Do you actually intend on having parts and supplies for C4's? You're advertising your business in the C4 forum. You need to actually have parts and supplies to fit C4's for us to be interested. It's been a huge waste of time for me and others here driving all the way to Carlisle only to find most vendors don't have much for C4's, or nothing at all. What will you have on hand for C4's?

Been going to spring and fall for last 20+ years, since my son was 3 and I was tugging him along in his wagon......few more years and he will have to tug me around in a wagon
For me it's more about spending the day with my son than finding that one part I'm looking for.
Based on their website, I doubt they will have the couple things I am looking for but I will certainly stop buy and look.
Going anywhere and spending time with your son is something special. Great bonding time for sure. But my comment was directed at the vendors who advertise their business as having supplies/parts on hand for our C4's and yet when you get there, parts are VERY minimal. It happens alot at Carlisle. There are lots of C4's still out there. I would like to see more things for sale pertaining to C4's. So far, it hasn't happened.

I agree, it does seem to happen a lot at Carlisle. Year after year, the same vendors bringing the same stuff. I look at some of the vendors up on the hill and have to wonder if they come close to covering their costs for the weekend.
It is also noticeable at the Corvette show. Lots of vendors but not a lot of C4 stuff.
In fairness to the vendors that sell parts for multiple generations, it is probably pretty challenging to determine what to load in the trailer.

I'm sure it is hard. But for years now many C4 owners have been asking my same question. Where are all the C4 parts? Many vendors answers are always that they don't sell much for C4's. Is it because there is a lack of C4 owners there, or is it because they don't have much? My guess is they don't have much. Our C4's are getting older now. Just the time when we need things. If the vendors won't carry these parts, we are stuck trying to get them used or wasting lots of time on the internet.
