"Subtle" has new "show" accessories - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Putter · 08-24-2006, 10:33 AM

I just got these photos from Dean, and .... well... I gotta get my truck up to show standards FAST....
I asked him if his wife knew...and his reply was....She ENCOURAGED these photos. (Now THAT is a good wife!)

Anyway, I will shut up and put up.....the pics...

Holy Hooters batman!! He should send one of those into Carcraft, it has been a running joke to send in reader's rides with ladies leanin on the cars for a couple of months with no end in sight!

Jerry Jones · 08-24-2006, 10:51 AM

Great pic's, but ummm, where is the truck?

chevybill · 08-24-2006, 12:44 PM

hey Putter,

Where was this show? I need a whole lwb truck bed of those "show accessoies". Did Subtle 71 make to the Woodward cruise in Michigan? I thought he was planning to attend.

Joe67 · 08-24-2006, 12:51 PM

At least their heels aren't clear

Nice pics

subtle71 · 08-24-2006, 02:16 PM

Putter, I thought you were just messing with me this morning when you said you were going to post these.

The show was Arkansas Blast at the State Fairgrounds in Little Rock this past weekend. (Therefore I was not able to make it up to the Woodward dream cruise.) We were at this show supporting one of our local dealers, DeBoard Electronics out of Conway, Arkansas. We had the Polk F150 in their booth. Polk had a separate booth close by DeBoard's that had a sweet '96 VW GTi turbocharged and making about 380 horse at the wheels, my buddy's Kandy apple red '96 Silverado that is in this month's StreetTrucks magazine (September 2006), and ol' whitey got dusted off and rounded out the booth. The guys at CS Soundoff were nice enough to bring her(subtle) and my wife up on Friday afternoon in the enclosed trailer. And before Putter asks, the truck was in the trailer, my wife behaved herself and got to ride inside the truck!

Putter · 08-24-2006, 02:25 PM

No $#!T, I was just about to make that very point....that you WIFE came up in the trailer???

Where are the pics of THAT?? I bet her hair was a mess!

subtle71 · 08-24-2006, 02:36 PM

By the way, ol' whitey and my friend's '96 Chevy both took home first place trophies in their classes. The VW took home second place. Here are some shots of them. These are for 70 rs/ss' benefit! The last pic shows off Putter's handywork with the fuel door/side marker project.

Yeah! But close.

Dean,
Go back up to my second pic. Is that a tag you put on at the show, or is that one registered in Mississippi & legal? Just curious.

Mmmmm...carshow chicks.......

**Yukon Jack** · 08-24-2006, 03:00 PM

Nice accessories. Which vendor did you get them from?

Ahhh! The wonderful world of eBay! It is an original 1971 Mississippi "sample" plate. I picked it up in almost like new condition for only $10. Score! I also have a couple of new unissued Pike county MS 1971 tags off eBay and one issued rusty 1971 Pike county MS tag that I got at a flea market. Apparently ALL tags expired in the month of October back then. I put this plate on at shows and for photo shoots. The company had a problem with someone filing a false hit and run accident report against one of my old company demo vehicles. Little did they know that not only was that demo vehicle not in Maryland during that month, we had sold it to the guy with the '96 Silverado about 12 days before the "accident" alledgedly happened. I try this as a "preventitive measure".

You work for "tha man". Can we register classic plates yet, like other states can?

Putter · 08-24-2006, 03:22 PM

I don't think we can, but I will ask around. We have a few troopers in our office.

subtle71 · 08-24-2006, 03:36 PM

You have mail! Enough to keep you busy for a few minutes!

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-24-2006, 05:36 PM

Wowsers, Nice trophies

The show next weekend in Millington has even nicer trophies! If you're not doing anything...

LUV2XCLR8 · 08-24-2006, 05:43 PM

Considering it, have to see what time the family bbq is 1st

70rs/ss · 08-24-2006, 06:19 PM

In AZ you can register them with the old plate and or a correct vintage plate (even if it was never used on the car in the past) I have my original AZ plate on my Camaro (it was on it when I bought it), yeah I know I suck cause I found a rust free 70 RS/SS Camaro that had been parked for the last 20 years of its life with all OEM equipment still there, right down to the rotted Bias ply tires. I think most states have gone to a classic plate deal since the hot rodding business is so huge!

PS thanks for the picts, I love........cars, yeah that's it cars!!

subtle71 · 08-24-2006, 07:54 PM

70 rs/ss,
Anytime! You're welcome. We'll let you forward them over to CarCraft.

Forward done, not sure how that goes, it may or may not work as it is not mine? Keep an eye out, I get mine evy month so if it shows I'll let you know.

From what I hear, the upkeep and routine maintenance on one of those is out of this world.
But I would like to borrow one from time-to-time......
