goingto Fall Carlisle swap meet

[GoMangoBoys]

I am heading to the Carlisle Fall Swap meet.  I have several other cars, so I was planning to go for some time, but now that I bought a Challenger 2 weeks ago, my shopping list is a lot longer.  Can anyone recommend some Mopar vendors that are typically there?

The Spring swap meet is two days, but the Fall 1 day swap meet is nearly as big and just as good IMO.  I think it's one of the best mopar swap meets on the west coast and I'm sure you'll find lots of good stuff.  Show up really early for the best deals, but lots of good stuff can be found all day.

If you don't find what you are looking for, post a list and I'm pretty sure someone here will have what you need.

I think he's asking about the Fall all general swap at Carlisle.  I'm going, but I don't expect to find many Mopar specific vendors.  It's massive, but it's 90 percent other makes.  Still a great time strolling through acres and acres of car stuff.

Sorry, my mistake.  I think Fall Fling when I hear Fall swap meet.

I've never been to Carlisle in the Fall, but I bet it's well worth the time to go!

Looks like a fun time! I'd go if I was closer!

Fall Carlisle is more for Chevys and Fords, just like Spring, lots of venders very few Mopar, plenty of cheap tools and cleaning equipment , some decent venders like Eastwood, etc

The general swap at the spring and fall Carlisle is amazing.  The entire fairgrounds consists of vending spaces, except for the car corral which takes most of the area covered by new Challengers at the Chrysler show.  Mopar stuff is a needle in a haystack at both spring and fall, but I usually find a tidbit or two.

Yea don't expect to find much Mopar stuff there. It's a shame but you never know. You would think since there has been so little Mopar stuff there for years at the spring and fall shows that one big vender would show up and clean up being the only one there.

Thought I'd post a follow up.  Went to the swap on a Friday.  Beautiful weather.  I didn't find anything tasty though.  Bought a busted up 69 RR Airgrabber setup for a friend for $35.  Also, got a great show price from Inline Tube on an E-Brake cable set.  Saved about $40.

I wanted to give an update on my trip to Fall Carlisle.  I drove out on Wednesday and attended the show on Thursday and Friday.  Thursday was rain all day.  Friday was beautiful.  If I would have been looking for Mustang or Camaro parts, I would have hit the mother lode.  However, Mopar parts were few and far between.  I would say less than 10 vendors had anything Mopar, and less than 5 had a lot of Mopar.  Now, in fairness, I may have walked by a lot of Mopar that I did not recognize since I am new to Mopar.  I was planning on attending the swap meet, even before I bought a Challenger a few weeks ago.    It is a great swap meet, just light on Mopar.  I did, however, find one vendor that had a bunch of stuff.  He and his wife told me that I was their best customer of the show so far.  I bought a 833 tranny, a big block bell housing, a z bar and a decklid for the Challenger.

Nice buys!!!  Looks like you found some great stuff.

Nice stash.... You need to go to Chrysler's @ Carlisle if you want to find parts for your Challenger
