Wesley J. Allen Embarks on a Bold Pan-American Journey with Talking Billboards

Wesley J. Allen announces a unique advertising campaign, combining innovation and adventure, with his “Talking Billboards” project traveling across 14 nations.

United States, January 13, 2025Introducing Talking Billboards: A New Frontier for Advertising

Wesley J. Allen, a self-described “ten-talent man” and accomplished craftsman, author, and adventurer, has announced an extraordinary cross-continental campaign featuring his innovative “Talking Billboards.” This unprecedented venture will take a 1952 Chrysler New Yorker and a custom-built trailer supporting digital billboards on a six-month, 38,000-mile journey along the Pan-American Highway, spanning 14 countries. The campaign promises to redefine advertising while capturing the spirit of adventure.

The “Talking Billboards” concept leverages digital technology to display advertisements, complete with text and voice narration, ensuring maximum engagement. Advertisers will have their messages seen by thousands of people in real-time as the vehicle makes its way from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, to Ushuaia, Argentina, crossing the infamous Darien Gap twice.

A 1952 Chrysler and the Road to Adventure

At the heart of this campaign is Allen’s meticulously restored 1952 Chrysler New Yorker, a testament to his mechanical skills and creative vision. Described as a spectacle on wheels, the car pulls a digital billboard trailer designed to captivate audiences.

Allen explains, “The billboard will slow down its text, ensuring that drivers and pedestrians alike have time to read and absorb the ads. And with the Chrysler leading the way, people won’t be able to ignore this phenomenal display of creativity and purpose.”

The campaign’s journey begins in New Mexico and traverses the west coast, passing through California, Mexico, Central America, and South America before heading north to Alaska and completing the circuit back in New Mexico.

Crossing the Darien Gap: The Adventure of a Lifetime

One of the journey’s highlights is crossing the treacherous Darien Gap, a stretch of dense jungle between Panama and Colombia notorious for its challenges. Allen will tackle this feat twice, showcasing his adventurous spirit and determination.

“This will be the greatest adventure of my life,” Allen shares. “I am active, healthy, and ready to share my talents with the world.”

A Call to Advertisers: Be Part of the Journey

Allen is inviting advertisers, businesses, and sponsors to join him on this groundbreaking venture. Digital ad placements on the Talking Billboards will provide unparalleled exposure across two continents. The campaign aims to showcase books, services, and products in a way that far exceeds the reach of traditional online or stationary billboard advertising.

Allen is also launching a fundraiser featuring limited-edition t-shirts priced at $34.99, emblazoned with the tagline, “I helped people cross the Darien Gap.” Sponsors contributing $1,000 or more will receive complimentary t-shirts and premium advertising spots on the billboards.

A Life of Creativity and Ingenuity

From building dune buggies in his youth to restoring vintage cars, Wesley J. Allen has spent a lifetime embracing innovation and adventure. At age 69, he continues to push boundaries, fueled by a deep desire to share his talents and inspire others.

A published author with numerous books to his name, Allen’s creative projects include a wide array of writings available on his websites. His storytelling prowess is matched only by his hands-on ingenuity.

Reflecting on his life, Allen says, “I’ve always been driven by the desire to create and explore. My life is not over yet. This journey is my way of showing the world that adventure is for everyone.”

The Talking Billboards journey is set to launch on May 1. Those interested in advertising or supporting the campaign are encouraged to visit Allen’s websites for more details:
