Saabs & Carlisle

Postby DeLorean » Sun May 20, 2012 9:24 pm

I saw a lot of neat cars there, and there were a lot of great stories. This years 99 count was the most I had ever seen at Carlisle. at one point on Saturday, I counted 12 there.




Through there were some clear exceptions (Luke & swedesport) but I didn't see a lot of the saab rally regulars. This event seems to be a really positive thing for a lot of classics, as for many of them, it's the furthest they will be driven all year... Anticipating the trip to Carlisle seems to drastically improve the condition of many of the cars that show up there.

Yep, even tho I knew I couldn't make it I vacuumed my wagon out.

And the anticipation of Iowa is what is making me want to get the SPG sorted out.

I have seen some pics on FB, but am waiting for all of them to get posted on the forums. So upset I couldn't make it, but at least I was working, not sitting in the office with my thumb up my butt.

And it's generally more fun than SOC although I think this year's one in Iowa may be an exception to that.
