Posted Carlisle Shows on the Calendar

[VRJoe]

I posted a few of the Carlisle shows on the calendar. The Import-Kit/Replicar is the one not to miss, but then the others are good also.

 

I figured now everybody can plan on getting to the Import-Kit/Replicar show and HybridZ can win the Best Attendance Award. Hope you have your hats and shirts .....

Is there generally a lot of Z related stuff at this show? I've always considered going but haven't made it yet. Thanks for the info.

Not much anymore. It seems like now everyone is selling their Z stuff on eBay. Most vendors are geared towards the British sports car, although the number of people selling Saab and Volvo parts is surprising. We have been going for the past six or seven years. Several of us club members leave Knoxville at midnight on Friday night and get there just as the gates are opening on Sat morning.

 

I like most foreign car makes so I go mainly to check out the car corrals. Definitely the most Datsun Roadsters you will find together out side of California. There’s a lot of interesting kit cars and kit car vendors as well.

 

But every now and then you will come across a unique old Datsun part or memorabilia. It partly why I go back each year (as well as to stock up on Yuengling beer).

You can find all kinds of stuff in the flea market area, lot of tool vendors, Eastwood usually has a booth as does Maguires. Lots of interesting cars to see, some good, some not so good. This year it looked as though it was a MG show, MG parts all over the place. You never know what you'll find. I did see a few z parts, but who knows for '05.
