1956 Chevy Custom "Miss Taboo"
yesterday got the sign back from the pinstriper, right now waiting to get the display parts from the shop so we can start assembling the display and getting it pre wired for the lights. also started searching for carpet to laydown. got a quote from one store and about fell on the floor when they wanted over $250 bucks for each section. We wand 4 10x10 pieces with binding around it so that we can scale the display down if needed. im still working on assembling the judges book for the show. im already up 30 pages in mainly pictures, still have to do specs, mods, and a little history on the car. its going to be a massive book.

It ain't cheap to do a display on this level, that's for sure! And considering how little it gets used, it's even harder to fork out that kind of money.
Yeah it's rediciulous but we are going be showing it a lot more indoors than any other car we have had before and we need a better display than what we built before. We plan on doing the grand national next year with it.
Not really going to hit the circuit but both my grandpa and I both want to have the experience of showing at the grand national and this is the car to take down there. So far all that is for sure on shows this year is roadster show, Nsra at Clark county, goodguys puyallup and Beaverton elks because that was Ron's favorite show.
Went by and saw the one part of the show sign. Came out really great ill take pics when we get the rest of them. The display should start to take shape this weekend because the stantions will be finished so we can get those painted. Found some lights that will work for around the car and in the engine bay. This weekend I'm going to get a few pictures of the car enlarged for the display.
