Full order has been submitted.
 
Beautiful stuff and it appears I was not looking in the right place...

Maybe I can get in next time or see about some sort of custom Clark related something..

I can get to work reading this thread though!
If you have a design in mind that would speed up the whole process, and I can check with vendor if he is able to take one more set. @1stEmiraNow2Clarks

If you have an idea, or an example of some elements you would like in it, I've been doing the artwork for most everyone here, no charge for forum members.

I sent a DM to you and @Eagle7 (haha.. before I saw this..) but just in case, I'll copy and paste it here too.

Hi!
Thanks for tagging me in the one thread that I missed the order window. But I was intrigued that you or that @675430VME could help. Maybe I could get other Clark owners on board... or possibly get in on the order?

Either way.. the idea intrigues me, mainly as for a car that has so much special stuff all over it, the quarter badges just say "EMIRA V6"... kinda blah.

But as the car is a tribute to the 1965 INDY race, I was thinking of tying it all together....

My Chat GPT skills are non existent, but I have minor photo shop skills to modify a pic..

Anyway, at the Flag end I was thinking a couple lines of a checkerboard flag that maybe cover the top half, then below that in smaller font, but all capitals "INDY 1965"
Then the main area would say "CLARK" on the top , then EMIRA below it. Also CLARK in capitals and the standard EMIRA below it.
The other way I thought was the standard EMIRA on top line, the smaller font below that says CLARK EDITION below.

What do you think? Any other ideas? Are you still helping out us poor schlubs or over it by now?

Thank you so very much anyway!

Now that I've read through all these pages I see why I missed it... I was getting my delivery, working on registration and my birthday.. so I didn't look around much!

If that's something either of you could do, it would be so appreciated!!


Thanks for all of what you do, including the money man, @beefeater
 
My poorly hand drawn quick ideas.. @Eagle7 and @675430VME

Laughing or sympathy is completely appropriate. 😃

spacing of lettering is whatever looks right or works.. but my cursory idea.

@007Lotus007 @Vintage any interest here?
Trying to come up with some ideas that will work. Old fashioned graphics on a very modern shape tend to clash, and after struggling with it, this is what I'm toying with at the moment. I'd like to put some color in it because Jim Clark's car was such a beautiful and striking livery, but I don't want to have conflicting greens and yellows with the color of the car. Do any of these grab you? That's Jim Clark's signature on them.

Wow!!
I ran into the same "issue" with my Jim Clark Elise.. in the side view , there is NO yellow, so I Welcome the yellow! The next question is the green.. the originals were British Racing Green, on the Emira it is a metallic green. Not sure if the contrast is better... (of BRG to Metallic green) I tend to think so.
The only thing I would like to see if it can be incorporated in the design is "INDY" somewhere.. mainly as to my knowledge, this was the only Clark tribute targeting the Type 38 Indy car from Lotus.

Maybe it could be the "JIM CLARK INDY EDITION" ?

Edit.. Really liking the bottom one of your designs.

Other choices ?
CLARK INDY EDITION
JIM CLARK WINS INDY ... WON INDY???

P.P.S Edit...

I wonder if JIM CLARK 1965 would work? It implies his greatest year, the 82 covers the Indy car... :unsure:

And yes, I love the signature... mine already has it incorporated into the dash, outside is a cool touch too.

This looks good, I really like the last one! The only thing I will change is sinking 82 and the white background just a little to be inline with the top of the yellow strip..
