    Anyone else going? I start vacation tomorrow and I'll be up early for the ride to Raceway Park. Thursday I'll be off to Carlisle. Its a 4 hour ride but always well worth the trip. If nothing else but for the junk food. LOL

    Goodluck on finding the Maverick goodies at Englishtown. I usually go in the spring and the fall, but seems like there is an abundance of parts for the bow ties and such and not much on the ford line at least in the used parts catagory. CJ's and some of the other Mustang vendors are always there and have gotten what I needed for my Mustang but not much for my Comet or the Maverick. - Matt

    for Carlisle;
    I drive speed limit, we stop for breakfast and then probable one other pit stop on the way. Then theres the traffic, but always worth it especially if the weather is nice. Ive been going to Carlisle since the early 80's and still enjoy it everytime rain or shine ........

    Carlise is 100 acres of cars for sale and flea market parts for antique and classic cars. You can go to Cars at Carlisle .com to check it out. They also have a PDF down load of the flea market so you can see how big it is. You have to go at leased once and you will be hooked.

    I have frequented Parts Distributors many times. Now it's a heavy equipment supplier. I've been trying to get to Fuddruckers on the pike for a while now, just unsuccessfully to date. The Mav is actually gone now but I have a few other toys 2-66Mustangs coupes, 65 Falcon, and just sold my 68 Cougar) so I'll be down there sometime with one of them hopefully.

    I wasn't impressed with Englishtown either but I've never been dis-satisfied with the All-Ford Nats as Carlise:thumbs2: We'll have to try to get together and maybe caravan to Carlise.
