| Wayne Finch | CJ, with all your posts and rummaging through your files, what about putting a book together with all copies of all the ads/brocheres/articles/press kits, etc that have been produced and selling it through the Prowler store. Obviously a massive project but you seem to be doing a lot of the work by posting for our enjoyment. (permission to reprint might be tricky) This would end up being the ultimate Prowler collectible. I would think people would pay handsomely for such a book - especially if you signed each copy  |
| Orange | Great idea ........ a book that includes every article ever made on the prowler. Price: $19.99
w/ signiture: $599.99 |
| Ed W. | Just what my wife needs..........
another example of me say "But Honey, I want......"In any case, count me in too! |
| Pantera | There is a company called Brooklands Books that writes car books called "Gold Portfolios". They are a collection of all of the magazine articles written on that car. They do a lot of books on low production cars like the Pantera and Marcos. I'll bet they could be convinced to do one on the Prowler. ------------------

| Pantera | Here is their Email info@brooklands-books.com
I sent them an Email, introducing myself and the club and asked them to produce a Prowler book. Who knows...maybe something will come out of it.

| CJ | Interesting idea, but publishing a book would definitely be a huge undertaking and costly, I'm sure. That does give me an idea, though. Instead of a book, I might do color copies (or digital photos printed) of all the articles and at least put together a binder. It would be easier to look at everything than going through all the magazines. I do have the articles marked with color tabs, but it's still time consuming to go through all the magazines....there's close to a hundred, at least. Thanks for the idea!  Hopefully, Pantera can generate some interest with the Brooklands Books people. |

| Bcoffman Gray Ghost | As mentioned in previous posts. Aren't these magazine articles all copy-righted? Don't want to forget about copy-right laws. |
| CJ | You're right about the copyright laws. That's another reason why I would not undertake such a project. An actual book company like the one Pantera mentioned might be able to accomplish getting reprint permission from all the magazines. If I put together a binder of color copies, it will be just for myself (not to make copies and sell).......and anyone else that might want to look at it. |

CJ you don't need to sell the copies. You could just give all of us free copies. lol
|
| CJ | Lone Ranger..........Okay, when I hit the lottery, I'll do that! lol! Or I guess, if I made myself a binder and sent it to you to copy, then you could send it to someone else to copy, etc. etc. etc..........I wonder when I would get it back? Year 2010 maybe?? |

| ed monahan | CJ, make two copies. Keep one original, send the other one around the world. It might meet up with the Armadillo at some point. |
| CJ | Ed.......now there's another good idea! |
| Georgia Prowler | CJ,
I want to put my request in for the "binder" ...pleeeeease!!!

Great idea. LOL You could make it like a chain letter/ binder and if the recipient doesn't make copies and send it to seven other POA members within a short period of time their wheels would start to peel. Oops, forget the wheel thing......lol. |
| CJ | Funny! |
