Been a long time since I was there but it is dominated by mustangs. Don't get your hopes up that it is a early ford parts jackpot

I was hoping to find someone who could make a battery case for my 39 ford i purchased a 6 volt optima and now i need the case but if what you say is true about mostly mustangs i just may be wasting my time and money thank you for your input .jim s

Send a pm or email to Glenn Sanders. He vends there for Spring, All Fords and Fall. I'm sure he can help you with any info you may need on the Carlisle Shows.

All Ford Carlisle is worth a shot for old Ford parts but I can tell you there are less and less vendors at the spring and fall shows selling old Ford parts. It's a crap shoot ....

As for the all Ford Carlisle event, I have heard it's a decent swap meet but no where near the number if vendors at spring and fall and the content definitely is more oriented to newer stuff. My buddy went up with his 46 Merc street rod recently and he was one of the few early Fords there.

I would give it a try but Hershey in the fall is your best bet ....

I got tired of looking at bottles and clocks and Chevy parts at both Spring and Fall carlisle and now only attend All Ford. Surprising amount of flathead (49-53 anyway) last year. Sheet metal, trim, and mechanical. It is a smaller flea but stuff is there.

I always take some stuff up, and usually bring it home. This year an early take off 8A differential 4.10 ratio and 49 convertible door handles. Oh, and always a cooler.. l
