Here's mine. Created myself in PowerPoint back in 2006 and had printed on foamboard at one of the FedEx stores. About $10.00 per square foot. I got 3 different sized boards for $60.00.

That's very creative. How do they hold up in the wind and did you provide a stand for them?

Wind can occasionally be a problem if it is gusting .... but not too much problem over the past 10 years.

I made/designed it and printed on an 11" x 17" sheet. I didn't want it too big.

Wait, did I read that right? You have a 1:18 scale model of your car?

Yes, my son bought me a Blue and a Black MM off E-Bay as a Christmas present back in December 2003. My son kept the black one and I have kept the blue one in my trunk organizer to display on my rear window deck during car shows. It even has my license plate on it. It is actually a 1:18 scale Crown Vic modified to look like a Marauder with wheels, exhaust and bumper lettering. Not exact; but close enough. I also have a 1:43 scale 1963 Marauder in DBP in the original package and two 1:64 scale DBP in customized/personalized blister packs from Peter.

I had this one done professionally by Don's Showboards, because it came configured with a stand I could park a tire on so it won't blow over. Don and I worked on the design together, going through 5 iterations before I was happy. You can read his web site information in the lower right corner of the showboard. You can see how I use it below (in my signature), or in the pictures in the Walt Disney Imagineering thread.

Frankly, he had more graphics and layout capabilities than I did, so it was worth going outside this time around (previous showboards I had done were partnerships between me and FedEx Office for printing).

Where did you get the Stock Specs for Performance ?? RWHP and BHP are two different things and from everything that I have seen here ... No one has ever reached 330 RWHP in a Naturally Aspirated Marauder. Stock Spec is 302 BHP (Brake Horsepower measured at the Flywheel before losses). SAE Net Horsepower is also measured at the crankshaft. No such thing as RW BHP. Stock Top Speed was limited to 119-120 MPH unless it was altered by a custom tune. I suspect that 330 BHP is also after a custom tune. I am confused.

No mention of an Aftermarket Moonroof on a 2003 MM ??

34 x 34, I love the pop up aspect of the display. it doesn't take up much space to tranport and easy setup and take done. it comes with a carrying case.

Kenny dynoed my car after it was delivered to his shop in Indianapolis, and these were the "off the boat" statistics I pulled from that documentation.

The word INTERIOR is spelled wrong on the Black Mamba board. "INTIEROR". Hate for you to have that printed wrong.

There are a number of "grammer" errors.

For my board, which is the best, I did it in word to check for errors. There were several revisions.

Mine are both cheap and easy. No board. I use nice letter size card stock placed inside the car in the lower left corner of the windshield with the text below. No wind or rain worries. Nothing to block the view of the car.
