DT36 Posted August 27, 2019 Report Posted August 27, 2019 Might be of interest to some of you. Just had a Groupon Voucher offer on two 16x12 prints for my garage Wall. I scanned some line drawings recently, then put them through Paint 3D to give the colour of my car, plus a MK1 project I half had/have in the pipeline. Canvas prints are working out really cheap, but had to add a £iver postage at checkout. If they're any good, then I might get some engine and transmission line drawings done that I've been playing with too. Col, I also have an Anglia and Mk1 Cortina, but I've not coloured them yet. Link is below, plus the two pics of my print art I sent off. https://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/grange-print-11?utm_source=&utm_campaign=UserReferral_ma 3
Moderator Rally Pack 2000 Posted August 27, 2019 Moderator Report Posted August 27, 2019 Absolutely love those. (Except the Mk1 needs a Lotus touch not that BDA thingy everyone claims is so special) Right colour though.
Ray Posted August 27, 2019 Report Posted August 27, 2019 Haynes produced a book, i have it somewhere with a lot of theirs that were done in it, my intention was to get them photo copied, but never got round to it, will have to dig it out

Failing that, I've got a good few on my PC.
colr6 Posted August 27, 2019 Report Posted August 27, 2019 If you could do one of an Anglia and mk1 Cortina, that would be great! Let me know how much 👍

Let me know how much 👍 Send me a pic of each car through WhatsApp. I like Beef Monster Munch 😁 You'll need to upload the pics then to the Groupon voucher link to your preferred size of canvas. Was a bit finicky at first trying to upload them through my phone at lunchtime, but I got there in the end. Alternatively, you could print them to A3 and get some cheapy frames from Home bargain type shops.

Moderator Rally Pack 2000 Posted August 30, 2019 Moderator Report Posted August 30, 2019 That Mexico has a BDA in it! No wonder they cost 50 thousand quid these days!
DT36 Posted August 30, 2019 Author Report Posted August 30, 2019 My order has been processed, so just waiting on them now. I'll get some pics up and report on the quality when they arrive.

DT36 Posted September 5, 2019 Author Report Posted September 5, 2019 Right, they're back. 50/50 but slightly my own fault. I declined paying the extra £2.50 for them to best fit my upload as I thought I got them right. Mk1 is ok, but front of Mk2 is too close to the right. Still, it's only going on the garage wall and came in really cheap with the vouchers previously posted. Might possibly unpick it and move it over, if one staple comes out easy. My next mancave project this weekend is to finish off my Castrol Oil Racing Chair. Had it powder coated and just received the leather today. Pics will follow if it comes out OK. 1

Haha, they are my Betty's. Put them there to bubble wrap and stick up garage attic. She's got loads of the stuff stashed away in boxes and on the dresser. She must have at least 10 boxes of mixed ornamental plates and Clarence Cliff up her Mams (Big Betty) attic too that I have to bring down here one day that her Dad used to pick up for her. I suppose we spend our money on car parts and they spend theirs on plates to make us sandwiches on. 😁 she's a good un, aye.

DT36 Posted September 12, 2019 Author Report Posted September 12, 2019 Garage / cave chair finished. Bolts on back are a tad too long, but it's all I had. Will shorten them at some point. Came out alright considering it was in the skip. Missus T is gonna shit when she comes in soon 😂😂😂
DT36 Posted September 12, 2019 Author Report Posted September 12, 2019 And the question was "WTF is that doing in here?" 1 2
colr6 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Posted September 12, 2019 Super glue it to the floor so your other half can’t shift whilst your out 😜😜 Looks ace by the way 👍👍 1
notenoughtime Posted September 12, 2019 Report Posted September 12, 2019 My missus would have chucked it out lol, we have recently had a new kitchen so no chance anything allowed in now not even me! Haha 1

Haha Can understand her not allowing you in, but the chair ...pure class...she needs educating in fine art 😉
DT36 Posted September 12, 2019 Author Report Posted September 12, 2019 Col, you sent your voucher off yet? Get them done and quietly slip them on the wall somewhere in the house while she's out. 😂
colr6 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Posted September 12, 2019 Just waiting for delivery on the Tina one, got the 22x16 ....she don’t know it yet but it’s going above the tv so I can keep an eye on it 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎 1
