2008 Shelby or Shelby GT Calendar


BLD MOVS

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know where a 2008 Shelby GT or just Shelby calendar can be found? I have done a little research on Amazon.com but found nothing. I would sure think that with all of the special editions out for Shelby alone in the past few years that one could be made. It would also be cool if there was a calendar for all of the S195 special edition Mustangs that have come out, you know including the Bullitt, SGT, GT500, GT 500 SS KR, Roush, Saleen, Steeda, Parnelli, GT 500 KR 40th, Stock GT, California Special, Roush P-51A, and on and on....

 

Needless to say I am very surprised that a publishing company hasn't done this yet!!

Maybe someone will chime in but this might be a good question for the folks at Shelby Licensing as any calendar would have to go through them for approval. I sent them a note asking. I did a google search but other than some general Mustang or Car calendars with a Shelby or two I came up empty handed. If I hear back I will post.

Wouldn't be tough to do... Heck, any one of a hundred different websites make merch out of any photos you submit. You may have given me an idea for my office wall!

Check out:

Click on the details and pricing for the calendars at the bottom. Let me know what styles you like and send me a HI RES picture of your car. I'll only charge the fee listed, and any shipping, create the calendars using the pics of all the cars I get and have them shipped directly to you all!

Anyone interested in getting their car in please PM me with your email and I'll provide instructions. We'll include group shots and people pictures from the bash and just you and your car if you like. We can use those for the small pics scattered around the calendar.

 

This should be cool!

Considering Shelby has taken his name away from everyone, would be freaking nightmare getting approval for all those cars

*** UPDATE***

 

Wow...lots of interest! I will be getting back to everyone soon with more info!

 

HOWEVER, I also found out I can put little notations in the calendar days, like birthdays and events. So, I will be needing your birthday of course. If your car is in the calendar I was thing I could add an arrival note with the CSM number on the date like a birthday? Also any events etc. I was thinking the main meets, Team Shelby events, Carroll's birthday, Amy, Bud, John, Gary, etc. Maybe some Mustang historical dates? Thoughts?

Sounds like a great idea! I think for my office I will still do a "diy" calendar from Walgreens. It looks like you can do two different ones, one of which is bigger and has a nicer finish to the pictures.

Hey all!

 

I am holding off productionm until after the b-day party.

 

Here is "the plan":

 

1.) I will set up a shared internet drive location to drop off your files.

2.) I will create a "How To" with the information I need from you and how to get it to me.

3.) I will create the calendar and place the order which will be marked to ship directly to you.

 

I would like to get all 4 versions represented, White, Black, GO, Vista, BJ if possible.

 

You will hear more from me shortly after the party.

 

Thanks!

-Jeff

Hey all!

 

It was great meeting so many of you this weekend at Carroll's Birthday Party!

 

Now it's time to get those photo's together!

 

Here's what I am thinking. We want a good cross section of cars, angles, people, geography, etc. Some pics from the party, the run, etc. However, we only have 12 months to work with and even with multiple pictures per month we have only so much space. So I am limiting this to it's original intent as a Shelby GT Calendar and will accept only full resolution images. The ones that come directly from your camera at 3MP resolution or better (hopefully).

 

Please PM me for directions on how to send me your photos. I will accept them until the end of this week so we can get the order in. Once I have the layout and such I will post more details and how to buy.

 

ANYONE can send calendar events! As I said the calendar will have holidays and I can add some events such as Team Shelby meets and car purchase or arrival dates. Please send any of these requests to me via PM and be sure to include your CSM number.

 

Thanks!

Hey there,

 

MIGHT not be so easy to find. Looks like Ford is going after BMCForums (The Black Mustang Club) for their annual calendar - saying that the photos in the calendar are Ford's property. Here is an interesting link:

Yes, this is why we are not selling the calendar at a profit nor am I taking money! The photos will be of our cars and like any other collection you take to Wall-greens etc., they are for our personal use. The money is cost NO profit. This is fair use. However, when you use a Ford or Shelby brand, to make money as they are, you run into trouble. What we are doing is sharing pictures of our cars and together getting a calendar created for our own enjoyment. NO ADDITIONAL FEES and SHIPPED DIRECT. I don't even take possession and the orders are placed with the calendar company by individual. I'll I am doing is serving as the collector. Worse case if someone were to push this I could easily provide the pictures to each person with the order info.

 

Again, what raises the eyebrows of the brand and legal teams is if you try to make money off the brand or cause confusion in the market. We will not be selling these beyond the people that request to have their car included.
