OK, guys. I have a total of 10 pictures right now, including near-duplicates. At most it’s half a calendar.
I will be needing more big pictures of different members TDs.
Remember, these can be anything from cars under construction to cars under power. Close-ups of details, different weather situations, motion, loved ones–whatever!
Bill: I would much prefer the photo you posted above to the one I took of you on the way out of VA Beach last week. Please to email me the biggest file you have. edwardericsonjr gmail.com
looking forward to a couple more artistic donations. We’ve not got a huge amount of time to get this done.
Ed, you are likely looking for some shots that are just a bit different from all the beautiful posed 3/4 view of our TDrs.
I do think that “your” road trip caravan to parts unknown (aka Pungo) is worth a shot. Especially considering the total considerable mileage traveled by all who attended.How about a collage of the internals of a major engine repair, or of getting rid of the leaves (without a rake), or what your head looks like without retorquing, or a picture of the Iron Ass contest winner, can you bench seaters really reach your emergency brake lever, so you really like wire wheels? Does one of us have a good “diamond in the rough” shot? Perhaps you could dedicate January to “new members” – only shots of those who joined in 2012.It’s probably too late this year, but we could have a “wet dashboard” contest with a picture before and after “enhancement”. 😉 The dashboard is one of the areas of our TDs that differs the most from car to car due to owner customization. Of course, wheels seem to get a lot of attention also (I’m convinced my wires are the only reason I got a trophy at the Air and Auto show.)Maybe this is all a day late and a dollar short…..or as they used to say in Brooklyn “wait til next year”. Just trying to help, not make extra work for you.Ed, Do you have a still shot of Bill’s door coming open? That’d be a cool pic! lol. Perhaps a photo from the ice cream run at Carlisle. I’m in for the calendar and trust your editorial talents. Any thought of including one or two in the building/repair stages? Not totally disassembled like mine but something like doing maintenance.

"If one thing matters, everything matters" - from the book The ShackAll good ideas, Allen. I’d also love to get a shot of one under construction.
And Roy–also great ideas, especially the dashboard one. I actually have quite a few shots of my car, Bill’s car, Shubie’s car and yours. Paul sent a nice one of his in setting too, and there are a few others. I’m hoping for a few more pics of a few different members’ cars–would like to see at least 12 different cars in the calendar.
draft.
I could still use a few more contenders if anyone wants to send. Some of these are old shots & I may have used one or two of them before…

Ed, what would you think of putting the members TDr “handle” in the bottom right? It wouldn’t bother me if you put a caption on each month a la Ericson. (I had to look hooning up.)
Kudos Ed.
Thanks again for taking this project on!

OK, new April, June–though I think the June shot is going to be a bit rough when blown up full size.
Keep ’em coming
Ordered it. Reprints might be available here.

Please see if it works for you & let me know if there’s trouble. As I recall, there is usually trouble until I figure out how to share this link.
Couldn’t figure out how to get a reprint of that calendar. There’s nothing on their pages directing me to get a print of a calendar that was already created. I’ll keep checking.
OK, I emailed the BigHugeLabs dude just like last year. For sure he’ll send us a link, but a word on his contact page says they’re on vacation until Dec 3 or so. Which means we’ll be seeing a reply email with a link maybe next week.
Sorry for the delay.
OK, try this one:

Works like a charm.
Thanks, Ed, for all your hard work.Bill Ascheman
