W123 T-shirt!

Hello Benz friends
I'm an active member on benzworld (W123 and W210 forums) but new to this site, though it looks like it will be extremely useful as I attempt to rehab a forgotten 78 euro 300D.

A few weeks ago I had the thought as I was trying to accelerate from a stop that it's ironic that it's called a 123 when it's so ridiculously slow.

Hey wait a minute, that would make a great T-shirt!

I'm a huge fan of a small gearhead shirt company called blipshift. They have original designs, two per week, and are made to order; after the sale ends designs are no longer available unless they are reprinted. I probably have about a dozen of their shirts. Since I'm not a graphic designer, I submitted my idea (rather than a complete design) and it has been realized by Ben Van Antwerp, a freelance artist who has done several of my favorites. I think it turned out great.

I don't make any commission from the shirt sales but I will be especially proud if the design ends up selling well. The shirt is available now until Thursday at 10pm, when the next design is revealed.

Please have a look at blipshift | Car shirts you want, 1 at a time, $15, Don't Drive Naked

Thanks for reading and I look forward to exploring your forum more.
Patrick

I picked up one for me and my son. Also got one of their "the world is flat" boxer engine stickers.

We missed out on this one! http://blipshift.com/products/spark-rehab

Got one for me and one for my dad. Blipshift has made a fortune off peach parts with this one and the Gimme 5, 5 cylinder engine shirt.

Damn, I saw the glow plug shirt was from last year. Maybe if enough people sign up to be notified of its re-release, they will sell it again. I gave my email address to be notified if it comes back out. Thats pretty funny, I also just got the current shirt.
