Title: 2007 All Ford show at Carlisle
Post by: 77turbopinto on December 16, 2006, 07:58:20 AM
I did not see a thread on this.

Connie and I are planning to go, but wanted to know who else would/might be going.

We know it won't be a "FordPinto" event, but we hope to see a bunch there.

If there is enough intrest, we are thinking about getting a 'tent' if it is not too late.

Bill

UPDATE:      UPDATE:        UPDATE:        UPDATE:       UPDATE:     UPDATE:  
     

PLEASE support this site and the club (PCCA); when you register, please make sure you state you are with “PCCA”.

As of this update (15 Mar 07), there are 11 Pintos pre-registered, but only 4 that are documented PCCA members.

If you forgot to mention that you are a “PCCA” member when you registered, you CAN update your registration to add “PCCA”, and PCCA will get "credit" for the registration. If you are not sure, please contact Carlisle. This will not cost you anything, but it helps the club. If we have 25 pre-registered members BEFORE May 4th, we get the $150. tent for free. Please do your part.

BTW: No need to have your Pinto "finished" or even "started". Just put a sign on it that states what your plans are for it, and what you have done so far. HEY, you have to get there somehow, right? Why not enter it, get into the show for 3 days, not have to pay extra for parking, and you won't have to walk 5 miles to get back to your car with all the parts you buy at the swap meet.

Also, please post in this thread if you plan to go, and when you register.

Hey Bill,
 I thought the group decided that we were going to have 3 regional Pinto sponsered meets on the odd years and a National event on the even years???

Post by: 77turbopinto on December 16, 2006, 12:42:19 PM
I thought that too, but I am just thinking about the Carlisle event itself; If others were planning to go. Last year we had a good showing, but I am sure some or most of that was due to 'our' event. If we can get a similar amount of Pintos, and maybe a few new people from intrest we generated last year, we could all split the cost of a tent.

Connie and I can/will "chair" the event if there is an intrest from the club (again, if we are not too late to do it).

We will be there with 2 Pintos again. Now with the V8 car, the only issue for us is what two.

We have 3 confirmed Pintos to be at Carlisle. Hey, that's 20% of last year so far.

Bill

Hey Bill,you can count on me and maybe 4 other Pintos from Columbus,Ohio.You need to get with 68cyclone about the tent.He told me that he might or would rent a tent.Either way i will help pay for it.Now how far from Shelton,Conn do you and Connie live.I might be up there the week before Carlisle.If i am maybe we could join up and caravan over to Carlisle.If you need any help with getting things set up let me know.See you then,Harley.

I would like to have a "Pinto" tent, and I would hope that other people will chip in for some of it too. I can't remember how much the tent cost, but can you remind me?

Yes, all the help you can offer. I will contact Carlisle this week. Do you know of anything else I should do? Like I said, I know this is not a official event, but we still would like a strong showing.

Shelton is about 50 miles SW from us. The best way might be for us to meet you on the way, but we can work out the details. You can take RT 58 (I think) to get over to I84 from where you will be. When will you know?

Hey Bill,
 YES I was quite supprised too when the vote came to have the official Pinto meet in Carlisle again.
 I thought you were standing right there?
The vote was on sunday.
 I guess in our infant-cy we are not TOO organized in our efforts.
 We are learning and things will get better as our comunity grows.

Yes, I was, but I did hear that it changed after that event. I never saw anything else on Carlisle for next year so I thought I would do something if no one else did.

Who is putting it togeather?

Hmmm.. I dunno if I'll be there this year or not. I got an 85 Dodge Omni GLH turbo that I might take to the Chrysler Show at Carlisle in July. I haven't decided yet, but it depends the shape of the Pinto. If the tranny's still screwed then I guess the Pinto's out. I don't want to break down 2 years in a row.

Hi Gang,
  You can count on me being there all 3 days, so long as my fuel pump relay doesn't get soaked by the rain like last year. (LOL) I'll of course bring the turbo Cruisin Wagon. Hope to see more Pintos there this year.  There is nothing like getting together with good folks that share the same interest. Has anyone checked in with Paul to see if he has anything in the works with Carlisle ??? Here is his email paulbert07@verizon.net if it's still good. I got it from him last year before we left Carlisle. Hope to see all you Pinto nuts in June.   :welcome:

Post by: 77turbopinto on March 14, 2007, 05:08:20 PM
No need to have your car "finished" or even "started". Just put a sign on it that states what your plans are for it, and what you have done so far.

You have to get there some how, right? Why not enter it and get into the show for 3 days, not have to pay for parking, and you won't have 5 miles to get back to your car with all the parts you buy.

UPDATE: I have applied and paid for the tent (we have a tent). Again, PLEASE support this site and the club (PCCA); when you register please make sure you state you are with PCCA.

Also, please post here if you plan to go.

Got word today from Carlisle that there are 11 Pintos registered so far; fantastic! We had a TOTAL of 15 at the show last year.

The "bad" part is that only 4 are registered as PCCA members (Connie and I are 2 of them).

I have contacted Carlisle and people CAN contact them to update their registrations to add PCCA, and PCCA will get "credit" for the registration. This detail will not cost you anything to do, but it helps the club. If we have 25 registered members BEFORE may 4th, we get the tent for free. Please do your part.

I know I am wayyyy late on this subject but I should have my car drivable by the time the Carlisle event comes around. If it is I will be there with my Turbo Wagon. The reason I have not replied to this topic before is, when this topic was started I had Snow on the ground and I am an Avid Snowmobiler so I was out enjoying my Winter activity. Now that the snow is all gone I am working on my Pinto feverishly to get it on the road. I konw that a Lame excuse but thats my story and I am sticking to it!

Post by: 77turbopinto on April 20, 2007, 07:06:52 PM
OK, well now....  With only a couple of weeks left before the "DEADLINE" on registrations, we only have 7 registered PCCA Pintos and Bobcats.

I did not get the info on NON-PCCA, but I will be geting that soon.

Please remember that we need 15 to get the tent for free. We can do what we did last year and all pitch in, but it would be nice to get it for FREE.

Also, PLEASE be sure that you had "PCCA" on your form. If not, you can contact them and add it, BUT you need to do that BEFORE the "DEADLINE".

WARNING: I will know who did not.....

I contacted my contact about tables and chairs. I think everyone should bring a chair or two if they want. We need to rent or bring tables. I have one that I can put in Connie's car, but it is not that big.

Is there a banner that we can put up like last year?  Anyone??

Thanks again.

I wish I could go this year, but money & car are keeping me from going. I've yet to put in the tranny I got from Pintony & the carb that left me stranded last year is still on the car. I don't even trust the car to get me to work, let alone a long trip like to Carlisle. I must admit I'm gonna miss it, but part blame lies on my 85 GLHT I've been working so hard to get driving.

As of this morning we only have 11 PCCA Pintos/Bobcats. Folks, we only have a few days left and need 4 more for a free tent.

If you plan to register, please do it soon.

If you have registered, be sure you had PCCA on your registration.

Thanks Scott, I will be looking for it.

Sorry Matt, it would have been nice to see you there, but I fully understand your need to make priorities. See you next year.

Hi Bill
I think you have to have 25 pinto's to get the free tent? You better check with carlisle's web site,unless you have a deal with them?
Thanks

Ok I finally registered Sunday night. We have just under 6 weeks until the fun begins. Can't wait to see all you fine folks I meet last year & meet some new Pinto fans also. By the way Spring Carlisle was busy on Friday. There was as usual more than you could see. I've been going to the Fall meet since the early 70's & all of the Spring & Ford meets plus a few of the foreign & kit car meets. If you've never been to Carlisle & you have a Pinto. Now is the time to come on out & enjoy a great wknd with others that have the same passion. Hope to see 50 Pinto's there.

Thanks for the updates people.

I am guessing we have 15 or so members signed up, and maybe a few non-members (or should I say "soon to be members"). Still shy of the 25 we need for a free tent, but we can do what we did last year and split the cost. I hope to have the full count of members early next week.

For those of you that were not there last year or have never been to Carlisle, having the tent is....   well....  much better then not. Just ask all the folks that want to get out of the sun or rain, and have room just to hang out.

Kooter: I think we should have a V8 Pinto class.

Hey all you Carlisle bound Pinto fanatics, If nothing else besets

me, Postalpony & I will be there.  I have been rebuilding the

front suspension with all urethane bushings, All control arms &

both strut rods have been cleaned, wire brushed ,primered & painted

This has been a struggle as I have both of my shoulders in need

of surgical repair.  Sorry, I guess the old man can't do what he

used to. Waaaa, crybaby i guess.

              Looking forward to see old friends

As soon as I get more info I will post it.

10 days to GO!!

Those that have been to Carlisle know about the parade on Sunday for the class trophy winners (3 per class, two Pinto classes). In an effort to have as many Pintos in the parade as possible, I am ASKING that if you don't want to participate in the parade, or can't stay for Sunday, please put a note on your car asking not to be voted for. I can not make anyone do this, again I am only asking. Last year we only had 2 in the parade of the 6 that could have been there. We know it is a pain to do the parade, but it helps our club as well as each member when we get in the puplic eye. The event staff will 'short-stage' any cars with overheating issues.



BTW: I have a few parts for sale in the for sale section. I can bring them if there is someone wanting them.

List for now:

NOS left front wheel lip molding for a 79/80
Driveshaft for a 72 wagon
      (45" o/c, can be used in a turbo or V8 car)
Orange plaid cloth
2 gauge clusters for 79/80 cars

Please check the for sale section for other items; I will see what else I have and add it to this list.

There seems to be an issue wtih the registrations. Carlisle only says that we have 15, but there should be more.

I am not worried.

Just to let everyone know, Connie and I will be bringing/doing a bunch of stuff, and we would like the parking spots next to the tent. Thanks.

   Hello friends    :smile: :smile: :smile:
   My good buddy Ken & I just arrived home after a very wet,windy,
   & treacherous jaunt to Clarksburg, W Va., but after a good
   night's rest we had a beautiful run the rest of the way home.
   I would like to apologize for not being at the PCCA tent more
   than I was, but I made the mistake of bringing 2 cars in very
   different classes/areas, & I am getting too old to cover that
   much ground anymore.
 
   Thanks to Bill & Connie for a great job well done & thanks to
   any & all who took part. It was a great joy to see all my PINTO
   friends & trade stories [lies ?] again.

        Until next time, take care.   Dick Mathias  'postalpony'
