    Anyone want to do a 2013 TD Replica Calendar? Feedback on last year’s
    was pretty decent. I’m willing to do it again or, if someone else wants
    to take over, I’ll step aside.

    To get everyone thinking about it, here’s a great thread over at the MG Experience forum. Lots of shots of “Calendar rejects,” and some talk about their charm.

    I’d loved the last two calendars. I’ll pay for one again this year.

    Paul, I agree that the “old Texaco” 

    shot was something special.

    OK, boys. Send me your pictures. Remember: phone shots are too small. Need decent sized files to print big with enough detail for the calendar. With your permission I’ll do the same thing as last year–mock one up and post it for comment, then do whatever I decide.

    Last chance for someone to steal the project from me and hog all the glory!

    The glory can be all yours.

    Here’s a shot from the Pumpkin run I cropped for possible calendar use. If only that white pickup wasn’t there in the background–or better yet, if only it was an early ’50s GMC . . .

    Make it look a bit old…olde

    Yah, me too. Karen took that one. You can tell because I’m in it. One of the things I like most about the shot is that both people pictured are wearing WWII leather pilot’s helmets. But for the dang pickup truck you could almost think the pic was taken in 1955, maybe lining up for the start of a race.

    Couple hood numbers…some tape on the headlights…we’d be there.

    Funny.  My TD was bracketed by two Spyders. The TD looks huge in comparison!

    Ed, Do you still have the 2-wheels-in-the-air “Safety Fast” shot that I took last year?  I had it blown up to a 20×30 poster that hangs in my garage.  I’ve never had a photo that got so many comments (questions).

    @edsnova

    Yes I do, Roy. You want it in? Cause 2013 might be its lucky year.

    Maybe inset that old two-wheel TD shot Mossberg found….

    Ed, It would be nice if we could “vote” on which 12 pictures go in the calendar.  But this may be one of the best examples of when a democracy is simply not efficient enough to get the job done before the cart over-runs the horse.  So, I will recuse myself on this one.

    I’ll mock it up and put it here for discussion. But right, it’s to be a benevolent (I hope and intend) dictatorship. 🙂

    @billnparts

    I am attempting to post another photo for your consideration, but all that shows in the reply box is the location of the photo.

    I are confused.
