 Carlisle Wrapup: 450+ Photos

Each year, Carlisle Productions holds automotive events throughout the summer. Known best for their bi-annual auto jumble, as well as dedicated events for automotive genres like all-Ford, all-GM, all-Chrysler and all-truck, it is the Import Kit/Repica event that might be described most eclectic . It is a home for orphans - brands and genres of cars that normally wouldn’t draw out a big enough crowd in and of themselves to warrant a show of their own on a Carlisle scale.

Even more awesome to see so many awesome cars there. If we keep it up, this'll be THE Volvo show to go to in the USA each year. Too bad it's always on the same weekend as ipd's GTG, though at 3K miles away, only the most crazy Volvo nuts will have a hard time choosing.

BTW, I am soooo in love with that white R above. That might be one of the cleanest modded Rs I've ever seen.... totally subtle, and totally in keeping with Volvo design. I'd take mine in a wagon with clear lensed V70 upper taillights and call it perfection.

I have a question.........is it vain to look at all the photos till you find one of your car? That's what I did (gold 240 wagon w/ turbo wheels). Then I emailed it to relatives and friends who think I'm crazy for driving 700 miles to put my "old" wagon in a car show.

No way. That's exactly what I did too.

George, I can't believe you took all those photos...I almost can't believe I looked at all of them either!

All I can say is...wow...VOLVO-LICIOUS!

Looking forward to next year already!

Looks like it was a nice turnout! I will be attending next year if nothing happens. Really nice to see so many 200/700/900/850 Bricks. Wagons and Sedans.
