Some good news, I talked to Bob this morning and Impala Bob's will provide 100 Dash Plaques if Jardine's will provide the hat pins. Brian when you have the final design send it to me Larry@impalas.com I will have them made and returned to you in about 2 weeks. Brian I will send you a PM. Larry

I have changed the pin to reflect the below image. I did this because the pin is only 2" wide and you won't be able to read everything I had on it previously.

How about T-Shirts, I have a friend that does a great job for me with our car show T-Shirts. He charges about $7.00 a shirt. I'm sure some of the members have other sources.
I will buy 2 hats. Larry

 

[b-d409]

I'll also buy 2 hats. If the T-Shirts are made, I'll take 2 of those also.

I spoke to the clerk at the Marriot; if we decide to go with the hats or T-Shirts we can send them our packages and they will hold until we check in. Larry

 

[Smokey1963]

Put me in for two of everything, and give me an idea where to send money. I will

send in advance if that helps, or even a donation toward getting them made.

Later

I just received the proof for the hat pin. It will be 2" wide x 1 1/2" tall



Larry (AZ409) and I are working on quotes for Hats and T-shirts. I will update all when we get the artwork done and quotes received.

Talking with Verne Frantz, he helps Ronnie Evans, Ronnie will be at Thompson with his '62 409 called WildFire.
I believe as the word of this event spreads, we'll see some guys that aren't members of our forum joining us. Can't have too many 409's!!! I also told Floyd Garrertt about it and I think he plans to attend.

Have the Mag do a photo shoot.

Here's the reply I got from Doug



Hi Jim,

Seems like I have not seen you since the early '80s when we put your 409 '57 in SC. I remember taking the photos at Dearborn CCI.

I will try to attend your Ohio 348-409 gig but right now I have no story assignment.
It is hard to travel ($) without knowing where I can sell a story on the event plus feature car stories too.

I also forwarded your email to Jim Campisano, editor of SC. I am sure he will be interested. (jim.campisano@sorc.com)

Thanks for letting me know.

Best!
