Does the Spring show in Carlisle in April typically have many vendors with 67-72 Chevy truck parts? Never been before but considering it this year.
Thanks.

Re: Spring Carlisle ?
I usually go to the Spring, Truck Show and Fall Carlisle. If you're looking for used parts, Spring and Fall by far are the biggest events. Although there are a lot of different makes (Chevy,Ford,Dodge...) of parts and vendors to go through before you find the guy that has what you need. If you're looking for new parts I'd say go to any of the 3 that I mentioned. There are vendors that sell new (repop) parts at mostly all these events. It will be alot less walking and other stuff to go through if you go to the Truck Show(Can see it all in 1 day easy). Could take up to 2 days to walk through all the aisles and look at Spring and Fall. Also better get there before the gates even open if you want close parking.

Re: Spring Carlisle ?
In my opinion Spring is the best. People have been cooped up all winter... and have had time to replenish their parts stash. So they have more parts rather than at the end of the year when they have done been to who knows how many swap meets selling their parts. Just my 2 cents...

Re: Spring Carlisle ?
I think Friday is the best day. It takes them a while to unload all their parts so early in the week they may not have it all out so you can see what all they have. And by Saturday afternoon they're starting to pack them back up to head out on Sunday. Again thats just my opinion.

Re: Spring Carlisle ?
I've gone a few times, usually taking lots of cash, but for the most part, everyone selling thinks they are sitting on a gold mine. I also went to the Canfield OH swap meet last year looking for truck parts. Came home empty handed because everyone selling seemed to have Barrett/Jackson syndrome.

Re: Spring Carlisle ?
Quick question but I was planning to go, mainly to look at the paddock for a project car or truck. Are there many C-10s there for sale? Enough to make it worth the 1.5 hour drive?
