We're headed to Carlisle, Pennsylvania, for the Carlisle Import and Kit Nationals next weekend. We'll have a tent set up on Friday-Saturday. Coming to Carlisle? Keep an eye out for us and come say hi.

sorry I'm going to miss you, since I am so close. Would love to visit again from the Orange Blossom Tour. But Penny and I just signed up for the SmokyMountainTour. See you then if not sooner. Tell all your great staff I said hello.
What's the story on the Jag on the trailer. My son-in-law would love to have one and we can restore it. Dave.
I think I will be there!!!
Junkyard_Dog and I will be there Friday-Sunday in the Saab section. Keep an eye out for a red '85 900S sedan. Maybe I'll throw a GRM sticker on it. This will be its maiden voyage after being off the road for 17 years. What better break-in, right?
Still pushing for you to talk Margie into coming.
I'll be there with my Saab as well. The '04 93 convertible, which should be one of many actually.
I'll probably be making the long trek out there on Saturday (I live in Carlisle, like 15 min from the fairgrounds 
) If you spot a tall, gangly young guy, likely in a GRM t shirt, say hi because it's probably me.
Also, if anyone is looking for suggestions on local eateries or fun drives let me know and I'll hook you up with the insider info.
My son and I are going. We'll try to look you up!
I've never been to this one. What are the chances of finding a vintage race car to buy?
If it wasn't my regions opening weekend, I'd be there. I'm sure my mk1 VW and 80s Audi friends will be going. They always make the trip for Mk 1 madness and the import show.

If you're not picky, pretty good.
But if it's got to be a "this", and it's got to be in great running shape, and it's got to be cheap, then your chances are less good.
You know, there's a decent chance that I'll be able to make the drive up. Not sure how much walking around the show that I'll be able to manage and I definitely won't be autocrossing as I have in years past.
If any of you fellow forum-goers do make it, shoot me a PM. I'll have beer/bourbon/camaraderie for my GRM brethren.
Are you guys going to Ford Carlisle?

Bah! Bring the Spitfire!
I'll be there with the NASS group as usual with Winnie the Poo (the brown '79 Spitfire I bought from fujioko a couple of years ago).
Although I will browse the Saab area drooling over old 95's.
Oh goody, rain! Cold rain.
This is so not looking good for Saturday.

In reply to foxtrapper:
I'm hoping it's too soon for accurate weather forecasts
Instead of driving the 45 minutes to Carlisle I'll drive the 13 hours in the fall to see you guys in Gainesville.

Well... wouldn't be the first time. On the plus side, I haven't had time to remove the hard top off the Spitfire.
Every year, there are complaints about the swap meet. This year was great for me. I've bought parts for all four of my collector/project cars. I just picked up some Volvo 1800 sheet metal (front nose clip) I've been wanting for years.
I'm not making the trip up, it's a bit soggy for me today.
Ed, will you guys be there tomorrow, Sunday the 22nd?

The GRM crew was packing up yesterday afternoon, so don't think so.
