Cristy Lee, of numerous shows on MotorTrend Network including All Girls Garage, Garage Squad, Barrett-Jackson Auctions and more, will be at the Chrysler Nationals on Friday and Saturday (7/10 & 7/11). Cristy is also a spokesperson for Dodge and has appeared in several commercials including the one with the Hellcat Sleigh and Bill Goldberg.

Cristy was born and raised in Daytona Beach, FL and is a true automotive enthusiast and avid motorcyclist. Her father was a mechanic and shop owner, so she literally grew up around cars and motorcycles. Christy used to help her dad in the garage with his projects and she spent time flipping the pages of his car magazines. After college, she moved to Detroit and one of her first jobs was on the auto show circuit as a Narrator for Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep. Cristy worked her way up through the ranks and today she is a very well-known TV personality in the automotive world.

Dave Rea made his first trip to Carlisle back in 2018 just to see the show as a spectator. Well, this year makes three years in a row for Dave at the Chrysler Nationals! He stepped away from TV to start his own shop, DB Restorations in Cottage Grove, Oregon. Dave has been wrenching on Mopars since he was a kid and he’s been restoring them for over a decade including 5 seasons on a popular Mopar restoration television show on MotorTrend.

Not only does Dave know a thing or two about Mopars, he loves Mopars as much as the rest of us. Trust us when we say that Dave is just a typical Mopar guy who was fortunate enough to land a TV gig and now he has his own shop. But all of that aside, Dave is truly one of us. He loves the cars and the people!

Dave will sign autographs on Saturday in Building R from 11AM until Noon and he will also participate in the Restorers’ Roundtable seminar which will be held at 2:30PM on Saturday at the Stage. You can meet Dave one-on-one in Building R or bring your restoration questions to the Stage for Dave and the other restorers.

The Featured Vehicle Displays are always something special & unique to see at Carlisle Chrysler Nationals and that will be no exception for 2020! Here's a sneak peek at what you can expect to see..

50 Years of the Dodge Challenger
50 Years of the AAR & T/A
50 Years of the Plymouth Duster
50 Years of the Superbird
50 Years of Pro Stock

Butch Leal will be available Friday and Saturday, July 10 & 11, in Building T to meet fans, pose for pictures and talk drag racing, of course! In fact, he’ll be here with his ’75 Duster and the owner of that car is working on a special backdrop for the photos. This will be a truly special photo opportunity that you won’t want to miss. Stay tuned for additional details.

Butch Leal was one of the most versatile drag racers of his time and even to this day. He competed in numerous different classes throughout his illustrious career. In fact, Butch is one of a few racers who won national events in three categories: Pro Stock, Modified and Super Stock. He drove for all of The Big Three, but he spent most of his time, successfully, driving Chrysler products.

Are you a Dodge fan or do you prefer Plymouth? With this die cast offering, you get to choose which side you want to have facing out. Half of the vans will be produced with the Dodge side visible and half with the Plymouth side showing. Let us be perfectly clear, there is only ONE vehicle, but you choose if you want the Dodge or the Plymouth side facing out. Of course, you can always buy one of each.

As you can see from the artist’s rendering, the Dodge side features FC7 Plum Crazy paint, Scat Pack logo and road wheels. The Plymouth side is finished in FJ5 Limelight paint with Rapid Transit logo and Rallye wheels. The roof includes our unique 2020 Carlisle Chrysler Nationals design. The 2020 Chrysler Nationals M2 diecast will feature all new packing in the form of a plastic clamshell and a backer card rather than the box that was used in the past. Inside of the clamshell, the vehicle is still inside of a hard plastic box just like before. 

These 1:64 scale collectibles cost $15 each and are limited to six (6) per person. If you pre-ordered a diecast or would like to purchase a diecast, they will be available in the Carlisle Store in Building T during the event. Diecast will NOT be shipped.

Dusters tend to get overlooked from time to time but we’re going to give them the love that they deserve at the 2020 Chrysler Nationals by celebrating their 50^th anniversary. We’ll be placing a select number of Dusters, both stock and modified, in a special indoor display. We’re looking for everything from factory Slant Six cars to fully modified Dusters with Hemi power.

We want to show the full range of Dusters including packages like the Twister, Feather Duster and more. We also want to see a variety of stock and modified cars as well as Survivors, race cars, Day 2 cars, Barn Finds and Hot Rods. See this unique display come together at Carlisle Chrysler Nationals!

Yes, we have celebrated the AAR & T/A in the past, but this one is going to be huge! This is 50 years of these iconic E-Bodies (and 50 years of the E-Body…and 50 years of the Challenger) and there is only ONE 50^th anniversary so we’re going to do it big. We’ll have an indoor display, outdoor display, tent display, seminars, guests and more. We’re even working on some special surprises, too. 

We want to make this the largest gathering of Mopar’s Trans Am cars EVER but we need your help to do it!

Be a part of the 50th anniversary celebration of the Dodge Challenger by bringing yours to the show. We will feature all years of Challengers from 1970 to 2020 in a special indoor display as well as on the Showfield. Classes will be available for all years and we want to see them all at the show! We want to see all available engine options, body styles and colors.

Most people remember the first time they saw a Superbird. Well, we want to make this the BEST time you saw one! 50 years is a true milestone so we gave the Daytona and 500 their party in 2019 and now it’s time for the ‘Bird to take center stage. Our goal is to display at least one of each color in a special indoor display, all lined up, nice and neat. In addition to that, we want to get as many Superbirds as possible to attend the show as part of the celebration. Either way, if you’re here with your Superbird, you’ll be part of the 50^th anniversary celebration of the Plymouth Superbird.

Top Fuel has always been the “top dog” in NHRA drag racing, but the Super Stock and Pro Stock classes were arguably more appealing because the cars actually began life as factory-built cars. This led to some of the coolest race cars. Pro Stock began in 1970 to be a “step up” from the Super Stock classes and Mopar was not only a player from the beginning, they won the championship the first two years. We’re going to celebrate them with a special indoor display of factory hot rods! This is going to be a truly special display and we’re hoping to have a couple of drivers join us, too.

Join us as we celebrate the 25th anniversary of the economy car twins that captured the hearts of many! What started out as an affordable, fun car quickly drew the interest of enthusiasts with the addition of the Sport Coupe, R/T and ACR versions and eventually the SRT4. It was a pivotal car for Chrysler and we want you to join us as we celebrate 25 (model) years since it was introduced (and 15 years since production ceased).

To make this as big of a gathering as possible, 2GN.org and Neons.org have combined forces for 2020 to become “Neon Enthusiasts.” When you register your Neon for the Showfield, be sure to select “Neon Enthusiasts” as your club. The clubs will share a tent on the Showfield and we’re looking for some special Neons to highlight at the show.

The CSS/HPP Registry is working on an exhibit of 1964-1967 CSS and HPP trucks. Early numbers indicate that we will have around 5 or 6 of these rare trucks in attendance but perhaps as word spreads, we will get a few more. These trucks will be in a special display on the Showfield (exact location TBD) and they are definitely worth checking out! If you have a CSS or an HPP truck, this is the year to bring it! You can register at the link below, but please be sure to add CSS and/or HPP to the model name when you register so we can park you together.

CSS stands for Custom Sport Special which was a $235 trim package. It included bucket seats from a Dart, center console from a Polara, carpeted floor and gas tank (hand-cut and stitched), chrome front bumper and racing stripes. Engine choices consisted of the 225 slant, 318 Poly and 426 Wedge. HPP stands for High Performance Package. This $1200 option included the 365 horsepower 426 Street Wedge and 727 transmission (early Palomino trucks had the 413), power steering, heavy duty instruments with 6,000 RPM Sun tach, dual exhaust and torque rods (above axle traction bars from the Chrysler Imperial). It was possible to have both packages in one truck.

We celebrated 50 years of the Dodge Charger back in 2016 so this display will be a little bit different than the other 50^th anniversary displays this year. Since this is just for one model year, the 1970 Charger Registry is going to celebrate on the Showfield rather than in a building. We’ll provide a larger tent and more space on the field to accommodate this special display.

We’re continuing to work with the 1970 Charger Registry to further develop this activity so please check back for updates or visit www.1970ChargerRegistry.com for more info.

The Chrysler Nationals hosts a nice balance of vehicles of all brands and eras. And even though the Featured Vehicle Displays often focus on certain models due to various anniversaries and celebrations, we still make sure we have room to highlight anything from Ma Mopar. Basically, if it’s welcome on the Showfield, it’s eligible for consideration in the Featured Vehicle Display.

If you have a vehicle that you think should be featured, you are strongly encouraged to submit an application. The process only takes about 5 to 10 minutes but please be sure to have some good photos ready to upload (it’s as easy as attaching them to an email). You are welcome to contact the Event Manager Ed Buczeskie via e-mail if you have any questions.

Oh, and the more unique the vehicle is, the more we might be interested! If you think it’s special and should be highlighted at the show, we want to hear from you. The entire process is easy and can be done totally online at www.CarlisleFeatures.com.

While car show season is up and running at the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds, there are still many local businesses and people who need support.  As a way to give back and offer thanks to a community that has long supported Carlisle Events, we’re hosting donation stations and encouraging you to give at events this year.  Your efforts will support Project SHARE of Pennsylvania and the United Way.  Both local agencies work to serve those in need.  For Project SHARE, it’s their food pantry and for United Way of Carlisle & Cumberland County, it’s helping community-based programs that strengthen the cornerstones for a good quality of life.  This includes education, financial stability, health and basic needs.  In each instance, support is needed. 

Running now through the conclusion of Fall Carlisle (October 5), donation bins will be positioned near the entry gates of the Carlisle PA Fairgrounds during car show event weekends.  Donations suggested include meal-related food items, toiletries and more.  There is also a virtual food drive (details on the Project SHARE web page).  In addition, donations may be monetary in form as well.

Learn more about each organization, how you can donate and more via their respective web pages which are linked below.  You can also view the full press release on this inaugural venture online too.  We thank you in advance for your support.

Mopar enthusiasts are some of the most social in the car hobby. With that fun and social enthusiasm, it should come as no surprise that there are many clubs in attendance at the Chrysler Nationals. In addition to the competition among the cars, there is a battle between clubs to see who has the most cars registered. As a bonus, we offer the use of a 20’ X 20’ tent to those clubs who register 25 vehicles or more. These tents are a great place to take a break and they make a great club headquarters for the weekend. Larger clubs may be eligible for a bigger tent. Contact us for details.

This year we are putting out a special call for 1970 Survivors. Of course, we always welcome all years of Survivor vehicles, but this year we are looking for as many 1970 Mopar Survivors as we can find to display in the Survivor Tent. The criteria remains the same: all vehicles must be at least 85% original in all areas including paint.

As always, Carlisle is proud to be the home of the biggest and best Mopar Survivor display anywhere! Thanks to the efforts of Mel Major, we are able to bring you 40-50 of the best examples of original, untouched and unrestored cars each year. It doesn't matter if you're the original owner; all that matters is that you own an original car. To showcase your survivor, please contact Mel directly at mkmajor@verizon.net for more information.

The goal is to give the Young Guns an area where they can network with their peers and call special attention to their efforts. Classes are open to licensed drivers, age 16-25.

Oasis Application

Carlisle Events promotes multiple events annually and many of them have a footprint to host you and your camper, RV or tent. Rates vary by event, but if you’re a collector car enthusiast and enjoy spending your non-show hours in something other than a hotel, consider camping at Carlisle. You’ll be positioned conveniently close to the excitement of the day. All camping is dry camping – no hook ups. With paid admission campers do have 24 hour access to the bath houses located at the Carlisle Fairgrounds.

Ultimately, prices, availability and amenities vary per show. For the Carlisle Chrysler Nationals, camping is located off-site in the Clay Street parking lot. All on-site options are sold out.  

Camping Information

The best way to find out complete details per show is to call Carlisle Events at 717-243-7855 or email info@carlisleevents.com

The Carlisle PA Fairgrounds is a large footprint that can be a challenge at times, even for the most experienced attendee.  82 acres, 16+ miles of paved roadway, vendors and cars everywhere…it’s easy to understand how you may start wondering to yourself “where did I see that part or car I want to buy?”  “How do I get my purchase from its space to my truck?”  “How am I going to do this?” 

Never fear, because we’ve compiled a helpful list of ways that enhance your on-site experience at Carlisle!  Thanks for joining us and enjoy your time at the show!

1. BRING CASH - The more the better. It’s hard to negotiate a deal without being able to pay.
2. WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES - It’s a lot of walking.
3. SUN BLOCK/DRINK LIQUIDS - You’ll be in the sun all day. It’s important to protect yourself and stay hydrated, especially if your weekend outdoors is your first prolonged exposure to the sun for the year.
4. REMEMBER THE SPACE - Take a picture of the space location or write it down. Every space at Carlisle has a disk to designate the space.  Look down and you’ll see the space marker.  Write down the letter and number.  Don’t try to remember the space or the surrounding area. You’ll spend the rest of the day looking for it.
5. COME EARLY - Rare parts and great deals typically happen for the first person to find them. Set up day(s) and the first day of the event are for the serious shoppers.
6. ACT FAST - If you see a great deal, grab it. If you plan to come back later, it will probably be gone.
7. NEGOTIATE - It’s a flea market so don’t be afraid to make a REASONABLE offer.
8. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED - Chances are good that you will find something you weren’t planning to find, so keep your eyes open.
9. LOOK EVERYWHERE - Even if you are looking for parts for your brand of vehicle, don’t walk past the vendor selling parts for other models or generations just because you assume there’s no way the vendor has what you want.  Give their space a look too.  They might not only have it, it may be cheap since it’s not what they typically sell.
10. USE THE CARLISLE EVENTS APP - Use the FREE Carlisle Events app to easily find your way back to a vendor (if you know the row and space).  You can also use it to check activity schedules, register for other events, connect with fellow enthusiasts via social media, browse a digital copy of the event guide and more.
11. STAY LATE – There are always deals at Carlisle, but sometimes the best ones happen early on day 1 of a show, or late on its final day.Vendors are typically more willing to negotiate when they are packing up – especially large items.
12. BRING A SHOPPING LIST - Our memories aren’t as good as we think. Write it down. You can even make a list on your phone. Take pictures of what you need.
13. BRING A BAG, CART, ETC. - Parts will get heavy so have a way to carry your purchases. Ask the seller if you can leave heavy parts until later.
14. HAVE IT HAULED - Carlisle Events offers FREE* parts hauling. Keep that in mind if you’re looking at an engine, transmission, truck bed, etc.
15. FREE TAXI SERVICE – Need to get from point A to point B but don’t feel like walking it?  Carlisle Events offers a FREE* taxi service.  Dial 717-960-6429 to secure a ride. 
16. ASK! - If someone has parts for a vehicle but not the ones you need, ask if the seller has it. It might still be in his truck or at home. Even if he doesn’t, he might know someone who does.
17. KNOW THE VALUE - Do some homework on the parts you’re looking for so you know if the price is a good deal.
18. AVOID THE CROWDS - When you arrive, go to an out-of-the-way area to start rather than following the herd.
19. WALK IT ALL - Don’t miss any rows. The Carlisle Fairgrounds isn’t a perfect grid so make sure you hit every row and space.
20. ADVERTISE - Wear a hat, shirt or signboard that spotlights what you’re looking for.  It just might create a conversation, especially if what you’re searching for is obscure and/or rare. 

*While parts hauling and taxi service are free, donations are graciously accepted.  Donated money goes directly to the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation. 

 

Enjoy the final moments and aspects of what surely was an amazing event weekend. Gates open at 7AM to start shopping for last minute deals from remaining vendors.
