:twothumbsup:
I actually had plane tickets, a rental car and a hotel laid on for this year. However my rental property had other plans for me. Two days before, on Wednesday the 11th, a part of the plumbing system took a dump on me. :pullinghair: I spent the better part of the Carlisle weekend in a nasty dark dank crawl-space making repairs instead of going to the show. :help: I hope to make it next year. :handshake:
I was not planning to go this year but changed my mind at the last minute. I was not looking forward to the 11 hour drive to get there. I been going to other Carlisle shows for 25 years.
I had so much fun this year, I decided I will be going back in 2019.
Now If I can just find a good room for Thursday and Friday.
I'm surprised the countdown at the top of the page hasn't started over yet.
Already booked my room at the Park Inn again. I really like that place...

This brings up an interesting point.
Chris is pushing us to join him at the Park Inn. We've had our location in New Cumberland for years. The absolute positive is we always have that top parking lot to ourselves for the pizza party.
Any feedback is welcomed. We did deviate in 2013 to a more modern(expensive) place. We still found a way to have a party in the parking lot, and we outlasted those light weight Charger guys by a few hours. :D
I haven't missed a year since 1993 so I'm pretty sure if I'm alive, I'll be going :alan2cents:
I REALLY recommend it. I've stayed there before. Great restaurant out front ( It was an Irish Pub)and a night club as well. Huge "party area " out back , even has a fire pit. Huge pool etc....

I would love to go next year but it all depends on finances. We'll see....
Yep
It's on my list of things to do. Thanks for the reminder! :D

The countdown has been added to the header bar! :bigthumb: Let the party begin in 358 day, 4 hours, 55 minutes and 11 seconds.

They also have an indoor pool, there's about 3 outdoor bars with a beach volley ball court, corn Hole game, a 6 person beer pong table, and there was a full blown country band playing in the bar. There were also about 200 people scattered throughout the parking lots doing their own thing. If you go online it is about $169/night but if you call and tell them you are with the show they will give you a rate of $120/night.

Hey Crocha - did you get lunch at the tent this year?! I remember seeing you once, but I don't think I saw you again all weekend! I hope you had a good time!
Can someone help me answer some questions. I have never been to Carlisle.
Besides food, plane, and hotel costs, what should I expect to pay for attending?
1. Do I have to rent a car? Is there plenty of parking at the event?
2. How much does it cost to enter? To park?
3. Do most ebodies.org folks stay at the Park Inn? Is it close to the event?
4. Where do I fly into to?
5. What day should I fly in? I was thinking of just attending for 2 days.
Thanks.
The event is growing on me.
If you can get to the hotel someone can provide transport to & from so no you do not have to rent a car .
maybe $20 for the weekend to enter but there is usually extra tickets
We have usually stayed in the same area , the Park hotel is a new location
You can fly into Phily or Baltimore , pittsburg or even smaller airports that are closer
The show starts Thursday & runs until sunday , Thurs - Sat are the best days

Since I fly in from California I'll give you my answers.
1. It is best to rent a car at the airport. There is plenty of parking near the event but get there early on Friday and Saturday for the closer spots. Parking is $10. On Thursday you usually can find free parking.
2. It's $15 a day or you can a 4 day pass for $35. You can get the pass at the gate. Parking is $10
3. I think help stay all over. I stay in Harrisburg and it's about a 30 minute drive.
4. Baltimore. I've tried Washington DC, Philly and Baltimore and BWI is the easiest and usually most economical.
5. If you are going for parts then fly in Wednesday night and go Thursday thru Saturday. If you are going for cars then fly in Thursday night and go Friday and Saturday.
Keep in mind this is at least 10X the biggest Spring Fling you have ever been to if the weather is nice, The weather is the wild card.

I was by the tent several times on Friday and early Saturday and kept missing you and Ashley (I did see Melanie a couple of times though). Dinner on Friday night was the only time I saw you guys. My wife had a work party on saturday night I had to get back for so I hit the road about 10am Saturday after a few more laps of the swaps. I'm also crazy busy at work and wasn't able to come down on Thursday this year so I was pretty rushed. Next year I'll be down Thursday again and hopefully be able to spend more time relaxing....
Anyone getting the itch yet? It's only 356 days, 17 hours and 30 minutes away. :D
I probably shouldn't say this but I found a great spot to park the first year I attended. The first house to the left of the main gate was charging $10 to park. Literally right outside the gate. A lot of other people were paying more and having to walk a long ways to get in.
@nsmall (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/nsmall_145) you owe me a ride in your Cuda. You need to find a way to get it to Pennsylvania. :yes:
:wrenching: I am chomping at the bit.
Thanks everyone. I will be Cudaless Darren, but I'll bring my wife. Anytime you are in CA we will go cruising for sure.
I am very interested in attending. Never been to the east coast. Thanks again.
Oh, I remember reading about a bunch of toll roads. How much should I expect to pay in tolls from Baltimore to Carlisle and back to the airport if I rent a car?
I'm going to try to make Spring Fling again this in 2019 if I can. Maybe the east coast some day but not next year.
I never miss it Sheldon. Did you make 2018's? I hope to meet you in person in 2019.
Nope: I planned on going but couldn't. I'll make it in 19 though.

ZERO - you can from one to the other without taking the toll road
The only reason we missed it this year is we are moving to a new house the July 31st and there is lot`s of junk to move and all the other stuff to do. We definitely plan on going again in 2019, hopefully with the Barracuda if I can get it re-done from the fire in time.
It's looking like 2019 is going to be a great turnout at Carlisle! :banana: :veryexcited: :woohoo:
I've been wanting to get there for years. The 12 hour drive from the northwest suburbs of Chicago and difficulty finding traveling companions for the trek has always kept my plans from happening.
I have a real dilemma, not for 2019, but for 2020. I've vowed to get my T/A out there for the 50th anniversary reunion. I now have less than 2 years to either buy an enclosed trailer and a truck to pull it to transport my car, or get myself into a tax bracket such that I can pay Reliable to get it there and home without breaking the bank! :notsure:
So looks like we have 38 possible members coming! That’s great . . This is gonna be a great show as it always is! :cheers:
Hope everyone brings their ebody!
I'm going for sure! I had a great time this year!
My wife Susan and I are going, Good times and good people!! :grouphug:

OK - if I buy a Toterhome and a two car stacker I could swing buy and pick up your car and you. :driving:
OK - that's the dream / long term moonshot. Not sure if I can make it 2020 but I can try :crazytalk:
My friend Mopar Mitch here on the board who had his T/A rally race car there in 2005 has vowed to be there again in 2020 also, and he lives just a few miles away from me on the other side of town, so we've got 2 cars to go in that toter home if you get it! ;)
We went to Road America yesterday to see the national vintage race, and I was admiring the Excursions many were using to tow their trailers there. I've been threatening to buy a 2WD V10 Excursion to tow my trailer I need to buy, would I be a Mopar traitor if I buy an old Excursion as a budget trailer puller? :dunno:

Those things are massive and the fuel economy is poor. Plus I don't think they hold up very well. Do you have a need for all that room?
There are plenty of 100K mile CTDs out here with zero rust.
CTDs are awesome pull easy with great mileage even if the body is falling apart the drivetrain will be fine
I have a friend who is a long time diesel mechanic and he's strongly advised me to not buy a diesel unless I drive it almost daily (and buy fuel from high volume truck stops).
I'm looking for something reliable under $10Gs to tow, run errands and occasionally pick up large stuff.
The telescoping mirrors on Fords compared to dodges trailer mirrors are a big deal to me due to my driveway situation. And the Mopar automatic transmissions are crap.
I don't know that I'd be happy towing with a 5.7, and a couple people I've talked to over the years when I drive the MCACN shuttle back and forth from the trailer parking yard to the hall talked highly of their V10 Ford pickups for long haul towing their enclosed trailers, that is why I am interested in the V10.
I wish a vintage C body wagon was up to the job, I'd love to show up to Carlisle towing my T/A in a 24' enclosed behind a 69 Monaco wagon but I know that won't fly!

OK I see where you are going. That Excursion might be the way to go then.
There is a 70 Monaco Sedan - loaded but with a frozen BB for sale in Sac right now. Might have to go look at that. :)
My buddy has a V10. Not without it's problems either, one of which is spitting out spark plugs.
Your buddy is way off with the Cummins , Powerjokes are problematic , Cummins are not , I have seen them run 800,000 miles :alan2cents:
So no worries about algae growing in the diesel fuel if the fuel is in the tank for a month and the lift pumps hardly ever go bad and even if they do cost much less than $2500-$3000 to repair? Those are some of the myths my 35+ year head mechanic for a large fleet of trucks keeps feeding me.

I have a 99 CTD QC W2500 Long Bed 6 speed that I ordered in 99. I have 233K miles on it and let it sit for a month at a time.
I buy my diesel at a station that sells a good volume.
Never had a problem with this.
My truck sits too much , so do some of my friends , algae can grow in Diesel , I keep the tank full & change the filters often , never had an issue , I have had 4 Cummins , I had to change the lift pump on one with 350,000 on it
The extra MPG all the time is well worth fixing the occaisional problem like a lift pump
We use Biobor for a long term storage additive. For preventing algae growth for 6 months storage or more, no issues. :alan2cents:
http://www.biobor.com/products/biobor-jf-diesel/
Best truck I ever had. I owned it since new though (10 years) and kept up on the maintenance. That's one problem with buying a used diesel, You don't know if it's maintained properly. A Cummins will pull your house down if it can get traction.
I go every year, only 1 1/2 hr drive for me! :twothumbsup:
Planning on it for sure.
Yep every year I plan too. U can find some good deals on used parts
We bought plane tickets today!!! :banana: :veryexcited: :banana:
absolutely !!!
Wouldn't miss it for the world :ohyeah:
PLEASE! Everyone remember to select E-Bodies.org as your club name when you register for your showfield tickets! I went to the Detroit Autorama this year and saw Ed from the Carlisle show and discussed the group getting a larger tent and I believe that we have a deal for a double sized tent to allow our group more room to socialize! I was told we have 19 members already registered which is great for this time of year! AWESOME!
If you have never been to the show, the tent is our home base and allows you to leave a chair/cooler or anything else you want to leave! There is pretty much always someone at the tent! It will be located close to the same spot we had last year and easy to find with our banners hanging on the side!

Got the 2018 in the show this year and we are under the e-bodies.org club. We are just going to commute to and from the show this year. We are a little over an hour away so we are going to save on the room.
Speaking of saving, you only have a few days to save on registration prices. :takemymoney:
ONLY FIVE WEEKS AWAY :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:
This is always an exciting event for the group! Our annual club meet at the best MOPAR show of the year! If you have never been. this is the show you NEED to go to! The club has a 20 x 40 tent at the show in the e-body area for all to enjoy! Bring your chairs and cooler and leave it under the tent and have a place to relax out of the heat of the day! Plus we will have a club lunch on Saturday and
@ViperMan (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/viperman_88) typically brings a keg of fresh beer for all to enjoy!
Doesn't get any better than good friends, cool cars and fresh beer! :banana: :banana: :banana:

Are you coming in on Thursday or Friday this year?
There is a chance that I am going to make it out there to pick up a cuda in New York. Figured I would make the trip during carlisle so that I could stop by and check out the cars.
Anyone have suggestions on how to make this work? I know the hotels will be filled up so I don't really have a plan.
Seat of my pants type of thing.
Is there parking for my truck with a cuda in tow? How far will I have to go to find a hotel room? Should I make it for more than one day?
I figure the swap meet is on Friday and that appears to be the best day. For parts. Thoughts?

I'm not sure how far you'll have to go to get a hotel at this point but I don't think it will be more then a 1/2 hour or so. I would say the best day for the swaps is Friday for sure.

The Hotel6 I stay in 2 miles from the show always has rooms for "walk-ins" all you have to do is ask.
.......The Hotel6 I stay in 2 miles from the show always has rooms for "walk-ins" all you have to do is ask.......
If you're talking about MOTEL 6 next to the old Hoss.s it's not Motel 6 anymore. It's now American Inn.

Yea, that's what I meant...Thanks for the heads up....I just called and they still have my reservation. :)
Just saw over on Moparts that the Days Inn South in Carlisle has changed ownership and that previous reservations are no longer valid for this location. So if you should have booked a room at this location, you might want to call direct to the location and verify the situation. Would not be a pleasant situation arriving to find out that you do not have a place to stay.
Well I have airline tickets, a rental car and a hotel room.
I'm good to go.
Yes
All booked, Staying at the Scottish Inn in New Comberland, Not far from the show it looks like. Registered under ebodies.org. can't wait first time and happy the Challenger is coming as well.

Nice you can join us for the first time!
The fastest way to the show is, take the Pa. Turnpike heading West for 2 exits. The sign will say Carlisle on it. It's about 20 minutes away. Once you get off, head right on Rt. 11. From there, you just follow the traffic to the show. If you have your Challenger registered for the show, gate 3 is the big entryway. The club tent will not be not more than a few minutes walk from gate 3.
Thanks, that awesome info. So when I enter will they point me in the right direction or will I have a lot number to go to? sorry for the questions.

Will the car be on a trailer? If so, I can't help you there.
If you are driving the car, the E-Body area is straight ahead after entering gate 3. You will see maybe 6 porta potties on the left as you come to a bend in the road. The E-Bodies area is to the right after that bend. You just have to pay attention to what category you have your car registered under. All E-Bodies are within 2 or 3 rows there. I hope this helps.
That great thanks, I paid for trailer parking on site so im thinking ill just unload it and drive in, see you there. :thankyou:
Great thing about Carlisle is there is lots of employees on the grounds to show you where to go, where to park etc...It's the most organized show on the planet. :alan2cents:
well that's good Alan, been to a couple one that were not and I guess with the amount of cars and stuff they would need to be.
Can´t wait to see your awesome Challenger!
Thanks, I cant wait to see everyone else's as well. Cant wait.
I have a newbie question, I registered and im wondering if you get something in the mail or not? Like a tag for the mirror or something so they know you are registered.
Thanks bruce

Hi Bruce . . Yes in the mail will come a window sticker needed to enter the show . . Also a letter that is needed for your goody bag. It comes about 2 weeks before the show . . Hope this helps!
Oh ok Thanks for the info, Hope to see you there.
Anyone DRIVING their Hemi (not trailering) car there? If mine doesn't sell by then I'm packing the tent and dog in to the Hemi and taking the 300 mile trip. I'll leave in the night so I don't have to deal with the heat of the day. Maybe pick up some smokes, probably stop in Savahnas for a yoohoo. P5:P8 I'll be there.
My 2017 Ram has a HEMI, does that count ? :dunno:
I may need to rethink going....

OKAY OKAY OKAY...That is super funny....I just said the EXACT same thing (I mean word for word) to some guy yesterday about the 8 grand tach I have advertised on here....I told him he had to buy it today or I was taking it to Carlisle where I know I would have sold it to member mccannix
Dude came through with the payment, but can't pick it up until I get back next week... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
flying out Thursday AM 8)
Plans are set and I'll be leaving Friday morning :wave:
Always...............Every day.
Saw this on the Mopar Action Magazine Instagram account:
Carlisle forecast and quote of the day
Thursday: 86 degrees with 50% chance of thunderstorms, 100% of not negotiating any prices, "I know what I got, have you seen Mecum?"
Friday: 86 degrees with 10% chance of rain, 90% chance of not negotiating prices, "I'll be here until Saturday afternoon, I'm sure it will sell."
Saturday: 86 degrees with 10% chance of rain, 70% chance of negotiating prices, "Let me know if you change your mind."
Sunday: 86 degrees with 20% chance of rain, 100% chance of negotiating prices, "Make me an offer, I don't want to take this sh#t home."
:iagree: :rofl: :haha: :rofl:
:twothumbsup: :clapping: :haha: :haha: :haha:
That summed it up pretty well . . . :clapping:

Once again I can't make it due to poor planning on my part ... :headbang:
Would have liked to have been going ... :console:
Since I'm not, I could use a favor ... you guys (and gals) who are going to be there, if you see any Hemi E-bodies, take some pics, gather a little info if you can, AND post them up here on EBO!! :cheers:
Thanks in advance!!

Absolutely Mike, hard to believe it's been 3 years!
It's always great to catch up with you all.
Leaving in the morning to take the 8 hour drive by myself . . Good thing I get to trailer the car and sit in the air conditioning . . Packing my sandwiches for the ride so I don't have to stop and get food.
Just want to get there . . :cooldance:
I was planning on going but cant make it this year. I was wondering if they would have a passengerside rear frame rail for a 68 charger and 70-74 cuda rear windshield
All set up and ready to leave early Thursday morning!
:banana:

That's awesome! Your trailer looks a little nicer than mine . . . :bigthumb:
We flew in to DC yesterday and did a bunch of sightseeing. Going to see a little more in the morning before getting on the road and heading to Carlisle mid day. See you guys in less than 24 hours!

I'm here. Nice big tent this year.
Awesome tent! Wish I could be there.
Pretty quiet here....
Yes sir! Along with you, Ian, Brad, Doug, JayBee, Jon, Adam and every other forum member from Ontario, all driving our cars in an e-body parade to Carlisle. I'm not joking guys, this idea was floated last year at Moparfest. Mark your calendar and have your car ready. Maybe Alan will have his own e-body by then and he'll join us. :fingerscrossed:

Looks like I have to unload the Duster and get an e-body!
Only if you want to. I brought my 69 Fastback up a few years ago and was welcomed by everyone with open arms. The Carlisle organizers had heartburn with me paring among my friends and tried to make me move the car. Dave and the others decided that since the tent was large and the spot was reserved and paid for by all of us - we parked my car under that tent for the duration of the event. More than one way to skin a cat. I will forever remember that gracious gesture.......

So, Neil calls me on Friday and says he is in town? Well almost in town .... about 40 minutes away? I was kinda shocked? Expected him to be partaking of all the festivities at Carlisle? Seems his buddy bailed on him last minute. :Thud:
So my buddy Mike needed a hand tuning his old buggy and I said Hey are you in luck I know just the guy for the job, perfect timing!
(pardon the pun)
Life hands you lemons... make lemonade! Or at least have fun helping out a buddy with this old ragged Plymouth. :D Did that and managed to take in a local cruise night too, a 67? hemi Satellite , 69 Roadrunner and a few more Mopars were in attendance, loved the cool old Dodge with the Cummins engine transplant!
Ummm yeah . . The members at Carlisle were like . . Where the #*&)(#( is Chryco? He is suppose to be here! :dunno:
Guess the airlines messed with his schedule . . :rolleyes:

My wife has already volunteered to be the chase vehicle!!! Really she wants the air-conditioning.
