Get Involved
Vehicle Showcase
Built something worth showing? Bring it to Barnwell Mountain and put it in front of the community that gets it. Trail rigs, overlanders, restorations, DIY builds — all Toyotas welcome.
What Is It?
Your Build.
Center Stage.
The Toyota Jamboree Vehicle Showcase is a dedicated display area where builders and owners can exhibit their rigs to the entire Jamboree community. It's not a competition — it's a celebration of the builds, the creativity, and the effort that goes into making a Toyota truly your own.
Whether you've spent years on a frame-off restoration, built out the ultimate expedition rig, or fabbed your own custom solution to a trail problem — the showcase is where you get to share the story behind it.
Showcase vehicles are parked in a prime location throughout the event, visible to all attendees. You're there with your rig, answering questions and connecting with people who share your obsession.
What Qualifies
All Builds Welcome
If it's a Toyota and you built it, modified it, or brought it back to life — it belongs here. Here are some of the build types we love to see.
Trail Rigs
Heavily modified, purpose-built rock crawlers and extreme off-road machines. The kind of build that turns heads at the trailhead.
Overland Builds
Self-sufficient adventure rigs built for long-haul travel. Roof tents, drawers, water systems, overlanding gear — show off what you've built for life on the road.
DIY & Custom Builds
Garage-built one-offs, creative fabrication, unique solutions. If you drew it up yourself and built it with your hands, we want to see it.
Restorations
Meticulously restored classics and vintage Toyota trucks, SUVs, and Land Cruisers brought back to life. Old iron deserves to be seen.
Lifted & Modified Daily Drivers
Tastefully built daily drivers that still get used — lifted, armored, and kitted out. You don't have to be extreme to be impressive.
Work in Progress
Mid-build and proud of it. Got a project that's coming together? The community loves seeing where a build is headed just as much as the finished product.
