Linda,

Based on what I saw, this year, I’m pretty sure there will be an Import Carlisle next year.

List,

I sure miss those days and those guys even more, and sorry I missed Carlisle this year, so no more Imports at Carlisle? Carlisle is not the same without Frank and his Speedwell Spridget and Biff and his oldest Spridget there but we must continue doing what we love and of course paying it forward. Putting Carlisle on my calendar for 2020 and hopefully hosting an OSHIT day this summer : ) My little pink Spridget is running great rust and all.....er pardon me "patina" and all, and I love her that way as I never have to feel badly for additional scratches. 

Safety Fast,

Linda

Setting up a booth and then the hourly walk arounds partly to socialize,
partly to covertly rummage for more parts. Anticipating the weather wildcard.
Then gathering for lunch at the food concession area. Later to settle on a dinner place and enjoy staging our cars outside and answering curious onlookers questions.
Frank, Biff, Kevin, Chuck, Rick, Franky, Rob, Linda and several others I have
Probably forgot about. But all of us made it a great yearly event.
My last few trips saw less and less vendors, fewer hobbyists, and a constant
struggle to maintain our own Import Show identity.
The 7% sales tax slapped on didn't help either
I read Bud's post and can relate completely.
Just wanted to add my .02 worth about this coming weekend in Pennsylvania.
