We made it back to Lubbock at a reasonable hour and I was back at the store Saturday afternoon.” JD Glassworks is a longtime Top KICKER dealer and specializes in ultra custom work in the Lubbock marketplace.

Concluding Morrell related “The KICKER AMA Arenacross series got off to a great start in Albany followed by successful events in Loveland, Prescott, Guthrie with 2 events, Reno and Denver before Hobbs. Next up is Amarillo on March 3rd. Each event added excitement to the 2023 Series and showcased that KICKER is Livin’Loud.”

TULSA, OK (02.23.22) – The 59th Darryl Starbird National Rod and Custom Car Show filled the Tulsa Expo Square February 16th thru 19th. Car Toys Tulsa, the Trophy Sponsor, took a large 20′ x 40′ booth up front to highlight custom demo vehicles and products.
The Trophy Sponsorship included a custom plaque that will be featured in the store.
Charles Stewart, Car Toys owner, stated “Car Toys has been exhibiting at the Darryl Starbird show for years. On Saturday alone the attendance was reported to have topped 20,000. Total attendance topped 35,000 for the show’s run. There were other shows happening at the fairgrounds and a friend told me it took him over 30 to find a place to park. Our booth, as the Trophy Sponsor, was right up front so attendees checked us out when they entered and were leaving the event. Also as a sponsor we received a lot of play over the PA system during the show”.
The Car Toys Tulsa booth at the Starbird Show was in a prime spot by the entrance.
Car Toys Tulsa also received visibility on the heavy local radio and TV news coverage schedule that aired in the Tulsa area.
A special demo vehicle in the booth was Mark Adams’ Prius that was an entry in a recent Sony ES Build contest. Car Toys Tulsa did the extreme custom installation and the Car Toys Tulsa entry finished in the Top 10 entries from across the U.S.
The Mark Adams’ Prius placed in the Top 10 in a National Sony Installation contest. Car Toys Tulsa did the extreme custom installation.
The Car Toys Tulsa pick up and motorcycle demos, both loaded with Rockford Fosgate kept attendees in the booth experiencing the amazing systems.
Stewart added “Mark was in the booth all day each day of the show. During the event he did well over 100 demos for event attendees. Our loaded pickup and motorcycle in the booth also kept show goers in our booth to experience the maxed out Rockford Fosgate systems in those demos.”
Charles Stewart holds one of the hundreds of custom koozies they passed out at the event.
Concluding Stewart added “We got a ton of exposure for Car Toys plus a large number of very positive leads and scheduled appointment in the store. Five members of the Car Toys staff rotated in the booth during the show and really pitched in. We had the store open too so our staff members had a lot to handle. On Sunday everyone was in the booth and did great job as we finished the event and moved out. We definitely look forward to the 2024 Starbird show.”
A big 12volt News hat’s off to Car Toys Tulsa for participating at a major consumer event.

TULSA, OK (02.21.23) – Code Zero Customs had a major presence at the recent Starbird Show in Tulsa. The event, the 59th Annual, was held in the Tulsa Expo Center February 16th-19th. This was the 7th year for Code Zero Customs to exhibit and the company’s 6th year to be an event sponsor.

Code Zero Customs rolled into the Tulsa Expo Center on Wednesday to begin setup.
The upfront booth was packed with specials.
Cody Landis, Code Zero Customs owner, related “Being on site up front with a 20 x 40 booth at the Starbird Show is always a real branding opportunity for our company. Attendees are serious automotive aftermarket enthusiasts and it’s a great way to showcase our brand, products and work to the right audience. JL Audio, Memphis Audio and Pioneer were brands we spotlighted. Our Code Zero Customs apparel also grabbed attention.”
The Code Zero Customs apparel was another way for the company to continue branding after the event.
Code Zero Customs had 2 vehicles in the booth and both received show awards. Alyanna Baker’s 2018 Toyota Tundra was loaded with JL Audio 12W7 subs plus JL Audio amplifiers. Alyanna is 16 yeas old and races Polaris sidexsides. The other vehicle was a stunning ’47 Chevy pickup that belongs to a Code Zero Customs customer.

The award winning ‘47 Chevy pickup was a show stopper in the Code Zero Customs booth.
“Showing 2 great project vehicles in the booth really let attendees see our custom work. Bob, Jenni and I stayed busy throughout the event. I totaled up over $75,000 in jobs we quoted” Landis added.
“At the Starbird shows our goal is to put our brand in front of the right crowd. Every year we quote packages to members of the crowd and that turns into business at our store. This event was definitely one of the busiest. We look forward to the 2024 Starbird Show” Landis concluded.
PITTSBURGH, PA (02.20.23) – The Pittsburgh International Auto Show was back at the David L Lawrence Convention Center in downtown Pittsburgh February 17th thru 20th. The 4-Day show brought exciting new vehicles, displays, products and fun for the whole family. In all the show featured 21 makes and models of vehicles from around the world.
Team Nutz, proactive 12volt and automotive aftermarket retailer, was once again on site. This year, the Team Nutz occupied a 6,500 square foot booth in the Convention Center. Team Nutz has been exhibiting at the Pittsburg Auto Show for over 15 years. During the show at times there were more than a dozen members of the Team Nutz crew engaged with show attendees in meaningful one-on-one conversations and demonstrations.
The David L. Lawrence Convention Center located by the river in downtown Pittsburgh.
For Team Nutz Ed Nuttall stated “Our booth was filled with demo vehicles, a big selection of wheels, OEM Display, a Marine display, a wide variety of product displays plus live installations of vehicle wraps, bed liner jobs, paint protection polishing, window tinting, leather Katzkin seat installations and DSP audio demos. One of the wrap demos projects was a full wrap of our new 24’ Team Nutz Trailer. With bed liner we are actually coating the bodies of pickups and cars.”
The aisles were packed with many attendees seeing all Team Nutz offers for consumers to add to their rides.
Attendees checking out custom installations in cars and motorcycles.
Nuttall continued “Standouts for demo vehicles was the International All Ways Safe truck loaded with Memphis Audio that debuted at SEMA 2021. Our Auto Magic delivery truck also helped get the word out about all our car care products. Motorcycle and powersports displays also grabbed eyeballs and having the high school students attend on Friday morning was a great opportunity to connect with younger consumers. During the event a crew from the local CBS station was on site at the show and showed a clip of them in our booth checking out paint protection on a demo car. That will turn into more great visibility.”
Car care products is a growing category and Team Nutz is in that marketplace with Audio Magic.
Team Nutz had a show offer to deliver an Auto Magic purchase to the buyer’s car.
“With the large crowd at the event over the 4 days I know we had probably more than 5000 direct conversations with attendees. We also passed out a ton of lanyards, stickers and koozies. We had 2500 business cards and ran out. With all that interaction we anticipate a considerable amount of business from the event. We definitely look forward to being back at the Pittsburg International Auto Show in 2024” Nuttall concluded.
