Carlisle All - GM Nationals

Carlisle All - GM Nationals is on Facebook. I think updates from our group would help show grow and help car collector hobby as whole. For me, some of our members here make this a show worth attending.

I went to the GM Carlisle once and it was dominated by Camaro's about 60% and the rest was 40% for other GM makes.
This was in the car show,cars for sale and swap meet.Don't get me wrong i really like Camaro's but i wont go again as the variety was not strong enough for me in all models of GM.

Every year, the swap meet area gets smaller and smaller.

Since you have a link to your ebay auctions under your posts, that might be a clue as to why they're all getting smaller.....

In 2009 The SuperCar Workshop and all their friends, customers put together that Bldg display to recreate a 69' Chev dealer showroom. This was a display 2nd to none.

G.M. Carlisle certainly has some negative issues, and not does not have wide spread support past the American Camatro Assoc "Camaros at Carlisle" (show within a show)

Still overall its a great show with plenty to see....

Will the SuperCar Showroom be back this year?

That in itself is worth the trip !

Verne,
Even though I list on ebay weekly, that doesn't stop me from selling at the GM Nationals every single year since the inaugural year. I guess I should have been more thorough with my post. Compared to the All Ford and All Mopar Nationals, GM has the smallest swap area and Carlisle Productions has been condensing the swap area ever since the first year of the show. I don't understand why the GM show isn't anywhere near as popular as the Ford or Chrysler show.

You are right about that Matt. Maybe because the GM guys have been doing this longer or there are many more shows for the GM stuff or all the GM stuff has been exhausted or most of the GM cars are done or.........

but you are right. It is less and less every year. Verne and Ronnie Evans always have good Day-2 stuff or some real vintage 409 parts and so forth.
