Default What I got

I got new stainless steel brake lines and hoses from Lonestar Caliper. A factory service manual, the same color coded wiring diagram as 71redskin (except mine's for a '73), the 66-82 Corvette shop manual, some special coatings from Eastwood and a bunch of free catalogs.

Also met Gary Ramadei (gtr1999) and talked to a guy from Virginia about his '73. Had a great time!

I bought some extra parts for the cars as spares, original correct '71 LS6 carburetor, a pair of beautiful '71 rocker panel moldings, a NOS TI amplifier kit, an original NOS license plate frame GM for the employees at the Tonawanda engine plant facility, some other misc pieces. Absolutely had a terrific time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My big buy was a '74 L-82 4 speed car and some new Al Knoch leather seat covers for it. That will be the last big Carlisle buy like that for a long time!

I was hoping to find a nice used chambered exhaust system for my '96 LT4, but no luck.

Disneyland has nothing on Corvettes at Carlisle weekend as the happiest place on earth!
