Wanna Be In The Paper?
« on: August 15, 2005, 10:38:38 AM »
hey all,
I'm doing a story for the Coquitlam NOW Newspaper to promote the Great Canadian VW Show this Sunday, and we need some art to go along with the story. I've set up a time with Geoff to meet our photographer tonight with his car, but thought it'd be cool to have a few other cars in the shot as well...

So if you want your car to be the paper, here's the 411:

Meet at Coquitlam Sports Centre
633 Poirier St., Coquitlam
ice arena parking lot
TONIGHT @ 7:30 p.m.
Directions from No. 1 Highway: Take Brunette North exit. Turn left onto Blue Mountain Street (PetroCan on left-hand side), and go up steep hill. Turn right on Austin Avenue. Turn left on Poirier Street. Centre on right-hand side.

I'm hoping that we can get at least three cars -- more are definitely welcome. :wub:

Please post if you're thinking of dropping in, so I can give our shooter an idea of what to expect.

I was actually thinking about going down there but.....I have a car to restore. It's called commitment....u know all about that.
And get some pics of the Volvo up or i'm comming to your house...I'm sure you don't want that...could run down your property value! :huh:
