Dash Plaques:

The majority of shows hand out dash plaques and
typically advertise the total number they will have
available. The costs for the plaques range from 75
cents on up. If you are looking to save a couple bucks
this maybe the area to do it.  Car shows have been
handing out dash plaques since the 1960’s. There has
been a new trend to have a magnet dash plaque,
now the owners can stick to their tool box or
refrigerator.

Use YouTube to help promote your car show

An easy way to promote your show after the 1st year is to create a video.  The video can include still shots from your show and video. Try to keep it under 3 minutes to increase the chance for viewers to watch most of it.

Once you have created it post it to some of you favorite car related sites and to your car show website (you have a website to promote your show right).

Keeping the sun out of your eyes at car shows...

Most times at car shows you need to create your own shade.  This is typically done with a pop-up canopy, assuming that the show will allow it and assuming you have room in your car.

Here are a couple of other options:
