I take the V1, soo glad you put several pics of mine (month pic on July and several day pics on February).

How to buy ?

 

Great work as always, thanks Ellis !

Hi mate - you'll need to contact Mark Blythe either on here or via the FB page for the club - he's printing and posting out both versions.

OK guys - as promised, there are now 2 versions of the 2024 Calendar available (order from Mr Mark Blythe either on here or via the FB page). Here are the pages from Version 2 - there are several changes on this version to give everybody a bite of the cherry.

So . . . there was a call to get some calendars done ready for the Classic Motor Show at the NEC this week and that has meant powering on and getting the artwork done well before my initial deadline. A Calendar V2.0 will be produced after the show to allow others' pics to be included. But for now, V1.0 is at print as I type! Some amazing submissions this year - some beautiful cars out there and lots more submissions from outside the UK which was awesome!

Feast your eyes over the pages - everybody who sent pics in before today got in!

Sale post will go up in due course but if you're off to the NEC grab a copy of V1.0 from the club stand.

Awesome! I assume you even do the fade like the OEM ones? How can I purchase? I'm not in a rush. The car is gone for two weeks. 

Send me an email to [email protected] and we can sort cost and style etc

Hi mate - yes can do the fade - anything you like really - can be totally bespoke! The safest thing to do ius for me to supply you the artwork that you take to a local vinyl place near you to get produced - that way there's no danger of vinyls getting bent, twisted or creased in the post, which happens!

2024 Calendar - Call for Entries

OK folks, it's that time of year again.

Between Blythmark and myself (thanks Mark for stepping up once more) you'll be able to place orders for your 2024 Forum Calendar very soon.

However, we need content, good content.

Same rules as have always applied apply once more - this is about showcasing the diversity and passion we have for the Supra and then lobbing a load of luscious pics in a calendar. There will be no bias towards 2000bhp builds, 'stock' cars or mates' cars - this is about ALL Supras of all colours, power and state - even NAs - afterall they're all worth £1M these days!

So if you have a pic (or pics) of your car that you'd like to be considered for inclusion this is what you have to consider:

Quality and resolution - most years a few pics (not many thankfully) were dismissed because they were too small (resolution) and just not quite good enough in terms of quality of pic (Google Jazz1 car pics for examples!). This was sad as some of the cars that were excluded because of this were great cars - don't fall into that trap.

So if you submit entries make sure you follow these 4 simple rules.

THE RULES!

1. Pics should be of a high resolution (300dpi and physcially large in terms of size) if possible - in this case size does matter

2. Pics should be of a decent quality - this is not subjective, this is blatantly obvious!

3. Email them, don't post them on here - please - I need one source to collate these from.

4. If you have a specific month you'd like the car to feature in (your birthday perhaps, an anniversary or a special memory of a friend etc) then let me know on the email, not on here. I'll endeavour to do all I can to make it happen as long as 1 and 2 above have been adhered to and there's space etc - can't make promises but I'll do my best

Email me your pics (or WeTransfer, MailBigFile etc if they're mahoosive) to:

[email protected]

Deadline is Sunday 12th November due to print scheduling.

Late entries will not be included as these need to go to print asap.

Much better now the ghastly wings gone but other than the new colours which I guess are a wrap and powder coated wheels has anything else been done ?

Looks like the headlights need at least a freshen up and i'd have painted the door handles too

New facelift headlights on the way as are white door handles but you're right - we've done f*ck all!!!!

Collecting the 'Goblin' Supra later today - excited to get it on the Club Stand!

What a great trip

I'll be there late as it's my lad's birthday today so apparently I have to be here!

Almost time!

You're a star; thanks mate.

No worries - looks like they have a site issue - most pages are showing errors or images not loading.

Have sent them an email so will see if anybody picks it up over the weekend.

Cheers Ellis but I can't get the link to work. All I get is page not found.

Perhaps it'll go live when the stuff is good-to-go.

Any thoughts sir?

That's interesting - down for me too. Will send the company an email

Guys, have these all been produced and distributed?

I'd be interested in some stuff but have only just revisited the forum - sorry!

Cheers All,

Due to your negativity and bad attitude, i decided not to waste my time as it wouldnt have made any difference. I did start a design, which ill attach for anyone thats interested.

Oh, did the negative comment affect your creative spirit? Doesn't feel good does it.
