A Print of your series 2

Hi,

Firstly I have no connection with the guy doing this, he did a GREAT job for me and now other Minor owners (Series 2) can benefit.

He has produced a hand drawn print of my car ( black 1953 2 door series 2 ) from some photos I sent to him. The quality is amazing. See a small version of it below.

It cost me a fair bit, but it was worth it.

He now has the print and he can produce more at a very low price. You could have one for £8 and if you want it personalised (i.e. with YOUR registation number on it) he charges an extra £3.
This is not just a scanned image or photocopy.

I get no benefit from this whatsoever, it is just that I thought that other members might want to have a print of their series 2?

His email is neil_farrington@talktalk.net

I do hope I am not breaking any rules here, my aim is just to help other members.

Thanks
Steve B

Hi,

I feel that I should clarify yet again that I have no connection to this guy whatsoever, it is just that I love the stuff he does.

He has now adapted the print I paid him for to offer different colours for other series 2 owners.

I will try to upload the samples he has sent, he has done four colurs now, Black (mine) Grey, off white and green.

They seem to be really good quality.[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]

If I am breaking any rules then pleasae remove this post, I don't want to upset anyone.

Cheers

If he had a stand a the National Rally he might get a few customers if he could produce a range of cars/travellers/vans etc

Hi, yes I mentioned that to him and he said that he would need to build up his range of cars a bit more before a stand would be worth it.

But they are very good aren't they?

He did one of a Dolomite sprint from his stock and I was so impressed I paid for his time to draw one of my minor from scratch, it cost me a fair bit, but it was worth it and now other series 2 owners can benefit from that.

These are not just "photoshopped images" because the image has perfect chrome and door alignment etc unlike the real thing (at the moment).

I have ordered some mugs from him too so when I get them I will post a few "mug shots" (dreadful pun intended)
