Transamerican Auto Parts and Bass Pro Shops to Build Ultimate Sportsman Toyota Tundra at 2016 SEMA Show
Compton, California (PRWEB) October 18, 2016 -- Transamerican Auto Parts (TAP), in conjunction with Bass Pro Shops, a leading national retailer of outdoor gear and apparel, will be building “The Ultimate Sportsman Toyota Tundra” on-site at the 2016 SEMA show in Las Vegas, Nevada. The “live” build to be featured at booth #62112 within the SEMA SCORE Baja 1000 Experience Area (located outside of the South Hall in the Silver Lot) will be one of the featured SEMA activities for Transamerican, the industry leader in the manufacturing and distribution of aftermarket parts and accessories for trucks, Jeeps, SUVs and four wheel drive vehicles. Drawing the industry’s brightest minds and hottest products to the Las Vegas Convention Center November 1-4, the SEMA Show is the premier automotive specialty products trade event in the world.
The “Ultimate Sportsman Toyota Tundra” will begin life at the show as a brand new 2016 Toyota Tundra SR5 as delivered from the factory. Over the course of the four show days, the truck will be outfitted with an array of parts and accessories from leading manufacturers in an effort led by Transamerican Manufacturing Group (TMG) Director of Engineering, Ted Moncure. Headlining the recognized list of suppliers will be an extensive inventory of products from TMG product divisions, Pro Comp and Smittybilt. Additional suppliers providing accessories to enhance the project include MagnaFlow Exhaust, Rigid Industries, All-Pro Off-Road, Bedslide, AMP Research and Yeti.
The vehicle will also receive a complete interior package in addition to a full exterior visual transformation featuring the exclusive “Urban Viper” pattern from camouflage company, TrueTimber®.
“We are thrilled to be launching this collaboration with our friends at Bass Pro Shops through this exciting build live at SEMA,” said TMG President, Sean Angues. “Over the course of the week, show attendees will be treated to the transformation of an entirely stock Tundra truck into an outdoor-ready dream vehicle showcasing our industry leading products that when completed, will be thoroughly equipped to tackle the outdoors.”
During the build process, the “Ultimate Sportsman Toyota Tundra” will be outfitted with comprehensive exterior parts and accessories including the recently released Pro Comp long travel suspension system, Smittybilt front and rear bumpers, Defender rack and rooftop tent along with a Pro Comp wheel and tire package. Interior and bed accessories featured will include TrueTimber® seat covers, a Smittybilt Adventure Box and Yeti cooler.
Upon completion, the truck will become the centerpiece of a 2017 national campaign jointly promoted by TAP off-road retail division, 4 Wheel Parts and Bass Pro Shops where one lucky winner will have the opportunity to win the highly-modified outdoor adventure vehicle.
“Bass Pro Shops and 4 Wheel Parts customers share a common passion for outdoor adventure and the Ultimate Sportsman Tundra will be the definitive go-anywhere, do-anything vehicle,” said Luke Snyder, manager of partnership marketing and sponsorships at Bass Pro Shops. “We are excited to collaborate with Transamerican on this project and we look forward to sharing the Tundra in many of our activities and events throughout the upcoming year.”
