Truck Carlisle is (obviously) just about all trucks
General Carlisle is EVERYTHING, Model As, MGs, any car you can think of with some truck stuff mixed in. LOTS of stuff to wade through. If you only have 1 day, go to the Truck Nationals. I think they've changed this year's to August. Saturday's usually the best day. Good Luck!

I agree trucks and parts truck nationals. If you need a car or any kind of part spring or fall carlisle. http://www.carsatcarlisle.com
edit They moved the truck nationals when they stopped having the Ricer/Import show. They caused so many problems the town gave the people running the show at carsatcarlisle the ultimatum. Now the Import/Rice show is in Harrisburg Farm show complex in the summer sometime.

All Truck Nationals is a great show to find parts for your truck, as GM72K10 says there are so many other kinds of vehicle parts at the spring and fall show. However, if you need engine and drive train parts, the best selection for those is at the spring and fall show.

I spent the day there today, Boy all I can say is the economy must be picking up as there were a lot of sold signs on cars and trucks. I'll bet there were over 20 67-72 trucks and most of them had sold on them. prices were about $13500-22500. This was mostly cars but some trucks. If you want truck parts Truck nationals is the one to go to. That show will have alot of our vendors there, Last year truck nationals was mostly a GM show very few fords and dodges.
