Milestone Turbo Buick Calendar Info

tjthorson · 02-05-2001, 10:51 AM

As promised - it is the end of January and I will begin the process of putting together a Milestone Turbo Buick 18 month calendar. (July 2001 - December 2002) I will NOT be taking orders for calendars until after the printing has begun, but rest assured I will have no problem making enough for everyone. I will be taking what I learned on the 2001 Turbo Regal Calendar and be expanding that onto this calendar. Please carefully read the rules below BEFORE submitting any pictures to me.
1) Pictures must be at least 640x480 resolution and 16.7 million colors.
2) Picture should depict the car in a nice way with scenery. People,
other cars, tow trucks, 1/2 a car, etc in the picture cannot be used.
3) Calendar is limited to "Milestone" Turbo Buick powered vehicles. (Such as - 76 Turbo Regal, 78-80 Turbo Regal, 80ish Turbo Monte, 84-87 GN, 87 WE4, 87GNX, 82 GN, 84-87 WH1, 89 TTA, etc. I know there are more - send them in!)
4) Picture submitted must be of your car or have owners permission to submit it. Use the form below to submit pictures. Incomplete forms will be rejected.

Picture submission form:
Submitters Name:
Owners Name:
HomeTown,State (optional, but nice to include it)
Production Numbers if known
Modifications if any:
Track Times if any:
Kudos (who worked on car, family, etc.)

attach picture in .bmp, .jpg, .tif, etc. Something I can use Paint Shop Pro on, please...

Mail pictures to: todd@toddware.com

The submission period will last 3 weeks to a month (about March 1).
After March 1, I will put up a website with all the pictures and open up the voting. The voting is done by email on the honor system. Votes will be done by email, people will pick their 10 favorites. Please only vote once Chicagoans - and to those in Florida... well you know.

After the voting is complete (about 3 weeks or so), the top 18 voted will be put in the calendar. I reserve the right to make any changes at any time. I want to assure everyone that EVERY Turbo Buick car will be represented in at least 1 month (based on entries of course...)! So, send in those pictures! Go out and take them, borrow a camera, scanner, etc. I'll keep you all up to date with the progress!

Calendars when put up for sale will be $29 shipped anywhere in the US.
Contact me after April for shipping outside the US. Oh - almost forgot
- the top 3 voted pictures (owners) get free calendars!

Thanks for the support and questions - get those pictures rolling!
