Darksider 'Club' Plaque
 
I guess a plaque is a integral part of a car, so this would seem to be the place for the thread (apologies, if it isn't). But anyone ever consider an order/run of yet to be conceived or designed Darksider plaques?:

fin-heads
 
I would be interested in some thing like the "Fin-heads" type and size for the old cat, I would like something for the interior of the car? I'm on board, but not much of a designer. Any ideas????????????:usa2:

Keith Vrabec 10-16-2010 01:29 PM

Gotta be an 8 lug....That would be a cool one

66bonne 10-16-2010 03:35 PM

Great idea !! Sign me up.

Stu Norman 10-18-2010 12:15 PM

Plaque or buckle?
 
:)Sound's good to me too. Any chance to do a buckle with maybe an 8 lug?:cool:

Engine-Ear 10-19-2010 09:37 AM

I will talk to UPC-WU2 (Bill) and the Obrien Truckers folks today and see what a plaque would cost. Remember, the more there are ordered, the lower the per-unit price.

BigAquaBonney 10-19-2010 09:39 AM

Go this in an email from Obrien yesterday (I'll try to upload the sample):
Thank you for your interest in getting car club plaques made by O'Brien Truckers. We have made over 103,000 plaques for 3000+ clubs all over the world and I'm sure we can make ones for your club too.
For the standard 5" x 9" rectangular plaque, our minimum is just 10 plaques and there is a one time set-up charge of $100. The price for 10 to 24 plaques is $25 each + $10 shipping, for 25 to 49 it's $20 each + $15 shipping, and for 50+ $16.00 each + $30 shipping. These prices are for plaques as cast, bead blasted and ready to finish. If you want them painted and belt sanded (where we paint the plaque one color and belt sand the raised surfaces leaving the paint in the recessed areas and the raised surfaces with a satin finish) that will be $5.00 each extra. The lead time is 6-8 weeks from receipt of your payment.
We require a 50% deposit before we start work on your plaques and we ship your plaques COD for the balance. If you send the full payment with your order naturally you save the $10 COD charge. (offer good in 48 continental states)
We prefer to receive a camera ready black and white artwork with your order where everything that will be raised represented by black and everything recessed represented as white. We only deal in two dimensions - raised and recessed - so we need a pure black and white "line drawing". I've attached an artwork from another club so you can see what we need .
If you have any other questions please feel free to write or call.

Hey, good stuff, BAB. With the number of DS stickers and shirts that are out there, it shouldn't be any trouble to get > 50 requests.

I agree. I'd take two or three. I have zero artistic talent. It would be great if you could talk with Bill. I could help with the upfront costs, if we had enough in the way of pre-order enthusiasm.

UPC-WU2 10-19-2010 10:21 AM

Matt has contacted me. I have the Darksiders logo in a ready-to-roll format that I can supply. Or we can discuss changes.

Bill

AROWHED 10-19-2010 10:53 AM

Count me in for 1, possibly 2.

Bill, I'm thinkin of using an 8-lug hoop around Chief Pontiac's head (instead of the familiar circle). Call me later...

Helge71 10-20-2010 10:46 AM

Count me also in for 2...

Helge

66bonne 10-20-2010 01:14 PM

Matt and Bill are sure to come up with a great design.
I'll take two. Jim

GAR64 12-26-2010 04:21 PM

Hey, did the plaques ever happen?
 
Gentlemen,

Were the plaques ever made, and if so can I still get one?

Let me know :jumping:

pontiak 12-28-2010 08:07 PM

I would like a darksiders plaque or two.

Engine-Ear 12-29-2010 12:56 AM

It's still being worked on...sort of. We'll pick this back up soon...stay tuned.

pontiaclady 12-29-2010 11:11 AM

I would buy one or two also

carcrazy 12-29-2010 02:00 PM

I would be in!

65 Cat 2+2 01-03-2011 07:16 PM

Me too. Bill did a great design on the shirts, so I vote that it look as close to that as possible.

mviker 01-04-2011 01:34 PM

I'm in for two also. Just lemme know how much and who to send the dinero to.

Kevin

1967Tempest 01-17-2011 09:25 AM

Is it going to say "Darksiders" ? If so I am in as well for at least one!!

stucky2947 01-18-2011 11:37 PM

Count me in, too!

OZZIEVILLE 67 2 door 01-19-2011 12:00 AM

If I can help, let me know. I think we're all in Wisconsin. Go Packers.

It can wait until after the Super Bowl.

ANy ideas as to what it would look like? Is the moon involved?

Coach 02-10-2011 04:15 PM

I'd be interested for sure. ( I am actually wearing my Darksider Hoodie in the office today. )

I do like the idea of incorporating the 8-lug into the basic design. I think that would be tre-cool

Stu Norman 02-10-2011 11:11 PM

Packer gear has been the local office uniform this week, for some reason. :D

GT182 02-17-2011 01:08 PM

Any news on what's happing? I'll buy one too. That's if 'modified' fits in. ;)

Engine-Ear 02-17-2011 05:28 PM

I have been ultra busy the last couple weeks...I'll call Bill (UPC-WU2) this weekend to put a plan together.

1967Tempest 03-21-2011 11:05 AM

I saw a club design about "may the Torque be with you". Not sure if we could use that, but it is extremely cool looking!!

Dave

1967Tempest 05-19-2011 11:07 PM

Would it be on chains? Be kinda cool to hear it hit a speed bump.

punisher7 05-19-2011 11:35 PM

I am interested in a plaque, maybe 2. Any pictures yet?

Engine-Ear 05-20-2011 08:29 AM

Thanks for the reminder on this - I have been swamped lately and haven't gotten the artwork together... I added a post-it to my monitor (where the really hot tasks go) to work on it ASAFP (F = feasibly, BTW).

UPC-WU2 05-20-2011 09:24 AM

I'll take some blame for this dragging out as well.
Matt we gotta cross paths.

1967Tempest 08-19-2011 09:46 AM

May the Torque be With You.......

pontiak 08-19-2011 08:52 PM

And also with you!

Make it so, Number One!

hellerods 08-20-2011 12:36 AM

Any thing I could do to help speed this along guys?????? I would like to buy two before I die, one for the Catalina and one for my headstone :>) or to tape to the top of the box of ashes.......................

Teej 08-20-2011 09:11 AM

I'd buy one! I like the one '67 posted above with the "You don't know the power of the dark side." Besides, my son (who loves Star Wars and just got a Darth Vader backpack) would be thrilled. Of course that whole copyright thing might make using the Darth image an issue, but I'll put it on my car and if I run into George Lucas, I'll deal with it then.

hellerods 08-20-2011 03:12 PM

I have decided that I can't finish, or put my Cat. on the road with out one------no presure guys, just waiting, here, all by myself, alone, just waiting........................................... ......
