Carlisle 2023

[JJ300]

That is always on my calendar, seems as though work gets in the way, but hopefully next year!

Finally catching up. Got home on Monday night after spending a day in DC following Carlisle.
It was finally great to see this event in person after all these years of living vicariously, and even better to meet and get to know some of the members from the eastern states and provinces. It was also great to catch up with the crew from the midwest again. And, good catching up with @MrMoparCHP 3000 miles outside of our local territory. I had a great time!

Here's some of my pics.

Edit: Malaise Era vehicles I posted over on the malaise thread: The crappy years? There were some cool Mopar cars from 1975-1991 (pre-viper), so list 'em!

And some engine bay shots.... Lots of eye candy here.

Some shots from my short time in DC. I hadn't been there since about 1990.....

I came across all this yellow paint on the street in front of Lafayette Square....then looked up at the sign.

The 'Nam Memorial, WWII Memorial, and Lincoln Memorial all had a "heavy" feeling. It was very moving just being there.

My airline carry-on compatible 'loot' from the swap meet....

The last night, dinner at the Tombs in Georgetown....

Nice to meet you. I am glad you enjoyed the show.
It was interesting to hear your perspective and Alan's. Two almost opposite views.

Nice meeting you as well, Dave (and Diane too). 'Til next year!

Good to see PM27L0D270593 out and about. If memory serves, @1970FuryS27 owns the car (@70 Sport Suburban can confirm that my information is still correct).

I guess you could say that... although I'll have to strategize if I'll have enough in me to spread the love in 2024 between Back to the '50s in St. Paul, Tim's C-body show in IL, and Carlisle.

Add Moparfest in there. There are cars in Canada that takes things to a different level.

Correct he still owns it.

Agree, it was great to finally meet @73Coupe and @MrMoparCHP! Also had some great conversations with @cuda hunter and @70 Sport Suburban along with so many others. And got to meet Miss Hurst herself Linda Vaughn. Sure wish I had a Hurst Bike to put in my trunk, something that @Trace 300 Hurst doesn’t have.

The best Carlisle ever for me.
