Car Show Door Bars

[jorge figueroa]

My name is Jorge Figueroa of Puerto Rico
I've been in several classic car shows
and the use of the bars in the doors was a success
people no longer sit in my delorean without permission

You would think...but I had my PVC door bars on my car with a sign taped to them "DO NOT SIT IN CAR!" and while at a Denver car show, a teenager JUMPED over the bar to land in my passenger seat, WHILE I was leaning into the driver's side. I had a "colorful" conversation with him...

That really looks great. Even when you are right there some kids manage to climb into the car when your not looking. Those bars should discourage most of that.

I think I'm a pretty easy-going guy, but THAT would've sent me over the edge. I would've DRAGGED his ass out of there before the "colorful" conversation. I just don't understand some people. How old was this moron?

I am amazed that y'all take your cars to car shows considering how much of a pain it is.

There are the good acquaintances that keep me going. Mostly the +50 and the 5 to 10 year olds.

Today I was taking 02650 to a show, but this one was in conjunction with other tech/craft events. So I knew the spectators could potentially be unfamiliar with car show etiquette and may be more likely to try to climb on in to the D. So I built myself a set of the pvc door bars. Threw in some radioactive signs (back-painted lexan) just for good measure.

this guy, but your radioactive sign is upside down.

The kid was probably 14 or so...I was totally amazed. I'm just lucky he didn't have something sharp in his back pocket that would've ripped the apholstery...

Car shows are actually really a lot of fun. Most of the car shows I do donate the entry fees to Local Organizations, Churches, etc. The most recent one I participated in was strictly British Cars, and all the proceeds went to helping build a local bird wildlife preserve. It really just depends, although I am getting very tired of the same Hot Rod shows that are ampule around the Fresno Area.

And you would have had a convenient 1/2" bar with which to make your point
