It's a swapmeet for mostly 510s. See Ratsun

There used to be a car fee, or one if you were a spectator or a seller.
Yes, Garm, the Ratsun crowd will love you (do not wash your car before you go) :)

I just did all my engine bay grommets. With black duct tape.

1. Park the car facing the sun.
2. Wedge head under dash. Sunglasses are optional.
3. Note placement of all streaming rays of golden sunlight. **Dusty interior is a plus here.
4. Tape up all the holes from the engine bay side.
5. Done. You've officially been "ratted". 8)

That is similar to how I initially repaired my Impala floorboards. Work on it at night, shine light from bottom, bondo the shafts of light! Sand and paint with Rustoleum - Done.
About 15 years later, I had the floor pans cut out and replaced. Not a bad repair for about $4 worth of bondo!
"When all else fails, force prevails!" Ummm, we're gonna need a bigger hammer here.

Although it is a 510 crowd, there are a couple of Roadsters that appear. Used to be free, but the parking lot is jammed by 9am, so they charge $5 to park in the lot (it's tiny.) Otherwise street parking.

I went to the last one and happened to buy a couple of gems. But Roadster parts will be few and far between.
