    Well guys and gals i just thought i would start the idea rolling a little early. Its time to start getting the ball rolling for someone to step up to plate on finding a source for the calendars.(1)who will have them made ,(2)where they will be made ,(3)how many will be made (4) how much will they cost (5) whos car will be in each month(12 cars will be needed)I know this is early but if we start this in sept ,we have 3 months to have this whole thing put together and have ready to purchase and mailed by Dec 1, just in time for Christmas .Just dont want last years fumble to happen this year ,cheers James

    Time to get in the batter's box, Jimmy.

    Ill tell you this much ,i would do this in a heart beat ,but the cost of doing this in Canada will be way higher than the U.S and the shipping from here to the states is also way higher ,i know i buy thousands of dollars of stuff a year off ebay ,it is way cheaper to ship from the U.S to here than from here to the U.S and this will only be cost effective in large number 50 or more and cheap shipping .Im in for two

    Ok guys and gals ,i just talked to my better half Bev , she said Jimmy you are a mover and shaker ,so try . I will get on it tomorrow to find a price for a min of 100 calanders ,the photos of each car would be sent to the printing company via DIGITAL PHOTO. I will also find a estamate price to ship this calander to the lower 48 states . Hey if i could arrange the aluminum rads to be made for us, i can do this to . I still think one of you American brothers should do the same and lets compare prices for the best deal for all. cheers James P.S i will ask that all Canadian and American holiday be put on this calendar.

    custom 2009 Maverick calendars

    Ok, i phoned around to 3 different printing shops that will do custom calendars and its a liitle more cost to put both Canadas holidays and U.S holidays on it . The minimum cost would be for 100 calendars with 13 pics of Mavs ,(1) cover pic and 12 pic for the months plus layout and graphics (putting all the holidays on )around 18.00 to 20.00 a calendar based on a min order of 100. The 13 photos would be sent to printer via digital photo of each car along with model year and owners name . Ive done my part now the ball is in the forums court . cheers James ( i hope that was fast enough )
