Spring Carlisle -- with pics.

[pajeff02]

Spent the last 3 days at Carlisle and had a great time. In addition to the usual parts, tools and garage supplies, I came home with a car from there for the first time. I posted the details in this thread: http://www.ls1.com/forums/showthread.php?t=135740 Saw a whole lot of cool cars, ran into one other site member at the UMI booth, and enjoyed a gyro for lunch every day -- one of my favorite things to do there. Other than a minor mess up at our hotel... "But sir, you called and cancelled your reservation." And then two other stories she made up trying to explain why we didn't have a room despite the faxed confirmation in my hand, it was a good trip. Here are the pics:

Started by looking at a '70 Buick GS Stage 1 that the seller wanted $54,000 for.





Nice Pace Car for $20,000.





Pics of various cars around the fairgrounds.



































Here's a 1,900 original mile 30th Anniversary Edition. Asking $26,500 for it.





Almost forgot, I also happened to run into Eliminator and his friend on Saturday.





Yes, I know the pics are all GM products as that is where our interests are. I'll try to do better next time and mix it up a bit.

No pictures of your new toy?

Some more pics:

I just think these are neat -- De Tomaso Pantera, with what I believe is a Ford 351 behind the seats. You can see the air cleaner assembly poking up over the rear deck.































^^ This last car was a bit of an oddity -- had both coilovers and leaf springs and the rear was off center quite a bit to the right.

Awesome pics Jeff. That GN is money right there as there weren't many offered in T-Top form. All those cars are worthy IMO.

Nice pics. I'm kinda partial to the Hurst Olds too. My bro has an 84 with an Olds 350.

Yup. When I saw the pic I began to remember when I was in Scotrun, Pa two years ago for vacation. Saw a H/O at a shop with no motor but the body looked immaculate.

Hurst Olds, Grand National, Monte Carlo SS -- all cars I have wanted to own for years. On the Olds, the lightening rod shifters are super cool imo.
