This was the scene Monday June 16th at Carlisle prepping for Solid Lifter Showroom 6. As any veterans of the show can see, there has been plenty of outside parking spaces made available to us this year. The row of blue striped tents will be removed to grant easy access to the entry ramp into the building. Trailer parking will be much the same, but additional parking will be available to us inside the grounds for the expected overflow. The trailer unload procedure may be changed slightly from past years because of the tents, but it looks to be something that will not be to difficult. Please be patient with move in this year.
This year, the front showroom will be filled to capacity with the new for 1969 427 hi-performance models including the 435 Corvette, the factory 427 Chevelles and Camaros along with the fresh and exciting offerings form Dick Harrell and Don Yenko. Rounding out this years showroom are the L/78 Novas, Camaros and Chevelles some with the L/89 option and JL/8. Lets not forget the 302 Z/28's either. As always, expect a few surprises, and with the added tents outside more cars and owners than ever can participate.
Author Phil Borris will be on hand with his excellent book "Echoes of Norwood" and he will be unveiling a newly found Norwood artifact that has not been seen in decades Saturday at @ 1:00PM.
