Dressing up a 40 for Christmas

[mdsims]

My town does a light parade every November. After much suggestion by the wife, I’ve finally decided to enter, and dress the soft top 43 up for Christmas. Crew will be me, the wife and kids, it’s all low speed driving through our local downtown.

I figured just a ton of Christmas lights across the top, bumper, etc. Today my wife said I should try and dress up the whole rig as Santa, it’s a freeborn red cruiser.

Anyway, show me your Christmas decorated 40s, an dang ideas you might have for me. I have 30 days to figure this out.

My niece bought her mom clip in the window reindeer antlers for her mom's Sequoia , really helps find the rig in the big box store mall parking lot. In Feb I sewed pull over "socks" for them with white and pink fabric, converting them to bunny ears for Easter. She got lots comments in the parking lots about how unique they were.

If I were you … I would go full polar express on the parade … not mine… I don’t think anybody would admit to owning it… but… this is the way you should go

Think how happy the kids would be seeing it

This IS the way

A 4ft dia Santa Hat would look cool, pvc frame, some felt, some lights, like 6 ft tall up on the hardtop. all lit from inside.

Wrap it up and put a bow on it.
