll find parts for everything up there, unless it's changed drastically in the last 20 years. I quit going up there 20 years ago because the cost of the trip and motels was taking everything I made at the meet, and I used to do very well up there, but I was on the road for 8 days doing it! Nothing bad to say about the meet though, it's run pretty well by the people who put it on. The bad thing might be finding a motel room as they're usually reserved a year in advance. Sat down one time with a friend of mine, who used to do Hershey, and we figured that Portland was about 1/4 the size of Hershey. As a vendor you are given a list of rules, one of them is, "you must have at least 50% of your parts for pre 1960 autos and trucks" another was " no sunglasses, t-shirts, chain saw statues, etc are allowed" they try to keep it restricted to old car parts. You'll find as much Hudson exposure as they had market share when thy were in business is a good rule of thumb and that holds for other makes as well. You'll also find a good portion of Canadian parts, at least I always did. Anyway good luck and enjoy, it's a great meet.

I went a couple years ago as well. As Mike said, LOTS of walking between the two different spots and the shuttles are a big help and full.
Lots of car stuff but very very little for Hudson and almost zilch for 30's years. Even the Hudson spot(s) didnt really have much for parts.
Best idea is to find out who is going and have them bring what you need.
