Ed’s done a fantastic job doing calendars the past couple of years and I still have mine (this years is still in use). So can we talk Ed into doing a 2014 calendar? I sure hope we can. So to start it off, Sir Ed, I’ll take two orders please. And I might even send in a couple of photos of Moneypenny in work for you to decide on. What say ye Ed?

“Old Topic New Thread” was not going to help anyone find a thread about a calendar for next year.Paul Mossberg

Paul. That’s cool. I wasn’t imaginative enough to figure how to roll that topic to the forefront.

"Drive Happy"Guys, I was hoping someone else might take it on this year. But whoever ends up doing the thing, everyone on site ought to start weeding through your pics looking for likely shots. More pixels is better. And think about background. And think about maybe something other than the standard 3/4 shot from standing height. Different angles, closeup on a detail.
Action shots. Action shots.Put them in a spacial file on your hard drive & we’ll see who to send them to.Sounds like a plan.

"If one thing matters, everything matters" - from the book The ShackI will buy one for 2014. The current one graces my office at home next to the oak rolled-top desk, with a Franklin Mint MG TD in a display case on top.
Well, I’ve not seen any photos from anyone as of yet. Are we sending them to someone else this year?
I believe you took my submission in VA.

"Drive Happy"Ed,
My two emails to edwardericsonjr at google dot com were rejected.
I thought you had a gmail address?

"Drive Happy"Thanks to contributors so far.
More more more!So far, every year I’ve had to scrimp and steal to get 13 big-enough photos without over-featuring my own car and maybe a couple others. The goal is at least 12 different cars and 12 different settings. It is harder than it seems.Thanks to John, Bill and Paul for recent submissions. Several of those should work well.Remember too, all y’all: photos of the car in motion, with you (or someone) in it, are gold.Also potential gold: detail shots, and pictures from the shop. I’d like to make these calendars reflect the whole world of TD replicas, from the picnic by the lake to the front beam r&r.Keep ’em coming.Draft. Several of you (and you know who you are) have responded with splendidly splendid pics over the past week or so. But still: many repeats of setting and subject.
Those who have not contributed (and even those who have): please step in with more photos of your (and others’) cars in action and at rest.My pics so far:cover:

"Drive Happy"Looks great Ed.
How about “2014 MG TDr Calendar” instead of “MGs”
Roy coined the phrase. I like the “TDr” concept.

"Drive Happy"Ed. You don’t like Flamingos? I kinda like Bill showing that you’re #1! I have a few of my build but they’re not large enough.

"If one thing matters, everything matters" - from the book The ShackKeep ’em coming, gents. I will have to go through my own archive on this site and delete a bunch of pics–I hit my 100 mb limit yesterday–then I’ll post a few more contenders. There will be changes:
1. Bill’s finger shot might be too small. I’ve got the same pic just before the finger came out & might dub that in.2. Bill sent a real nice shot of Paul behind the wheel of his car, driving on the road wearing what looks like a Cossock’s hat.3. I have a good shot of Gabor’s interior. That car absolutely needs its own month.Will advise.Hey Ed,
I have quite a few shots from the Va Beach show…I can put them on an SD card and mail the card to you. They may just be duplicates of what you already have, but if you are interested, send me an email with your address.Jack(by the way, pics of my BCW extended back end are in my camera and Ijust have to work on getting them from the camera to the computer to the site…hopefully later today.)
