Default First year at Carlisle, question about vendor parts availability.

This will be my fifth year at Carlisle and my first owning a vette (82). I’m need to redo my brakes and was wondering if I could save some money by taking my cores with me and purchase new calipers? Not sure how much stock vendors bring.

They come prepared. :yesnod:

If you know which vendor you are using give them a call to confirm...

If you pre-pay most vendors will have the parts waiting for you.

Some will, some won't. I for one do not bring product to sell unless customers call me ahead of time. The reason for this is because we at Van Steel feel it's better to educate people on the products they buying and why things go wrong. If you come by our booth you'll see that we bring a front and rear section of a frame fully dressed w/suspension parts. Our displays are both set up wrong so we can show people whats going on under the car. We do bring some little things to sell once in awhile. However it's not enough to accomidate a lot of people. We do offer free shipping to and will take cores from people to rebuild.
