We had a cool caricature done for the Solvang Run - but no one is allowed to use it. You had to be there, or buy a T-shirt (included on Run)!:



Next year, another, better caricature!

We're going to go the the Super Chevy Show next weekend here at Bandimere Speedway and I'm going to hunt down a caricature artist while I am there. Will take some photos of my HHR on my new digital camera and try and get one done and will post it here. Once that's done, maybe we can convert them to an iron-on for t-shirts or whatever. I'll see what I can find and let you guys know.

Mike I have asked the folks at Ruckus Rods to consider the HHR as a subject for one of thier designs because of it's popularity, I will talk to them more when I provide them with the review from our run. I have also drawn an Ed roth "Rat Fink" style HHR complete with monster thrugh the roof and hopefully my kid or I can get it airbrushed onto a t-shirt soon. I will try to get my scanner to work and put the drawing on the forum. I love the t-shirt design that Socal has up, very cool !!!

Mike, I don't understand why no one would be able to use that graphic. I have been in advertising for over 20 years and from what I know, that image is not the property of Chevrolet. It is a drawing of a vehicle. Yes, it is an HHR and while GM does own the copyright one the HHR logos and names, they can't stop someone from drawing an HHR and selling pictures or for that matter even taking pictures of their own HHR and selling the pictures. I don't see anything on that shirt logo that GM owns.

I think what he's saying is that he owns the right to the image because he created it and used it for the Solvang Run.

Ahhhh! I thought you meant that someone told you that you couldn't use it because it had an HHR on it. After the explanation and rereading it, I see that you are saying that no one else can use it other than you... All clear now.
