Category: Carlisle Ford Nationals

It’s been a long, hard winter. So, it’s been good to start thinking about the show season ahead. This week I put together the updates to the site regarding planning for getting the feature cars together at the 2011 Carlisle Ford Nationals to be held in Carlisle, PA from...

Believe it or not, it is not too early to start thinking about Carlisle Ford Nationals in June 2011. I received an email recently from them that they are having a sale staring on Friday, December 17. In a separate email from them they had a little detail on club arrangements...

Tonight I went through all of my photos and picked out some to share. You can find them in my PicasaWeb Carlisle 2010 photo album. I never want to have a single copy of any computer file and this especially true for my photos. I lost pictures once and...

This was the most stormy Carlisle All-Ford Nationals in my fours years of attendance. But, we didn’t let that get us down. We still had a great time. This year I tried something different with my use of twitter to post pictures and short updates as the show went...

I meant to pass along this tidbit from Carlisle about some reproduction interior items. TMI Classic Automotive Interiors was there showing their white pony headrests and white “feature car” door panels. I checked their website and found no mention of these items (there availability was mentioned on this site...

It was another great year at Carlisle. The three days just flew by and I didn’t want it to end. I guess, it’s always good to end something when you still want more. Attendance was good again this year even. It breaks down as follows: Jeff G. (from NJ)...

No, it’s not what you are thinking. No problems with the police. The trip into Carlisle was pretty uneventful. Just some heavy construction delays for about 6 miles on 81 before exit 159. I made the trip with 5pt0joe. He owns a 1990 SSP so I did have a...
