Does someone want to try and get permission to put the peanut butter '79 at our tent?

I don't know...that would make a hit with SOMEone at the show! Especially with that turbocharged beast under that wart on the hood.

Nice hunting Micah! Wouldn't it just be easier to bribe someone from Fiesta Faction to "borrow" their car... LOL

Too easy. Plus, this way I can add another strange car to my list of purchases.

I kind of like the South of the Border theme and it could easily be done. We could roll the song "Tequila" during inspection? Sombreros make me smile (not to mention 1800 Anejo). Bright colors and tasty snacks.
Also, it's the start of summer movie season. Movies might be another theme. Screen "Lincoln Lawyer" and other films inside the tent?

I'm down for whatever, but we need to decide soon. lol.
Are you bringing the TC out to Carlisle?

I have another suggestion for the tent... how about a drive in movie theme complete with a really bad movie?
All we need is the screen and a projector for the DVD. I have a DVD I made for my drive in movie event last year complete with old drive in movie ads, Bugs Bunny cartoon, and the worst movie ever made, Plan 9 From Outer Space.
The DVD without the cartoon and movie is here: http://youtu.be/MoLTdVTDS7U
We could easily put together a version for the LOD tent.

I've been dreaming about the movies for years. I have easy access to screens and projectors, but the issue has always been power. LCD projectors, particularly bright ones, are power hungry. If anyone has suggestions for power. (small generator, inverter with multiple batteries, etc.) we could make this happen.
Of course there's always a chance we'd run afoul of the MPAA's public performance rights, too.. so that may at least be something to consider.

well you are not charging people to see it but carlisle charging people to get in the fair grounds. you can pick movies that are public domain to play it safe.
But the MPAA secret police are every where and they drove a Dodge
I have a number of public domain movies on file so that's not a problem. However, if we want one that isn't some are not really expensive, just a few dollars and sometimes no charge.
Bad SciFi or beach/car movies are plentiful in public domain. We could actually have three or four films and even post a time schedule.
We could have old fashioned candies and toys to sell also, I know who to get them from and I'm sure we could work a deal to get stuff on consignment and return whatever we don't sell. The owners are friends of mine and do a lot of my shows. www.bobbhowardsgeneralstore.com

What if we just compile videos of lincolns in different movies and tv shows? A good 30 minutes worth is out there, for sure. Screw the MPAA. lol

How much power do you think we need? I am a generator guy by trade. Pretty sure I can scrounge something up....

Anybody else remember when they used to show movies at Carlisle events when the sun went down? It was years ago.

I think Micah is onto something here... I'm leaning towards Mobster or Fiesta. (Anyone got a Ford Fiesta we can decorate in front of the tent
FIESTA it is!
Sombreros, Mariachi Band/Music, Tequila, Margaritas, Maracas, Ponchos, Piñatas, Cactus, Chile Peppers, bright red and green colors... the possibilities are endless.
We could prop someone in the corner of the tent with a Sombrero, dark glasses and a Poncho for realistic effects!
