Samiam, what the dickens has gotten into you? Are you trying to show your car? or get a new job as a pimp?? Back to the drawing board, bro. Take some pix that feature the dog-gone car!!
 
Just curious, what else is on the poster besides pics of the car? I mean, the car is actually there to look at. The poster with scanned photos is just a distraction.



No need to "sell" your car. The Stang itself is cool enough on its own right. Don't get caught up in the clutter. If you have lots of mods or an interesting history or a list of previous awards then make a small framed or laminated placecard.



Call me uptight or old school, but I think the cleaner the display the classier. :nixweiss
 
24.....25.....20 or 21



Definately 24 though. The fence reflection is nice:up



The girl....unfortunately sex sells and will probably be a good bait for an otherwise passer by...........:rolleyes:

Right now people are just passing by my car... It's bone stock, sitting in the middle of cars like origional GT500's, New Cobra's, Lightnings, ect.... I have little $$, and ford is a pain about mods, so I am saving until I get out of 36k miles (only about 3 more k)... It'll soon be competing against my buddies 67 Sunbeam Tiger (powered by ford, so it can enter)



I gotta find a way to get people to look at mym car, ,and the judges to pay more attention to the cleanliness....
 
Ok, I see what you're up against. I am still a proponent of letting the car speak for itself but one thing a couple guys did at the European Car Show was to put mats under their cars to "frame" the car. No signs or babes, just the mat.



Mat under a MINI.



Or bring the babe to the event and hand her a microfiber towel and some quick detailer. Kill two birds at once. ;)
 
I would not use any pics with "eye candy" in them. The sign is supposed to showcase the car, nothing else. Your at a car show, not a fashion show. Plus, IMO it looks tacky.
 
I have to concur with Brad on this one. The last thing that a judge wants to see is your car with girls etc. That may be fine for some type of import show but for a concours event I am sure its frowned upon.



Here is the car poster that I have next to my car at shows. It has various pics of the car, my name, and a list of modifications to the vehicle. Its very plain and simple. I even made the easel and put an old horn button Z logo on it as a nice final touch.

Yea what everyone else said and try some higher resolution photos. You really want to try to capture how good the car looks.
