Duncan Automotive Swap Meet
The Duncan Swap Meet is conveniently located in the heart of the US in southwestern Oklahoma. There is a strong muscle car and antique car tradition in the area with many car clubs and enthusiasts. Oklahomans are can-do people - they find old cars and parts to either rebuild or take to swap meets for others to complete a project. The moderate climate and minimal use of road salts helps local vehicles stay rust free.
