Any swap meet is good if you are able to find just one trinket that you want/need. For me, it was a nice pair of old school atlas style mags with the sharp spokes. The $60/pair price made it worth the walk

My .02 ............
1) EBAY has changed traditional swap meets forever. Any seller with eye sight and a computer, can SEE the unbelievable high prices that misc used and N.O.S parts have sold for on EBAY. 2) I am not suggesting that Carlisle Productions and its show scheduling should take precedent over ALL others.... but why must misc other G.M. clubs/organazations be so arrogant/ridgid and not work with Carlisle to grow the G.M. show. 3) The ACA Camaro show this year did have a good Saturday turnout, but Friday and Sunday was minimal. The Camaro Nationals is argueably the best/biggest Camaro show in the country every year. How many Camaro enthusiasts live with a 2,3,4 hour drive of Carlisle???? Is a one night motel gonna break your budget. On site camping is cheap and fun. Ask the www.nastyz28.com crowd who is turning this into a annual big gathering. I just will never understand how REAL G.M./Camaro enthusiasts cant schedule THIS event, and take off from work, school, etc and BE THERE to support THIS important show/event !!!!!!!! Regards to all who extended a handshake to me.........

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Is one night motel gonna break your budget? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Id have to disagree since the 59.00 hotel rooms at carlisle increase thier rates to 169.00 with a 2/3 night minimum. add taxes and such and its 600.00 to sleep in a roach motel for the weekend. Thats alot to pay for a weak swap meet and alot of overpriced cars outside that cant be bought right. The sole bright spot for the show are the show cars inside,but i dont think id drop over 1000.00 in 2 days solely to view them. Ebay has done alot to contribute to the weak attendance at swap meets by both vendors and spectators, however one thing ebay cant offer is a venue to look at some nicely restored cars,which this show certainly has. |
