Default The free 2010 301 Garage calendar has been released...

Merry Christmas to all...

A lot of you know me from some of my original postings on
TAC a few years ago.

I'm that guy that put up a resource (forum) for the Pontiac
301 engine.

Anyway, our subset of this great hobby continues to demonstrate
a good deal of pride in our cars.

So, for fun mostly, we have done a second calendar featuring
you guessed it, 301 powered machines.

We do not wish to in any way diminish the current quite excellent
commercial calendar. Nor would we want to hamper sales. In fact,
we do NOT even offer a printed version.

The following link provides anyone that would like a copy, in
PDF format, our 2010 calendar. It's totally free and may be
freely copied and distributed.

http://www.80transampacecar.com/site...endar_2010.pdf

This effort was all hobbyists and again for fun.

I would also like to point out a rather talented young man,
Steve or "dgtldesigner" as he's known on forums as the principal
artistic genius in making this happen. I think our hobby is going
to see some really stunning things from this young man.

So, if you have a need for a second calendar or just want to
see what we're up to, please enjoy...

Thanks again Steve!

Joe

Not bad. I think it would be more appealing if the pictures of some of the cars weren't chopped off.

Default Calendar resolution

Ah... none are chopped off.

You need to go full screen or buy a bigger monitor I think...

monitor size isn't the issue
Jan- lower picture chopped off
Feb- front low beam chopped off
Apr- drivers side rear chopped off
May- passenger side rear chopped off
Jul- left rear taillight chopped off
Oct- squeezed, driver side rear sliced


Otherwise nice effort and a slick production.
I appreciate your site.

Something weird going on here. If I left click on the car for April you see the border for the picture extended. Not the car, just the border. But then when I right click and copy and paste to PAINT, I see the whole car. Might be the same for the other pics too.

Just bring it up in Acrobat Reader and Print on "Letter Size" paper, not too difficult if you ask me.

We had no submits from 301 powered Grand Prix's, you can submit it for next year if you like.
