Got mine! Whoohoo! Glad I got one this year! Thanks Bob! Nice job! Looks fantastic!
And I love that Type 34 from Germany with the Randars/Radars. The '63 Ruby Red Notch ain't too shabby either... I can't believe that's what mine looked like at one point... It's so... shinny!!!

Everyone who has previously paid via check, money order, paypal, sexual favors, etc... has been guaranteed a calendar. I have about 10 or so left here. Another shipment for those who paid with a MO or Check either went out today or will be shipped tomorrow. If there is anyone who still wants one but haven't ordered it, act now or you may not have a chance in the not too distant future. Like I said, there are about 10 left.
Thanks for all the love guys, keeps me inspired to continue making these things. For those who want to get in the Calendar, please send me some nice scenic pics... I already have 3 cars for the 2010 calendar.

LOL, that's because your name was on the final sheet of labels, which I didn't print until I filled it out... Your's and Dong's went out yesterday. Sorry for the delay. Geez, I feel like I'm a Drug Dealer and these Calendar's are your 'fix'. I can see it now... sign on the door, "T3-Aholics Anonymous"... "My name is Mike Fisher and I'm a T3-Aholic"... HI MIKE!
A side note... anyone interested in selling his or her T-3 2008 Calendar from last year, I have someone interested in buying a few. Send me an email if interested in selling it back. I knew these were going to be collector's items one day.

My Postman thinks I'm stalking him. I leave for work late waiting for him to show up each morning. I can hardly wait, and yes Bob, I think we should start a T3-aholics Anonymous.

OK, let me be the first to say...
"You know you are a T3-Aholic..."
When you tell your wife that her Anniversary Diamond ring this year is in the shape of a 1964 Pacific Blue Type-34...
Just added to the Gizmobob family of Type-3s! A true Garage find. One owner car and garaged it's entire life! Original motor, rust-free pans, excellent interior, no accidents, and all OG except for a respray 30 or so years ago.
