Just an idea, anyone ever thought of collecting images of members rides / events and making a calendar? Could be state by state, whole of OZ or both. Could even chuck in a Japan section, some nice pic's in the Japan section... could even put some cars in also:D? It could be a good way to raise funds for the forum or independent state clubs.

I am the purchasing officer for my company (inventories), we have a multi-milion account with one of the largest printing companies in Australia and could get some very high quality work done for not to much $ - this option would also require a largish print run (at least 250 units, not worth it otherwise... the more the better) If people are keen I will front the purchase price and send out orders. Other options can also be explored.

If off-set is not going to be an option (numbers) I also have multiple digital contacts that could produce a good quality (not as good as off-set) product in small numbers 1 - 100.

Someone would obviosly need to do the artwork... seems we have some talented hands in SAU. What do you think?

It is interesting that this thread has come up, i have been toying with the idea for a week or so now, and have come up with a few things.

If anyone is willing to do this ill help as much as i can.

Funky mabe you could assist?¿?

Anyway here are my ideas, im not sure if i should have a car pic behind the dates or just on the top half, or both.

let me know what you think.

James.

James...

Your artwork is great.

It seems that this "idea" may become a reality.

Funky, would you be willing to spread the word on this one (states input if they are interested) and discuss with your SAU peers any red tape that may be encountered with this project + if SAU will offically support this project. Not so much financially if they don't want to... but some revenue will obviously go toward the clubs, forum if it is successful. I have stated in original post I will finance project if enough ppl are interested.

More artwork and concepts required!

Would be good if each state could produce a calendar to get more members rides on paper. It would turn into quite a catfight if only one calendar was produced (mines better, bigger, faster, i got more rice etc...)

I would think a poll submitted by members on who's ride should be included would be the way to go. If it's an annual thing it could be quite a prestigious placement between the SAU community and inspire ppls to get there ride looking good, going fast... whatever tickles your fancy.

Anyway enough from me... lets see what can be nutted out over the next few months.

FUNKY... with your and SAU's permission of course:D

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
