Corvettes at Carlisle - The Pictures!


Recommended Posts

Well, at least the family friendly ones! :D

 

Here's the Junkman's story as I experienced my second Corvettes at Carlisle.

 

Well what can I say, it was Carlisle so you know it was a good time! I was actually under the weather this year but by the end of the event, my juices had started flowing again. I left Louisville in a small plane looking somewhat beat up.

See, don't I look sick? :help:

 

 

When I arrived in Carlisle, I was given the keys to a very nice set of wheels. As you can see, these type of keys can perk a guy up! A very nice ride indeed!

I got to see my main man for Corvette knowledge again! For those who don't know, this is Paul Koerner (C4C5Specialist), a World Class Certified GM Technician who was flown in by Mid America to do some seminars on the C5 and C6. If you ever get a chance to hear this man speak, DO IT. He is the E.F. Hutton of Corvette knowledge.

Pulling the trigger on the flash test, unplugging folks from the Matrix!

Smokin' Vettes had a unusual looking ride in their tent. Definitely drew in the attention!

Things were constantly hoping at the Adam's booth. People were constantly in line buying something.

Anyone looking for a fixer-upper? A little detail spray and you're ready for a Saturday night cruise! At least at that asking price, the **** thing should run, eh? :willy:

The Adam's Customer Appreciation Party was fun as usual! Plenty of food, drinks and laughs.

This here is my bud "Kool-Aid"! He got his name from an accident he had where he ran through a garage door. As he stood there with debris all over him, someone said that he looked like the Kool-Aid pitcher as he crashed through. Needless to say, the name stuck! :lolsmack:

I tried to belly up to a conversation between Big Steve (Krazytrain) and Kool-Aid but they put the squeeze on me!

More photos to come!

 

This puppy was nice!

Meanwhile back at the tent, someone brought in a nice C5 with a nasty key job:

So out came the sandpaper and I went for broke.

And now for the final results. Notice that all of the other swirls and scratches are gone too!

Smokin Vettes had a very nice C6 at their tent. Got a lot of looks too.

This company was selling some slick hoods. They need to work on their swirl marks though! :help:

Some local crooks from Digital Corvettes showed up! :lolsmack:

Another sweet C2!

The owner and owner of one of our favorite eating spots, the Boiling Springs Tavern.

Now that you see the owner, you'll understand why our jaws dropped to the floor when he showed us the booming system he had in the car and also the switches! That's right, this car had air bags for lowering and raising the car! :willy:

 

When talking about a car like this, you can pack the kitchen sink when going on vacation. You can even take along your favorite "Junk in da' Trunk!" :lol:

Here's a good gauge that you can use to see how under the weather I was. Look at the size of my steak. I could only manage to eat half of it!

Although my appetite for food was beat down, I still had my eyes on the ladies...

Well, that's all I can post here. You'll have to attend the event to see what else you missed out on! :D

Got my Fun Field Pass ordered and my hotel reserved! Gonna be another good show for sure.

 

 

 

 

This is my buddy John's Vette selling the hoods. He's the guy in the red shirt on the left. He wasn't even supposed to be at Carlisle, but the owner called him two days before and said he was without a car. So John graciously offered up his time and car for the show. Never had a chance to do much more than a bit of detail spray to it to take off the bugs. You should have offered up your services AJ. John is a Meg's and TW user. :willy:

Is it possible to be cool as a banana? :glasses:

 

Yep, when it's peanut butter-jelly time! :lolsmack:
