SPRING CARLISLE - Carlisle, PA
Wednesday, April 24 - Saturday, April 27, 2013
Spaces: Row "O" 1-8
Carlisle is open on Sunday, but TP leaves Saturday afternoon.

Look for the large TP Tent, near the 1st entrance. Carlisle has grown into one of the major events in antique car restoration. The huge flea market field is filled with just about any part or tool you can imagine. It's been said that "if you need it, you're going to find it at Carlisle". Carlisle is located about 2 miles off the PA Turnpike at Exit 16. In addition, a car corral has a huge selection of antique and special-interest vehicles on display or for sale. Hours are daybreak to dusk.

Book your hotel early, as rooms fill up quickly. Wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for rain, although TP's advance satellite weather forecast for this year is "Sunny and Warm" for all shows.

Although Carlisle Show is open on Sunday, the TP Tent closes Saturday early afternoon (between noon and 3pm depending on crowd). Many (not all) vendors leave Saturday night, so it is wise to come early for the best buys and selection. (Hint: call your order in early. Pay by credit card, and we will have your order ready for pickup at the show.) Carlisle sponsors summer shows and other events, however, TP sets up for Spring and Fall Carlisle only.

THREE BIG DAYS with Car Show Prices and you are invited to SAVE!

Every year, TP has a HUGE SALE Friday, Saturday, and Sunday after Thanksgiving. On hand are Factory Reps from several major tool companies. These reps demonstrate and explain the equipment in the form of a "workshop" on Friday (some of the reps stay Saturday, too). We clear our loading dock and a major portion of our warehouse to provide space for this MAJOR NATIONAL EVENT.

If you've never been to this sale, you'll be amazed! Our 5,000 sq ft showroom is transformed into 25,000 sq ft of showroom and warehouse full of tools, equipment, and hands on demonstrations. Year-end, special, flea-market prices are in effect for these THREE BIG DAYS, and you are welcome to attend and SAVE! Whether or not you've visited TP Tools before, the Thanksgiving Weekend is a great time to stop in.

Our entire facility is very unique - one of the most unusual tool and equipment showrooms you will ever visit, taking almost 20 years to develop. As you enter our store, you'll see tin ceilings, light fixtures from the Cleveland Railroad Station (1920), solid oak beams, carousel horses, oak counters with beveled glass tops, old NCR brass cash registers, roll-top desks, and all types of advertising signs in porcelain, tin and neon. There are usually restored vehicles on display in the warehouse area. These vehicles were all restored using TP Equipment, including our abrasive blasters and HVLP paint spray systems.

Call or write for a list of hotels in the area or other information regarding this and other events. This is one of the largest events for the car restoration market - see you at TP Tools Thanksgiving Weekend!
