Met Some Members @ Carlisle
Carlisle was fantastic yesterday! The swap area was the biggest I've seen in a while with an unbelievable amout of A body parts for sale! Three years ago I can remember asking about A body parts and getting laughed at.... :shock: Maybe A bodies are getting popular because eveyone else is tired of Road Runners & Challengers overrunning every show? :D
The show field (OK,the A BODY field....) was full of very nice cars. I even saw an LL1 turquiose `68 Barracuda! Now I have a good idea of what my car will look like finished, instead of being the cover car for shitbox monthly :tongue:
As for A Body board members I only met 3, Whitey, ABodyJoe, & Sweet69. I'm sure there were others. I had my A Body shirt hanging off my belt loop most of the day since it was beautiful out and I caught a nice tan. I spent some time talking with Eric (Whitey) as soon as I walked in and met up with Joe & 69 later in the day. ( BTW Joe, I bought a new MSD distributor @ Mancini's) Nice people :thumleft:
I also saw a neat project for cheap in the car corral: A mid'`60's A-100 panel van without any side doors, just the front & rear doors... It looked decent, and at $2,000 it was mighty tempting. But I know what the wife would have said... :eye:
All in all, a great day out. It was nice meeting everyone!
