No we gave that up a few years back - so we changed to buying. With the Vette, this is the first time in a while there is a good likelihood we might find some things to buy.

Cuz it feels like a mini-Carlisle. That's why. :D

IF we were closer it might be fun to take the for sale engine and run stand up there.

Looking forward to Canfield. The Mostmint one says he will be on the fairgrounds around 8am. Not sure I need to be there that early.
JC's is open at 6am, but I'm thinking(Could pickup GMJohn before JC's.) breakfast get together there about 7:30 or 8 am.
Open to suggestions.
I can drive, bringing the wagon and a newspaper bag.

We could ride 3 up if "Smoke wants to ride with us, leave your rig at my place,

There's a McDonald's in Mantua that would work for breakfast too... My place
is on the way-ish for people coming from the north. There's plenty of parking
here too. I'll be whereever when we need to be there.

I'm all for meeting up at McDonalds in Mantua and getting some breakfast. But I will drive myself to The Meat. Rumor has it there might be a "run the course backwards" day (or just a session) at Nelson Ledges which I'm interested in checking out on my way home.

Hoping for a change in the weather at least a little.

As of right now, GMJohn and I will be at the Mantua McD's at 8:00am.

A little breakfast and onto the meet.

Attending the Canfield meet was great fun, not Carlisle but still a good time.
I did buy a 19.2 volt Craftsman portable Vacuum for $5 and it works.
GMJohn found an antique fan, 'Smoke found tool bargains, Mostmint an engine stand
and a person to be named later purchased some "Hello Kitty" pink floor mats for "Carol".
(All granddaughters are special fun.)

The pictured 6 cylinder was running all day, quite a trick,
it was running when we got there and when we left.
