Oh, yeah. that would work. That would be cool.
Who wants one? They come in black and white! Oh yeah, they don't exist, the whole project needs to be financed and production needs to be overseen by someone in the biz, I'm only an artist. I doubt my big incentive tax refund check would do it. These rock though. oh well, it was a nice dream.
NOW YOU'RE TALKIN'!!!!!!!!!!!!! :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:
I Want One !!!
Wow, now thats Constructive.... I don't appreciate your sarcasim
There are several Vendors that Shelled out the Money to make and sell licenced G.M. Products. (which is not cheap.)
They certainly will not appreciate this and have put a stop to more than one past project in the works. This is no different.
You will have do do some homework to find out what you can legally do.
Being GM is having hard times as it is... over the last few years they have been hammering anyone using any of their trademarks. It cost a ton of money to be licensed by GM as I am one of them. They inspect everything I do. I have to send pictures with all the design specs to them. Black and white, color, and what's used. Once that is approved (takes a few weeks) then I have to make the design and do it on several articles and then send that to them for approval (takes a few more weeks). Only after all that am I allowed to sell it. You have to send in quarterly reports, be insured, and a million other things just to let them use any of their trademarks.
They own all the Buick/GM logo's still and investigate anyone doing copywrite any type of infringement not matter how big or small. GM will spend 100K to sue you for 10K trust me. Do what you want but just be careful. They might come take it all. I know one embroider near me that was raided. They broke the doors down and took everything. He was out of business and in jail faster then you can draw a logo. I think in the end he paid 200K to get out of that mess. If you want to go the legal way this is the company you need to contact.. Equity Management Inc. They handle all of GM's logo's. I pay them about 10k a year and I'm only a little fish doing a few things here and there!!
Stay away from the logos, and your fine. You don't need permission to print up a shirt with your car on it. Though I could be wrong. Hey, I know! You seem like the kind of guy that likes to do things right. We're all cocerned about Ratfinks well being, right guys? I say we vote you to be the guy to look into the matter (do the homework). Here is General Motors phone number. Ready? 1-313-556-5000. I expect the results of your call posted here no later than 3 days from now, to give you enough time to do your dilligent research. We all will be anxiously awaiting to see what you come back with. Hurry up now, we all need our t-shirts. Good luck.... We're counting on you.
