I was going to start a thread about something somewhat specific I'm looking for at the car corral.

1. 78-81 restomod with a C4 LT1 or LT4 or LS out of a C5.

2. 78-81 with mild mods and fuel injection kit.

3. 82 crossfire modified to 300hp.

Will they be there? What should I expect to pay for a really nice driver?

I spent much of today, going through the shop and loading my trailer with parts for Carlisle. I expect to be there Wednesday afternoon, to get set up. Spaces J 144-147, stop by and say hello!

I see you're in Boiling Springs. I hope the Boiling Springs Tavern is one of the places you recommend for "food".

There's about a dozen of us that will be there for dinner Wednesday night. We're a group of 4 or 5 different Corvette vendors, that get together there every year on Wednesday. It's sort of a Carlisle tradition, that we've been enjoying for years.

I can't help you much on the Wilwoods. I know Muskegon Brakes carries them, but I don't know what they get for them, or if they'll be bringing any to Carlisle.

I will be there early Saturday, do my usual walk around all the used parts and see what I can pick up. After that I will check out all the cars. My wife has no interest, neither do any of my kids, so it will be actually more enjoyable with no complaining around me.
