Had some great news today.
Following TOR Posting their new project vehicle (silver LWB Collie) I decided that a cheeky little post in the comments was in order. So I popped this pic from Lincomb up with the comment; One day it could look like this!!!!!!
This was followed up by a brief exchange
Total Off-Road That's pretty much the plan, Christopher! Is that your truck? We've still never featured a Colorado in the mag - yours could still be the first!
Christopher Blake Yep that ones mine. Still adding bits all the time. Would love to be in TOR with it.
Total Off-Road Nice one - drop us a PM via Facebook or email the Ed at [email protected] and we'll go from there!
So I sent them an email last week and got a response today.
Hi Chris
Many thanks for your email the other day. I'm definitely interested in your truck (not only to nick ideas for the Colorado we've just bought), if you'd be up for us doing something about it in TOR?
We've got a couple of photoshoots coming up which aren't a million miles away from you, if the dates would suit and you'd be up for coming along. One is at Tong, near Bradford, on 17 August, if you fancy a bit of time on the M62. The next will be even nearer, at Kirton Off Road Centre the following weekend - not sure which day yet, but we're going to be going to the bank holiday weekender there to shoot one of the marshals' vehicles.
Would either of those be any use to you? It normally takes about 2 hours to get all the pics we need of a vehicle, so you wouldn't be tied up for the whole day. Do let me know - it would be good to sniff around a Colorado that's already had the sort of stuff done that we're planning for ours!
Best regards
Alan
Looking at doing the Kirton one and I am really getting rather excited.
