Show? Figure I'll go since I'm not likely to get to the A-H Conclave, and this may be it for getting to anything beyond strictly local shows this year. The BE is looking good and running strong, so why not? Besides, it's a nice drive on mostly two-lane roads between my home in College Park MD and Carlisle, last year did the 125 miles on just about three gallons. This year the gas will cost less -

If it's anything like the antique car show and swap meet, it would last several days. But I don't think it's that big. They should have a lot of stuff for sale, and with prices going down, maybe there are some bargains.

I will be going, just hope the car is back on the road. Its a 40 minute drive for me, so if anybody needs anything or a place to stay, let me know.
I had planned on going last year, but the weather was miserable.
Looking forward to taking a day of work, relaxing and seeing what others are selling.

You can see it in one afternoon, there's a separate area for vendors, last year Winner's Circle was there (good thing for me too, since my starter crapped out and they had another modern-type for only about $70 more than I paid on ebay) along with a bunch of people vending all manner of LBC parts, some new, some old, some clean, some rusty. A friend of mine came down from MI and paid for his trip by selling a 3.9 rear and a Datsun 5-speed. We had a lot of Sprites since it was of course Sprite 50, but I should expect a lot of British cars this year as well. You can register for the show field (judged or non-judged) on the Carlisle web site (google Carlisle import kit) for $20. I think I'll stay at the same place which was Sprite 50 HQ last year. Gary: don't know exactly when I'll be going, either Thursday afternoon or Friday morning, I took MD 32 to MD 97 to PA 94 last year, two lane for the most part and a nice drive. I might bring along a few items to peddle myself, although I believe they frown on selling from the show field (I'd have a discreet little sign). Carlisle seems to be a town of truck stops and motels, so there's not much there there.
