Andy (small) has just had a good idea depending on interest.

Shall we produce a Haynes Roadster calendar for 2010 based on cars currently IVA'd and on the road, 8 on the road + 4 others almost finished. Start January 2010 for build no. 1 (Chris) February no2 (Slimtater) and so on. The calendar will be similar to the CKC calendar with a page per month with a full pic of each car on the top with builders name. Also included can be important event days highlighted as and when.
I'm friendly with a local printers so should get a decent price (not sure what though) and put them on the saturn stores at cost + postage. Happy to blank out reg no's no problem. If we can get pics quick enough (couple of days) we can get them out for the end of December.
What do you all think? Once set up we can do this yearly.
If you are up for it e-mail some pics and we shall take that as permission to use pictures, andrew@saturnsportscars.co.uk

Cheers Andy and Andy

Sounds like a cool idea to me :cool:

How's about a few scantily clad ladies drapped across the bonnets, that's sure to bolster interest ;) :D

If you can't find any suitable models..............I am available :eek:

thats a bloody good idea John :cool:

first tip would be to not look at Ash,s naked car picture :eek: :D

seriously tho, thats a great idea, sort of
"tricks of the build" sort of thing.

all we need now is pictures and permission from the owners of the completed cars......bump bump:)

cheers

In what form do you want the pic's
And when do you want them?

I haven't got much in the way of finished car pic's
But may have some usable ones whilst out driving

This type of thing.

Hi David,

to be honest we just need pics that you would like to see on the calendar, its your car , & whatever pics you think show it off at its best,
email them to spud on the email addy at beginning of this thread,
maybe send a couple & we,ll pick one for the calendar.

With the amount of Roadsters currently now being built, this calendar could be a yearly thing showing newly completed cars, nice for the forum to see & a keepsake for the owners of the cars featured.

another Eureka moment of mine maybe :rolleyes: :D :D

cheers

Dave,

Just going to be a photography geek for a moment!

Your picture is technically very good due to the car leading the viewers eye from left to right and a 20° angle is perfect to.

Composition lesson over, carry on.

Tis a nice picture Dave, just hope you didn't drop the camera while taking the picture and driving too fast....

1280 x 1024 jpg image would be best for the calender, nice hi res picture. Something that shows off the car nice.

We'll need the pics by Monday and i shall go and see the printers.

Cheers...Andy
