ABOUT THE SWAP MEET
The Abq Swap Meet was established in 2017 and is held at the Albuquerque Dragway semiannually. It has been operated by Michael Valenzuela and Hawgz Grill. The swap meet was started to give all car and truck enthusiasts a place to sell and find those rare and much needed parts. It has grown much over the past years and has become a great place for vendors and spectators alike. With a consistent vendor count of over 400 and growing spectators are sure to come away with some treasures. If you are looking to sell anything auto related whether it be vehicles, auto parts or auto collectibles this is the place for you. This event is built to please the whole family with food vendors and a car show included you are sure to be entertained.
