I'll be there as planned, but I just changed my Gate N Go registration from 1968 Road Runner to 2016 Challenger SXT a.k.a. "Base Camp". I'll leave Christine Sixteen parked over with all the other new BS.

Have you received confirmation that you have been accepted yet? As of today, I haven't.

Always wanted to go but thats quite a ways from Commiefornia. Kinda curious how it will be this year, I was trying to order some misc parts from Jamie at Mega parts and he didn't have what I wanted but here is what he said about Carlisle,
"It is insane. 2019 someone could order 100 parts and I would maybe have 4 or 5 out of stock. Today someone orders 10 parts I am out of 4 or 5. It is getting a little better, but window sweepers and wiring harnesses are tough to get. We already canceled going to Carlisle in that was mostly due to the backorders. The couple grand extra in expenses sealed the fate of the show as we cannot get so many good selling items we just couldn’t justify attending. I don’t see things getting better anytime soon."
Wonder how many other vendors feel the same, I know like many of you I have been playing heck getting parts. Waited 8 months for door panels and finding a front bumper is tough right now and even getting mine re-chromed is a no go since the local chrome shops are so jammed up they aren't taking new orders. After banging around on the web for 2 days I did find seat covers but they wanted my right arm and firstborn for them.

I personally don’t go to Carlisle to see what the repro vendors have to sell.
@BrianS thanks for the info, that makes it clearer.

No not yet, hell we ain't even got our regular showfield registration yet. The last Mel and I sent messages back and forth to each other was in April. He told me once in an email that there will be a confirming letter before the show for getting in and passes and stuff, BUT he didn't say when it would be sent out. I would assume in a couple weeks from now.

I talked with Mel last week via email and he verbally told me that I'm in. He said that confirmations would be going out in about a week, so hopefully, that'll be any day now.
Looks like it will be a Great turnout, with a lot of New Attendees ! My plan to have my '63 there, will not happen this year, as it will not be completed in time for the show. Looks like the Ram again for showfield access...
Spectator only again this year. Next year my car will be ready so it will be my first time bringing a car to the event.
I will be there from Wednesday morning through Sunday morning... Spots
H 107 - H 108 , right next to the bathrooms / shower house , right down 4 rows from the center of the food court.... where I have been for the last 29 of the 32 years of the show.....
I have BRAKES, Brake Drums & Rotors, Front End, Motor and Transmission Mounts, Fuel Pumps, Water Pumps, Ignition & Electrical, BEIGE / TAN Distributor Caps, some Original Date Coded !!! MOPAR Parts, and a whoooooooole lot more !!!
Definitely worth your while to swing by, check it out, and grab what you want or need, save $ $ on the shipping, naturally, and simply grab my literature if you need nothing at all... You are still a winner !!!
Yours, Craig.....
