Is anyone going to the Carlisle Pa. swap meet this month?

I'm wondering if it's worth a ten hour round trip for some '71 Demon parts that may or may not be there.

Heres the link, for interested parties:

Most vendors start packing up Saturday.
Mopars in July is the better show for parts.

Yea it would be just something to do with the boy ....
Same with the Mopar show it hard to take off a Saturday one of my busiest days

Sunday will be a ghost town hard to justify that ride. I live close and the last day of any of them is dead. July is the one you will find parts. This is all makes. Want to see a huge swap meet go to the AACA one in Hershey in October. Mostly pree 50 but just amazing!

Yea it when you get the best deals on stuff people don't want to take back
On vacation in july so its hard to take that Saturday off ...

I found the best day to find stuff is usually the first day or the day before when they are setting up.

I do spring, fall and vend at Chrysler but have been to them all except the imports. Interesting how each make the owners are definitely different.

Oh sure if your looking for something special

 

[halifaxhops]

You just never know what spring and fall will have. Mostly GM from my experience but those guys have some other makes for sale dirt cheap.

I haven’t been to Spring Carlisle in a couple years but might make it this year. It’s generally an enjoyable day of looking but there is a ton of rummage sale non-car crap mixed in throughout and finding decent Mopar parts is a needle in a haystack exercise. You are much more likely to find what you’re after during the July show IMO.

I would think if its there your get a better price
