Car show card

I've made what is called a 'show card' for the Mustang. It's just going to be in a 8.5x11 document frame, probably sitting somewhere in the engine bay.

Anyone done this before? It seems weird to have one for what I consider a daily driver, but I've always enjoyed reading them on other vehicles.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

I like it! I've seen them around at various car show but never thought of doing one myself. What software did you use to create that?

Under Window Tint you may want to put what % it is.

I used PhotoShop to create an 8.5"x11" image. I had been working on a 'cutout' of the Mustang from a picture I took, so the hard part was already done.

There were several examples online, but none exactly like what I wanted. I drew from the examples and came up with what you see. Not too flashy since the car is fairly conservative (black and white...go figure).

I think Skip has one for the cobra.

I've considered getting one, but I always modded the car more so I never did.

Display Binder

Looks Great. I did something similar for my Racecraft 420S. Created it in Powerpoint and used it for the cover sheet on a 1-inch 3 ring binder. Inside I have additional information like picture of Steve Saleen when he was signing the car, dyno sheets, etc.
