NO..BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

SLS6 is pleased to announce that Phil Borris will be joining us at Carlisle with copies of his excellent book "Echoes of Norwood". If you have not bought this book yet, SLS6 is the perfect time. You can have Phil autograph it while your there. Thanks Phil for supporting the SLS once again..BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Thanks Brian

For those of you who do not want to wait until the event to pick up a copy or for those who already have it, just bring it with you to SLS6 and I will be more than happy to sign it for you.

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

The SLS6 crew would like to welcome Steve Fryes and his incredible Super Car memorabilia collection. Steve, or to many
"Big" will be featured in our showroom with many one of a kind and very rare Super Car era items that take years to acquire. Another great reason to visit SLS6 at Carlisle this year. Thanks Big...BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Thank you Brian and everyone else involved with SLS!

Looking forward to a great show and better yet, the &quot;BEST&quot; gathering of friends. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Sounds like it's gonna be great!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Tom and Eric Gardner will be attending SLS6, showing off their famous exhaust systems. I understand a chambered and deep tone system will be on display. This is a first at SLS, a top shelf vendor displaying their goods at the showroom. Thanks, Tom and Eric..BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Cool Brian!!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Brian, thanks for the invite. Maybe I'll drive up for the day and show an Olds outside. I'm nearing completion on a frame-off '72 442 that is built to be a multi-purpose vehicle; show, race, drive. I'm changing some stuff on the race car so I can enter some races this year; couldn't do it last year due to my back surgery. I'm also trying to add another Olds to my small collection, and if all goes well, maybe THAT car might show up. I'll keep you informed as I know more details. I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of last year's event and look forward to seeing everyone soon.

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Really looking forward to this show. Stepped outside this morning and the weather was great. The SLS will be my highlight show this year and I can barely control my anxiety. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Just 12 days away form the start of SLS 6, the Summer of '69 edition. The building will be filled once again with some of the rarest '69 GM cars ever produced. Steve Shauger and his team will be doing Vintage Certifications starting Thursday the 19th. The building will be open early Thursday for all entrants and spectators. VC cars are encouraged to arrive ASAP Thursday so your cars can be placed on the inside lift for undercarriage inspection. This will be critical since we cannot move cars inside starting Friday. There are a number of fresh restorations and first time seen cars this year as always. New for this year is the 40X100 outside tent area for overflow parking. This was created for guys that can only make it one or two days, and are still looking forward to being a part of the show. Also I am very happy to announce that Gardner Exhaust will be displaying their excellent systems in person. Our own 'Big' Steve will be on hand with his incredible Supercar era memorabilia collection. And as always SLS6 collector tee-shirts will be available at the show. Last years edition sold out by Friday. Anyone wishing to sign the official banner of SLS 6 will be able to. Sunday morning it will be given away to one lucky car owner as always.

In addition, author and historian Phil Borris will be on hand with copies of his book 'Echoes of Norwood'. He will be autographing his book, BUT at 1:00 Saturday he will be unveiling a recently discovered Norwood artifact that is sure to be a special part of SLS6.

I would like to thank all the participants, and the great help we receive from all involved. And of course GM Carlisle for giving us an incredible venue to show these wonderful cars and historical items. Without the guys and gals willing to help out, we would not be able to pull this off...BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Very cool!!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

very cool..I'll be stopping by Sat!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Move in Thursday the 19th should start @ 8:30 AM.. BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Sounds like a great weekend!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

We are going to try to position the NOR artifact so you can get your photo taken with it.

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

I've started packing, decisions decisions.....come on SLS! This is going to be a great time...

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Only 4 days until SLS 6. What's the final list of cars?

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

I'll be there Friday and Saturday

This was the scene Monday June 16th at Carlisle prepping for Solid Lifter Showroom 6. As any veterans of the show can see, there has been plenty of outside parking spaces made available to us this year. The row of blue striped tents will be removed to grant easy access to the entry ramp into the building. Trailer parking will be much the same, but additional parking will be available to us inside the grounds for the expected overflow. The trailer unload procedure may be changed slightly from past years because of the tents, but it looks to be something that will not be to difficult. Please be patient with move in this year.

This year, the front showroom will be filled to capacity with the new for 1969 427 hi-performance models including the 435 Corvette, the factory 427 Chevelles and Camaros along with the fresh and exciting offerings form Dick Harrell and Don Yenko. Rounding out this years showroom are the L/78 Novas, Camaros and Chevelles some with the L/89 option and JL/8. Lets not forget the 302 Z/28's either. As always, expect a few surprises, and with the added tents outside more cars and owners than ever can participate.

Author Phil Borris will be on hand with his excellent book &quot;Echoes of Norwood&quot; and he will be unveiling a newly found Norwood artifact that has not been seen in decades Saturday at @ 1:00PM. Collector &quot;Big&quot; Steve Fryes will be displaying his dealership memorabilia collection that will keep the hardcore Chevy fans busy for hours. Steve Shauger and his Vintage Certification Team will be on hand judging the survivor cars, and will be available to answer questions all weekend. And an SLS first, Gardner Exhaust will be displaying their excellent systems and will be able to answer any of your exhaust system need, and perhaps fill a few new orders as well. Both Friday and Saturday 427 seminars will be taking place, with a Q and A and door prizes for the participants. Don't forget the 2014 SCW SLS6 edition tee-shirts sure to sell out . This shirt will be a sure sell out as always. Look forward to seeing everyone this weekend and drive safe..BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Sweet set up !!!!!!!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif[/img]

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Brian,

You are pulling ALL the Stops and Bells and Whistles for this one.....surely will be an Amazing Event. Everyone will appreciate all your hard work and effort.

Please take lots of pics.

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Brian...very cool!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

It looks like it will be another amazing show! Great job.

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

I wish we could make it. Next year is a must!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

What a great idea, expanding the SLS outside. We'll be there Sat morning/can't wait to see the lineup of cars this year.

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

The SLS6 outside area will hopefully let owners bring out more cars that cannot commit to the entire weekend, but still be part of the SLS experience. It will be interesting to see how this plays out, and if it was a good idea..BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

SCW is loaded and ready for a 5:00AM leave. The Daytona Yellow Yenko Chevelle, LeMans Blue Dick Harrell 427 SS and Monaco Orange '69 300 post 396/375 Chevelle are amazingly ready before 6:00PM. A reminder to all participants that if you would like to bring snacks, and a cooler of water,Pepsi/Coke BEER [hint} to share with the others, please do so. It has been a SLS tradition since day one. Everyone drive safe and we will plan on opening the doors Thursday by 9:00AM...Drive safe!....BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Truck and COOLER are loaded and ready to roll. One more day of work....See you all Fri, 7 am ...safe travels!

Please post lots and lots of pictures:-)

I have SLS-7 on my wish list for next year.

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

I was on limited time to take things in, so I'm sure I did not get the full experience but... The section with all the 1969 Novas was awesome! I really don't want to give it away without pics. Looking forward to seeing more!

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

I was astounded by the cars in (and outside of)this building. Can anyone link me to more info on the day two Camaro with slots and sidepipes just inside the door?

I would like to thank everyone who attended SLS 6. It is truly amazing to see a group of cars and people that care so much for the hobby. The &quot;Summer of '69&quot; collection was simple fantastic. The SLS Showroom really gives you the feel of a well stocked dealership from 1969. Everyone was so helpful and the show ran like clockwork. From set up, to tear down, not a hitch. The crowds were huge during the show, and everyone left with a smile. I want to thank all the car owners, our great guests like Phil Borris and his &quot;Echoes of Norwood' display, Big Steve and is Memorabilia collection that had show goers fascinated with such a fine collection of rare dealer items, and Gardner Exhaust, our first vendor to display at SLS. The set up was made easier with the floor-plan designed by Jeff Murphy, and the SLS team of volunteers who moved cars most of the day Thursday. No word yet as to next years theme, but SLS 7 should once again be a highlight of the GM Carlisle experience...BKH

Re: Gm Carlisle Solid Lifter Showroom
 

Thanks for sharing the pics Brian! Awesome cars present...like always!

The Vintage Certification team would like to thank you for the invite and your support. The SLS was once again an amazing event which featured both restored and unrestored cars. At the end of the day it's all about seeing old friends and meeting new ones. We look forward to certifying more unrestored cars and seeing what new cars participate next year. The SLS display is always new and fresh which makes it a must see event. Congratulations [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]
