Anyone run a show truck?

I was wondering if any of you guys put your truck in shows. If so, how have you done? And, have you done anything to the interior or underhood to "dress it up" ? Or is it all exterior work?

I've showed the '84 Lariat a few times. Get everything as clean as possible.

I've entered mine in a few shows. Won a trophy at a Bass-Pro show in Houston once.
I haven't done anything to mine except clean it nicely.
The HD is pretty blingy anyway

Hey Jamzy, were you on I20 going East through Arlington this morning? Traffic was slow and when I finnally passed the one causing the problem, it was a white 04 Heritage STX. That V6 was having trouble keeping up with the flow.

I hand wash, use a cleaner, two wax jobs, chrome cleaner (dang that Lariat has a lot), tire wash, crawl underneith and wash everything



Under the hood (sorry I don't have a great shot) but everything gets a degreaser, and or simple green to make it dirt free.

Interior,

Vac up everything, simple green for any spots, any vinal/leather cleaned up with armorall/or the like.







It's mostly just spendin quality time with your truck and then showin it off to others that like it.
