Tri-Fives represent such an iconic part of Chevrolet’s history spanning from 1955 to 1957. This includes the well-known One-Fifty, Two-Ten, Bel Air, and Nomad of those years along with the lesser known sub-models like the Delray coupe, Handyman, Townsman, and Beauville wagons.

This coming June we will celebrate all that is “Tri-Five” with a special display and numerous activities planned including a Tri-Five parade at the show. Have a Tri-Five and want to be part of the fun? You can do so in two ways. You can register your Tri-Five for the Showfield or if you think you have a Tri-Five that is awesome or super interesting you can apply for a space inside the special display. Further details will be announced closer to the show on activities so keep an eye out for announcements on here and our social media platforms.

In 1970, the Chevrolet division of General Motors introduced an all new model with it’s name derived from the city in Monaco. The Monte Carlo had a great production run from 1970 to 1988 and again in 1995 to 2007, only being temporarily replaced by the Lumina from 1989 to 1994. The Monte Carlo made it’s mark throughout production in varying ways from aerodynamic advances to stock car racing and more. Join us as we showcase the Monte Carlo in June! More details to follow including many club activities and more.

Have Monte Carlo you think is worthy of display?

In 1985, Chevrolet introduced the IROC-Z, a Camaro version named after the International Race of Champions. Featuring an upgraded suspension, the “wonder bar”, a special decal package, unique wheels and tires, and an optional TPI system from the C4 Corvette, these Camaros made Car and Driver’s Ten Best List for 1985. Join us in June at the GM Nationals as we celebrate 40 years of these historic cars that set the 80’s pony car market on fire!

We will have two unique displays, one in Building T featuring primarily stock, rare, and historic examples of the IROC-Z, and one in a tent with the Third Gen Nationals area of the NPD Showfield featuring modified and custom examples. Both displays will play a crucial part of the Third Gen Nationals, a show within a show within the event. However, you don’t have to be part of the display to join in the fun either, register your IROC-Z for the NPD Showfield in the IROC-Z class (Class Number 329) or come as a spectator to the Carlisle GM Nationals. We intend to have a few guest speakers on the IROC-Z and some seminars as well. More details on that as we get closer to the event.

What would the mid-to-late '70s and early '80s have been without the compact hatches and sedans of their time? They may have been what saved many automakers during this time in automotive history. Two such examples were the T-Bodies of the Chevette and T1000, along with their foreign cousins in Opel and Isuzu, then later Saturn with their T-Body models. This year we are working with a group of enthusiasts to bring an entirely new show within a show to the GM Nationals dubbed "T-Bodies at Carlisle." There are two new special T-Body classes (Class 120 and 125 on the online registration below). We will have a feature "T-Bodies at Carlisle" Tent in the infield along with activities throughout the weekend including a T-Body parade on Saturday!

Do you have a Chevette, T1000, or any other GM T-Body? We encourage you to be part of the fun! More details to come soon as this new event within our event builds!

“Quality over quantity,” this saying has been around for decades, and this year the GM Nationals will once again embrace this motto as part of our special judging process. Professional judging, known as the Standard of Excellence class, will be offered again by the team members from eJudged. The Standard of Excellence Judging class is limited to 50 cars maximum so pre-registration is highly recommended. We take this approach so the judges have time to thoroughly look over each car, offering the best quality service for our participants. Day-of registrations will be accepted, but reserving your space ahead of time is always a good idea. The Standard of Excellence participants will be part of an elite group of cars with their own special section of the NPD Showfield. Cars within the Standard of Excellence class will be given unique awards for the top 15 cars and the Standard of Excellence; Best in Show winner will receive a cup trophy. Judged cars are eligible for Celebrity Choice awards, which take place on Saturday of the event, and are invited to take part in the Winner’s Presentation on Saturday PM.

We believe that one of the most honorable awards you can get at the Carlisle GM Nationals is a Celebrity Choice Award. But do you really know what a Celebrity Choice award means? The deemed "celebrities" are notable people in our hobby, such as special guest, engineers who were the visionaries on the cars you love, to club leaders who make it their mission to bring people to the event each year. Getting a Celebrity Choice award is a true honor because that celebrity is picking one car out of the whole Showfield that means something to them. It's not the traditional judging, as there is no point scoring, but a personal reason behind why someone likes your car. 

Celebrity Choice selections takes place on Saturday of the show. Celebrities will walk the grounds to find that one car that gets their pick. You will know you are a winner right away, because there will be a special sticker on your car, as well as a document that notifies you that you won. Your autographed award will be available for pickup on Saturday evening!

Did you find your name on this year's winners list? If so, you are invited to participate in the Awards Presentation in front of the stage on Saturday evening. The first step is to go to Guest Services to pick up your award. Those that win and wish to participate in the Awards Presentation will parade their car in front of the Grandstand to be announced and to get photos.

Professional photography is available at the Awards Presentation and pictures are available for purchase under the Grandstand. Please refer to the Event Guide for the official times (published two weeks prior to the event).

If you cannot attend the presentation or pickup your award on Saturday evening, we have options for you. After the show you may pick up your award during regular business hours at the fairgrounds, request to have your award shipped for a fee, or pick it up at any Carlisle Events Show up until one year after the event.

Carlisle Events hasn’t forgotten that sometimes it’s nice to take a break from automotive shopping. Join our amazing vendors and artisans selling items such as handmade crafts, jewelry and accessories, kitchen must-haves, unique clothing, treats to temp you, scents to relax you, beauty products and so much more!

The Carlisle PA Fairgrounds is a large footprint that can be a challenge at times, even for the most experienced attendee. 82 acres, 16+ miles of paved roadway, vendors and cars everywhere…it’s easy to understand how you may start wondering to yourself “where did I see that part or car I want to buy?” “How do I get my purchase from its space to my truck?” “How am I going to do this?” 

Never fear, because we’ve compiled a helpful list of ways that enhance your on-site experience at Carlisle! Thanks for joining us and enjoy your time at the show!

1. BRING CASH - The more the better. It’s hard to negotiate a deal without being able to pay.
2. WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES - It’s a lot of walking.
3. SUN BLOCK/DRINK LIQUIDS - You’ll be in the sun all day. It’s important to protect yourself and stay hydrated, especially if your weekend outdoors is your first prolonged exposure to the sun for the year.
4. REMEMBER THE SPACE - Take a picture of the space location or write it down. Every space at Carlisle has a disk to designate the space. Look down and you’ll see the space marker. Write down the letter and number. Don’t try to remember the space or the surrounding area. You’ll spend the rest of the day looking for it.
5. COME EARLY - Rare parts and great deals typically happen for the first person to find them. Set up day(s) and the first day of the event are for the serious shoppers.
6. ACT FAST - If you see a great deal, grab it. If you plan to come back later, it will probably be gone.
7. NEGOTIATE - It’s a flea market so don’t be afraid to make a REASONABLE offer.
8. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED - Chances are good that you will find something you weren’t planning to find, so keep your eyes open.
9. LOOK EVERYWHERE - Even if you are looking for parts for your brand of vehicle, don’t walk past the vendor selling parts for other models or generations just because you assume there’s no way the vendor has what you want. Give their space a look too. They might not only have it, it may be cheap since it’s not what they typically sell.
10. USE THE CARLISLE EVENTS APP - Use the FREE Carlisle Events app to easily find your way back to a vendor (if you know the row and space). You can also use it to check activity schedules, register for other events, connect with fellow enthusiasts via social media, browse a digital copy of the event guide and more.
11. STAY LATE – There are always deals at Carlisle, but sometimes the best ones happen early on day 1 of a show, or late on its final day. Vendors are typically more willing to negotiate when they are packing up – especially large items.
12. BRING A SHOPPING LIST - Our memories aren’t as good as we think. Write it down. You can even make a list on your phone. Take pictures of what you need.
13. BRING A BAG, CART, ETC. - Parts will get heavy so have a way to carry your purchases. Ask the seller if you can leave heavy parts until later.
14. HAVE IT HAULED - Carlisle Events offers FREE* parts hauling. Keep that in mind if you’re looking at an engine, transmission, truck bed, etc.
15. FREE TAXI SERVICE – Need to get from point A to point B but don’t feel like walking it? Carlisle Events offers a FREE* taxi service. Dial 717-960-6429 to secure a ride. 
16. ASK! - If someone has parts for a vehicle but not the ones you need, ask if the seller has it. It might still be in his truck or at home. Even if he doesn’t, he might know someone who does.
17. KNOW THE VALUE - Do some homework on the parts you’re looking for so you know if the price is a good deal.
18. AVOID THE CROWDS - When you arrive, go to an out-of-the-way area to start rather than following the herd.
19. WALK IT ALL - Don’t miss any rows. The Carlisle Fairgrounds isn’t a perfect grid so make sure you hit every row and space.
20. ADVERTISE - Wear a hat, shirt or signboard that spotlights what you’re looking for.  It just might create a conversation, especially if what you’re searching for is obscure and/or rare. 

*While parts hauling and taxi service are free, donations are graciously accepted.  Donated money goes directly to the Chip Miller Amyloidosis Foundation.
