Went to Carlisle yesterday. Great weather - mid 60s and sunny, except about 6 pm an hour of rain and drizzle.

Saw maybe 1/2 of what was there. Forgot how big the show was!

Got a press - a 20 ton floor model from one of the tool dealers - $100. A better deal I don't think exists! I got the last boxed one and that was about 11 am Friday. Saw no others. Must be a rare item - heavy as a bare small block block too. No fun to tote and carry it a mile to the car.

Got an air nibbler too. A few rolox and other $1 items. Looked at lots of the 'for sale' cars - nothing exciting except a 66 Mustang ragtop from europe (i suppose - german labeling on dash, mirros set way out on fenders like they do in Japan). $9500, 289 and 4 spd. all there and in good shape.

The 'new' parts (carbs, intakes, cams, etc) were about the same price as Summit and Jegs, but those places offer easier returns if something is wrong and Summit is 45 minutes from here...

Good trip and day out without 'adult supervision' (the wife)
