Corvettes at Carlisle Shopping List 2019
 

Carburetor Information Posted Now To Assist Carb Seekers

I will be parking my truck and trailer just South of the Carlisle Fire and Rescue Services (Fire Station) located at 177 Carlisle Springs Road. It located just outside of Gate 1 to the Carlisle Fairgrounds where the Corvettes at Carlisle Show is being held. I enter and exit through Gate 1 for the show. If you Google Map that address you will see the location. My reserved parking is just South of the station. I will have my Green Silverado 2500HD truck and my small beat up 8' enclosed trailer at the show this year so you can look for that truck/trailer combo. The guys parking folks in this area know me after several years of parking here, they can help point out my truck if you need assistance finding me.

I will be heading to Corvettes at Carlisle again this year with a small but important shopping list of items I will be needing. For this, my third year, I am willing and able to look for items that you might be looking for and I wanted to get this posted up in time for you to contact me with your needs. Corvettes at Carlisle is August 22-25 this year with the 22nd (Thursday) being setup and first items getting snatched up; Friday always a good shopping day; Saturday finding some items at a bargain; and Sunday most folks have either gone home or heading out early in the morning. So I will attend Thursday and Friday this year and see what I can find for me, and for you.

Here is how I have done it in the past and it has worked well so please lets try to do this again this year.

You contact me by PM or by e-mail (AllVettes4Me@gmail.com) and tell me what it is you are trying to find.
You give me as much detail as you can to assist me in locating the correct item for you.
You give me your phone number number so I can call you or text you pictures of what I have located.
I will text you the price and pictures of what I locate.
You determine if you want the item or items or not and confirm that to me.
I buy the item for you and bring it home to my house to pack and ship to you.
You pay only the price of the part purchased (which you agreed to do before I buy it) and actual shipping costs to get the item to you.
There are no fees, no added costs, no surprises, no promises I can find what you need but I sure will try.
If an item is large-large; or expensive-expensive; I can put you in contact with the seller directly and you can negotiate or purchase directly with them.
My goal here is to help you find the missing items you need.
I enjoy the hunt, and giving the help, to my fellow Corvette enthusiasts.
I have had some successes, and some disappointments, doing this in the past but as long as I can walk and search I will.
Please let me know if you have something I can seek out for you.
Better still, if you are coming to Carlisle this year let me know and we can split the task of searching and maybe I can help you locate your item or items.
Simple as that. If I can help you let me know.
Best regards,
David Howard

Thanks, David. Your offer to look for parts is incredibly generous. I'll send you an email per your instructions.

Now this gentleman makes me proud to be a Corvette owner. Folks like him are what make this a "community".

Thank you David!

I have a spare bracket and nut for a 72 LT-1. LMK.

I sent a note to brit vet telling him that you may have what he needs and he could contact you directly. You would be helping him out a bunch. Thank you for reaching out to me on this, hope it works out for you both.
Best regards,
David

My need for a 'bullet' for the luggage rack has been resolved by Mooser, but I have discovered one other single item need. The lower washer nozzle for the right headlights.

Very kind offer, David, thank you! Ed

If you see any 70-72 rear clips, which are not all rusted out. Take a picture and shot me a phone number.

Well not exactly sure you caught my offer above but if you want me to take pictures and send you a phone number then you will get that after the show it over and I can get home and post them here.
Will do that if you want, just let me know.
Coupe or convertible?

Great offer David, will check to see if I need something and follow your instructions. Really miss going to that show, just a little to far for me right now! Enjoy.......................

I printed this page and got your contact data from your PM and wrote that on this page so you are "On the List" or "On the Stack" of papers going with me to Carlisle.
Will let you know if I find it.

Roger,
If you need something for me to search for you please say something. I don't need a huge excuse to drive down to Florida in Early February as I am looking into the Daytona 500 speed week activities again this year.
If you can wait a little bit I might just be tempted to bring my truck and trailer down with me, know what I am saying!!!
February in Daytona and surrounding area, doesn't get better than that folks.
Best regards,
David

I have updated my list above to remove my jack and add items that have been requested. If you are not listed there then I may not have enough information from you yet to put you on "The List".
Contact me if you have any questions.
Thank you.

Sounds good David, might have an idea if that 69 frame doesn't sell and you with your trailer. Hmm! Yes , Florida then is like spring when you actually don't have the humidity lurking.

I could be coaxed South in February, you bet. I have your trailing arm item on my list now for Carlisle and will let you know how I make out. Until then keep up the great work Roger.
Best regards,
David

List updated today. Some of you have found what you were seeking and I have taken those items off the list. Congratulations to those that have been successful thus far.
Carlisle fist visit is Thursday, August 22nd; three weeks from tomorrow. I will keep the offer open until the 21st, three weeks from today so you still have time.
Thank you and best regards,
David

I received my idle solenoid bracket & nut from Doc Rebuild yesterday but thanks for the offer to look for them David :thumbs:
