Default Bragging Boards?

Don't know the term, but where do people get those placards they put in front of their cars at shows that detail all the car specs? Most of the ones I've seen look like foam-board.

Do they design them and then get them printed or is there a company that does it?

TIA,
Bob

Thanks, guys. Will check them out.

Picking up my "new" 78 with a 383 stroker, etc., etc., tomorrow. Can't wait! Going from 175 HP to ~ 450 HP...

Cheers!
Bob

Hey John,

I noticed he's in New Hope. My wife and I lived in Plumsteadville and then Perkasie. She had relatives in Lansdale some years ago.

I'll wave when we go past the Lansdale exit on the NE extension on the way to Delaware!

PS: I like the flexibility Don has with the layouts, etc.

Small world isn't it. I am actually in Montgomeryville but mail comes from Lansdale PO.

Don did my showboard a few years ago & it knocked my socks off. He is very creative and wants you to be happy with his work. You will not be disappointed.
