If think if you can only come on Sunday and have more than a 3 hour drive to get to Carlisle, you should consider postponing until you can spend Friday and/or Saturday here.

You have to decide if you want original or not. Since the price of the reproductions are what they are you may as well buy the real thing.

I have a few small odds and ends for sale. Anyone with a vendor spot that I can leave parts with to sell cheap and keep a % of proceeds?

I left the Beach at 5 am and got here at 11:30. It was a great ride up. I have Already met up with Dennis, Tom, Don and Paul. Top down for the whole trip and the heater was going this morning. Ready for a beer.

That is that NEW CAMO Corvette put out by Realtree Camo. Good for a duck or goose or deer blind for hunting out of.

This was basically the first thing I saw early this morning.

I just about dropped my Dunkin Donuts.

The guy who used to make the best repops doesn't do it anymore. They are asking $800-$900 for reproductions now. I saw two wheels here today. Both were said to be originals. Both asking $1200. Both were repops. So know what you are buying. You can buy a good original for close to that money.

Talk to the Vetteheads guys in G108 - G115. I'm sure something can be worked out.

Tell the Pedro said to be nice and help you out.

We pretend to sell stuff, and occasionally actually do sell something, but it is really just an excuse to get together and party.
