COUNTDOWN TO
ALL-CHRYSLER NATIONALS 2010

CLASSIC TO LATE-MODEL CARS FOR ANY BUDGET
Sell or Buy a Vehicle in our Car Corral

Over 300 Mopars will be available for sale in the All-Chrysler Nationals Car Corral. The best part about the car corral is that you can meet with the seller, drive the vehicle, negotiate your own price and see and touch the car in person. Notary services including temporary tags are available right in the car corral. All vehicles in the corral must be for sale, in running condition and cannot be displayed on trailers. For more information or to purchase a car corral space, please contact us at 717-243-7855 or email info@carlisleevents.com.



    TURN YOUR PARTS AND RELATED MERCHANDISE INTO CASH
    Become a Vendor and Sell Your Automotive Merchandise

    With nearly 3,000 vending spaces at the All-Chrysler Nationals, the swap meet is the place for the parts you need to finish the job that’s been sitting in your garage for years or to find your next Mopar project. Parts, memorabilia, collectibles and literature – if it’s Mopar related you’ll likely find it in the All-Chrysler Nationals Swap Meet. Interested vendors must be selling automotive merchandise or at least an 80/20% mix. Spaces are approximately 10’frontage x 30’depth and rent for $80 per outside space for the entire event. For more information or to purchase a car corral space, please contact us at 717-243-7855 or email info@carlisleevents.com..

      “SHOW THEM AS YOU FOUND THEM” BARN FIND DISPLAY
      True time capsules on display in Building Y

      Building Y is going to be a little different in 2010. There won’t be any shiny chrome or over-restored paint. Instead, we’re going to fill it with Barn Finds!! We’re looking for the coolest Mopars right out of the barn and we want to see flat tires, dirt and bird poop – just the way you found it. We’re hoping to see some of the Barn Find cars back in 2011, fully restored, so that everyone can see the transformation. If you have a really special Mopar that’s been hidden away, please complete and submit the 2010 Invitational Form.

            FAMILY FUN FOR UP AND COMING MOPAR ENTHUSIASTS
            Enjoy the Kids at Carlisle Activity Center

            The All-Chrysler Nationals is fun for the entire family, and we have not forgotten the kids. In the Kids at Carlisle Activity Center Area, we have automotive themed crafts for kids and parents to enjoy together. There is also a contest for kids to design a poster around our new mascots, Max and Mandy the Mechanic. Max and Mandy will visit the kid’s area periodically throughout the event. Another new contest is for “Carlisle Cuties” – babies and toddlers up to age 3 – to dress to impress in their Chrysler or Carlisle themed apparel. Cuties will meet at the Grandstand on Sunday at 12:30; all participants will receive a toy and the cutie with the best outfit will win a $100 US Savings Bond. We’ve also added new play activities that we think will “wow” the young ones. Come and check it out!



            STANDARD OF MOPAR EXCELLENCE
            Professional judging for stock, modified and OE restored Mopars

            For those who are ready for something more than the participant ballot judging or if you took 1st Place in your class in the past, the All-Chrysler Nationals offers the Standard of Mopar Excellence (SME). SME judging has the cars competing against the judging sheets on a 100 point scale rather than against each other. SME is not to be taken lightly and competitors often return year after year using the scoring sheets and the judges’ advice to improve their scores. Click here to register for SME competition.

                MOPAR SURVIVOR DISPLAY MOPAR SURVIVOR DISPLAY
                All-Original, Untouched, and Unrestored

                Survivors are true time capsules and are the best way to see exactly how these vehicles were originally assembled on the line. They still have their original factory applied paint, interiors and drive trains; or at least a minimum of 85% of it. Thanks to Mel Major we’ve been able to bring you over forty unique examples for each of the last several years. Stop by the Mopar Survivors Display and take lots of reference photos for your restoration project, enhance your knowledge or just to admire these rare beauties. If you have a Mopar that you feel might qualify as a Survivor please contact Mel directly at mkmajor@verizon.net for more information.

                    Sponsored by Mopar Muscle Magazine

                    The younger generation is the future of the Mopar hobby and we want to make sure they have a home at the All-Chrysler Nationals. If you haven’t checked out the Young Guns classes yet, you might be surprised to see that what they are doing isn’t a whole lot different than what we “old timers” are used to. Young Guns classes are open to licensed drivers, age 16-25.

                    ATTENTION CAR CLUBS – COMPETE TO SEE WHO IS THE LARGEST
                    Will Your Club Measure Up? Take the Club Challenge

                    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 All-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.

                    2009 Club Challenge Winners:
                    1st – Northeast Hemi Owners Association
