| Hello Everyone,
It's snowing here in Pennsylvania as I write this, but fast forwarding to warmer times, next year at the All-Chrysler Nationals in Carlisle, Pennsylvania the spotlight will be on the Exner Era.The director of the event is providing the dealership building and the grounds around it to showcase Chrysler's Forward Look years. With this, there will be an attempt to re-create the look of a dealership from that time complete with displays and promotional material. Of course, central to this gathering will be the vehicles. This is not an invitational car event, but a show open to everyone with or without a vehicle, be it a work in progress or complete. There is an effort to make this the largest and most elaborate exhibit of Forward Look Vehicles possible, a complete projection of what this era of Chrysler Design represents. That said, this is OUR gathering and we're on the center stage, please send any suggestions on what you, the Forward Look Fan, would like to see incorporated into this event.
So please mark July 10-12 on your calendar, hope to see you there !

Location: little rock, AR | Thanks for the info. I'm trying to fund this trip and the Host hotel and accommodation arrangement would be helpful. There will probably be a lot of us trying to make this show and expense is a major concern. Fuel cost is going to be a major expense for a lot of us and any $$$ saved would be helpful. Those of you that live In and around PA don't have that added expense. Please help us THAT LIVE 1000-2000 MILES AWAY save money by getting room blocks at a cheaper rate. Time is quickly ticking away. Thanks |

So far, a friend from Quebec who happens to have been going to that event every year for 20 years at least, recommended Motel 6, near the fairgrounds. I will probably call and book this week.

Most of you guys make a whole lot more $$$ than I do. Put on your Big Girl Panties and ask the BOSS for your allowance and start making plans. Hopefully gas price will stay down.

| Hi John, just booked my room and Looking forward to it!! I have Loved Exner designs since I was a kid and my Grandmother had a 1962 Valiant 2 Door Coupe, White w/ Red interior, bucket seats. I will always miss "IDA MAE" (my grandmother's middle name). She gave it to my Mom in 1971, and my Dad (with severe Mother In Law Issues, traded her in on a 1971 Pinto Runabout, UGH!!! Moment of silence, please!
I have 3 Forward Look's
1. 1955 Dodge Royal Lancer: Red Bottom, Black Center, White Top,38k original miles,
2. 1960 Dodge "Dart" D100 Swept-side Pickup 79k original miles. (I have only seen 2 ads that are identical to her that show her Shiny Aluminum Grill, but have never seen another one anywhere like her. I have been told she is very rare:Mint Green, White Top, Slant Six
3. 1962 Dodge Lancer 2 Door Hardtop, Nutmeg Metallic, Slant 6, 54000 original miles.
Not sure which one to bring, but leaning toward the 1955 Lancer. |

Location: Hickory, NC | I'm not too familiar with how Carlisle works. I know there's a FL tent and plenty of cars gathered around it.
When you register are you assigned a space that puts you in the group you select? Or do you just park where you want? If someone could explain the details it would be helpful to people who haven't showed a car here before.
And if the dealership is being showcased with FL cars...is everyone gathering there? Or how does that work?

When are you guys planning on arriving? Just wondering if its beneficial to book anything for Wednesday or Thursday. And again please see my post above.
I'm arriving thursday, to go to the "pre show" at the Dodge dealer on Carlilse pike.
Carlilse is a big fairgrounds, car park on grass, and there are paved rows where you drive to your spot.
There are placards to designate classes, but no assigned spots within the class. So, you find you class( map are on carlilse website) and park where you like in that class.
But since we are at the dealership this year, we will not be on the fairgrounds. not sure how parking at the dealer will work, that will be determined when we get a better idea of who's car will be there, who gets to go inside the dealership, and where we'd like to place the cars outside.
We are also asking if anyone has any forward look memorabilia, to bring it to display in the dealership.
More info will come as the date gets closer, and we have a better idea of what's going on. |

| Hey Austin, Details will be worked out over the coming weeks, but Forward Look vehicles will be grouped together for the most part. In past years, we've had the better part of two rows on the show field where we park. Classes include: 55-56, 57-59, 60-61,DeSoto ( all years),Imperial, Fury 56-58,300, and so on. There really isn't any strict procedure on parking our cars, as many of our class lines are blurred in that you, as the owner, can choose to park with cars of the same make or the same year span.
It's gonna be a blast !

| Hello Bob,
This is John, Great to hear, hope you can make it next July !There are a block of rooms being offered at a discount rate at the Red Roof Inn at Carlisle ( see earlier post), but they are limited. The nearest Intl. Airport to Carlisle would be Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. It is a smaller airport with a limited number of flights. BWI ( Balto./Wash. Intl.) and Philadelphia Intl. Airport are also considerations.

I've been coming to Chryslers at Carlisle for about 10 years, and have found that staying at one of the Local Bed and Breakfast that suround the area is not only a good deal for the price, but in most cases is nicer than any chain Hotel. And theres always a delicious breakfast.
One place thats right in Downtown Carlisle i have stayed at is The Carlisle House. They have pleanty of off street parking, and are walking distance of many Restaurants and Shops. |

Just for reference, there is a ethanol free gasoline station about 20-25 miles South of Carlisle, just a couple of miles off of Route 74, North of York, Pa. Hake's Gasoline, they have 89
and 93 octane. I run it regularly in my '58 as well as newer vehicles. In addition,there is another ethanol free station just East of Harrisburg on Rt. 22, USA Gas.

Just as an FYI, the class is 56 and earlier, all cars...Usually not a lot of cars there. I've been known to park in another class before just because I like to be closer to the forward lookers and Dave's forward look tent.
The first time I went, the classes were listed as 57 and up and then "pre 56"...So I was like ok, I'm 56, where do I go...LOL...I'm not sure why they call the class pre 57 and not just 1956 and ealier.
either way, always a good time.

In regard to registering for the show, ' Forward Look Network ' is our club name. When this is notated on your registration, it provides a record of how many owners with their vehicles are attending and helps in numerous ways on the layout of our area and some events that are now in the planning stages. Details will be posted as they develop.

I have had three vendor spaces at the Chrysler nationals at Carlisle for over ten years now. I no longer vend so I sublet two spaces to my neighbor there, and place my pop up camper on the third. I tow it to the meet from Alabama, (800 miles), with whatever collector car I drive there. Last year was my 69 Chrysler 300 convertible, this year most likely a 69 Fury Custon Suburban wagon. A vendor space costs $90.00 and is for the entire event. Motels will run $125.00 and up per night. Do the math. It's great not having to deal with traffic going in and out every day, and there is a night life at the fairgrounds that's a lot of fun. Good facilities, good food connessions, It's all there. Will. |

Location: North Australia | I have begun planning to come to this show from Darwin in Australia with my Wife . I figure this show will be my best chance to see the FL cars in the flesh.
To say I am excited about this is an understatement, I hope we can pull this trip off!
We have started to research the trip and I need some ideas to best use the week after the show in Carlisle. I was thinking to road trip along the coast, or maybe go to the lakes.
I have seen the North east classic car museum website and have been looking for a classic boat show or museum to visit too (no luck here). Both of us are keen to see America, but not sure what our best options are? Keen to hear your ideas.
Also real keen to meet the FL family during the show weekend.
We should come up with an idea so we can recognise FL Network members at the show. FL Network tee shirts or hats or something like that?

Location: York County, PA | Dave, this is for what it is worth. When I was a little five year old girl (about 1959), I had an ESSO shirt from the local gas station that I literally wore out. I remember it having ten or twelve 1959 models of cars on the front, and the big ol ESSO sign on the back of that t shirt. I have never seen one since, but I wish I would. It was only done in a four color (red, yellow, green, blue, plus black) scheme and was pretty primitive by today's standards. Something to think about. |

I thought hard about trailering my 61 Newport down from Maine but between an unknown timeframe for restoration and other things I have going on in the same week, I am going to drop some stress and enjoy everyone else's cars. Can't wait to see you all and your cars! |

Get your road atlas and bring up www.visitpa.com for starters. The list of PA county tourism offices will each detail highlights in each county. For Maryland it is visit Maryland.org. For West Virginia it is www.wvtourism.com. Also, AAA Tour Guides will provide a broad overview. As a local, we have our picks for a Sunday afternoon ride, but everyone is different. Thank you much for the contacts. That should be exactly what I want..........................MO |

| Hello Everyone,
I met with the director of the Chrysler show last week to work on some some special events that are being planned for our Forward Look presentation. Stay tuned, as some
announcements should be made within the next few weeks. One topic discussed was our parking area for the show. There is space in the special exhibit area for approximately
100 vehicles . In the event that we exceed this approximate number of vehicles, we will have access to our traditional show field area near the grand stand. If anyone bringing a
FL vehicle would prefer to park in our regular designated area, regardless of space availability , let me know in advance.
Also, I did learn that if we have at least 25 vehicle owners write in ' Forward Look Network ' under ' CLUB ' on their registration, Carlisle will provide us with a FREE show tent. Please
notate this on your form. More details to follow.......

(Otherwise, why bother making so many useless/worthless/annoying postings?)
