Fall Carlisle for parts

I am in need of several items for my 49 F3 and am debating if I should go to Carlisle PA for the fall show? Since I am only 2.5 hrs away is it a good swap meet for getting parts or is it a new parts vendor show. Will they have various used parts ? I have never attended any of the Carlisle events.

Big swap meet, lots of parts, but the weather is not looking good for the weekend so not sure how many vendors will bail out. Vendor spots on grass fields and heavy rains dont mix well together.

If you are looking for sheet metal look in the area that is alongside the turnpike
