<div>For me, it was the camaraderie and friendship more than the event itself. A meeting of friends and acquaintances, (usually in the rain & mud). Searching for parts in the early days and trying to get rid of parts in more recent years ;) Lunch with friends and dinner at the "Steak Place". </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Frank bringing home cars that he didn't know exactly how he had acquired, and didn't have a trailer for ;) I was usually the closest so a quick trip home to get the trailer and then to Tom's River with his latest acquisition. He did that a few years in a row. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>He called it PennsylRAINia because every time he came here it rained, even for some of the rallies we staged.</div>

<div>I'll miss Carlisle Import, but I miss the "Spridget crew" more. </div>

<div dir="ltr">I wish I could be there. I was a five yearly event for me. I remember see the small race-type alternator on Frank's green Bugeye in 98 and thinking I've got to get something like that. Nothing like that was available until I helped Cambridge Motorsport develop one (moveable backing plate and several test fits on my car to then get a productionised one made. Then there was the year Alan found me a 1275 Spridget flywheel in a bin - it came back to the UK with me and I'm not sure where it is now. From the same bin came a cast iron thermostat housing - not sure why anyone that doesn't have the air pump still uses the iron housing - it went on to fame but not fortune being featured in at least 2 editions of a certain Spridget book.

<div>I decided to sell the car a year after installing the radiator and listed it on Craigslist. I guy from St. Louis, MO flew up here, counted out a pile of hundred dollar bills, and drove the car home - in January! Last I heard the radiator was still working perfectly. :-)<br>

Fit perfectly and worked properly. The only thing I didn't like was that the fasteners were metric (ewww). <br>
<br>
All fans work better as pullers.<br>

<div>Ahhh fond memories .</div>
<div>The Philly MG club swap meet, import Carlisle & sprite spree AND the Infamous LBC rallys.</div>
<div>( and a minister for a navigator......)</div>
<div>And the early years of OSHIT. hey! I have the tattoo to prove it! Right Larry..."OUCH"....every time you walked by.</div>
<div>Racing Frank to the Lancaster healey meet....we had to be the 2 loudest LBC'S showing up. Daniel bringing big rear spridget brakes to America as carry on luggage....</div>
<div>IT WAS ONE HELL OF A GOOD TIME!</div>
<div>And a very prominent part OF All it was Frank.</div>
<div>* dam it actually brings a year to my eyes*</div>
<div>And who could forget "zap screws and liquid nails".</div>
<div>Carlisle was a yearly pilgrimage to get Frank wet. Muddy shoes, meets under the bleachers and more!</div>
<div>Funny how it seems like an eternity ago...</div>
<div>Yes Carlisle has changed over and over. But! The memories. The people who are no longer with us. They may be gone, but at least at my garage, they are not forgotten.</div>
<div>Chuck</div>
<div>See you at Carlisle....what ever the weather provides.</div>
<div>Probably not going to rain....just to spite Frank.</div>
<div>😊</div>
