OK, forgive me for being dumb. Where is Spring Carlisle and what is happening? I have been looking for a show close by to check out some other trucks for ideas etc.

The spring and fall Carlisle meets are huge and are the motherload of swap meets (over 5000 venders), BUT if your into trucks, all kinds, sizes, types, stockers, customs, lowriders, 18 wheelers, 4+4's, antiques, classics, prostreet, for sale and for show and hundreds of venders, all truck related, this is the place to go! Carlisle Fairgrounds, June 28-30th. Ask any truck-nut who's been there and they'll tell you it's great!

Fast,at the moment, I plan on going to the all truck in June. May be subject to change due to work schedule, but I have booked it off. I go through Ohio,and snake around. Been to Hershey a few times, never Carlisle. Kind of excited to go. If you can make it over a state I could pick you up on the way.

All of us from the board that will be going to the All Truck Nationals at Carlisle Pa should set up a time to meet over the weekend. I recommend using "GMC Paul's" site for a home base. When the date gets closer we can find out what # his site will be.
Also,,,, not far from the fairgrounds is a place called "Rods Roadhouse Cafe". Cool place,,,good eats,,,beers,,,and plenty of nostalgia,,,a must do if you go! ------------------ 1971 C10 swb stepside 350/700R4/3.73posi Killingworth, Connecticut [This message has been edited by Gordo (edited April 10, 2002).]
