Somewhere, someone is finally getting around to putting their Christmas decorations away (guilty)!  For car lovers, however; the real gifts are found within the automotive flea market of Spring Carlisle (April 20-24).  Presented by eBay Motors in 2022, this event hosts a treasure-trove of car themed items, be they parts, merchandise, collectibles, signage, collector cars, and more.  The “more,” really could be anything and that is one of the biggest draws for the nearly 100,000 like-minded enthusiasts.

In addition to the items available within the automotive flea market, the Manufactures Midway welcomes many of the top suppliers in the automotive industry.  Their displays and merchandise, mixed with the ARMO Hot Products Showcase tent, act to spotlight the latest and best new products.  ARMO, which is a member of the SEMA council continues its mission at Spring Carlisle and beyond to preserve and promote the automotive restoration hobby.

Speaking of Carlisle Auctions, the crew from America’s Automotive Hometown auction house will move 400+ classic and collector cars across the block on April 21-22 at the neighboring Carlisle Expo Center.  The Spring Carlisle Collector Car Auction features an all-truck hour on April 21, a planned charity consignment, and of course cars and trucks that span every era of automotive production.

If X marks the spot for those who enjoy the thrill of the hunt, then this event is a must!  Getting involved is very easy too, in fact a phone call or a few clicks on the web can assure your inclusion in Spring Carlisle and/or the Spring Carlisle Collector Car Auction.  Those looking to sell merchandise or a car within the car corral, attend as a buyer or simply purchase an admission ticket to be on grounds and walk about should call 717-243-7855 or visit CarlisleEvents.com.
