Yes, there was at least one batch of t-shirts. I don't recall who made them.

Was probably 7-8 years ago. if someone wanted to organize a new buy I'll bet a lot of people would jump on board. The original short-sleeves were pretty heavy duty, although I thing the long-sleeved version was a bit less well-made (I think the stitching where the sleeve connects to the torso failed pretty quick).

I had the first batch made up years and years ago. They were very good quality shirts. If we get a good design, I'll get another set made up.

I could help with the design, that's what my undergrad was in. I could put together comps and post. I just need to know what everyone wants?

I'm in!

If a design is developed, perhaps some window/trailer stickers, too.

Very interested, especially long sleeve for obvious reasons. I'd say go at it with 3 comps. My advice: think 911.

"what everyone wants" around here that would be about 20 designs.
They were good shirts. Mine lasted for a good long while before "Have you seen the shirt with the 911 on the back? What do you mean you chucked it out? It was not all worn out, it had some stains and a hole or three but it was still good!" conversation was had with the wife unit.

IIRC the first round had Jim R's 911 long hood ass up with its motor out and parts all over the ground around it. Then the dorki were doing motor swaps in driveways. Might want to evolve the design to better reflect the dorki at the track thing. A car 1/2 apart, just at the track and the owner in a bit more of a hurry to get it back together.

Can we have the "Poem" printed down one of the sleeves?

FWIW, I like motor diagram on the OPs design.
