Advertising.

I just purchased a 2003 Speedway white 'vert and I want to advertise what I do on it (sub-prime auto financing (614loan.ca check it out

)) and I was wondering if anyone has any ad graphics on their Vette, I want some ideas as to the size of lettering and placement. Thanks in advance people.

I'm in the advertising business and my company has designed a few vehicle wrap type jobs. My advice is keep is clean, easy to read, and tasteful. Just becasue you CAN use every color in the world doens't mean you should.

The fact that your vehicle is white is good since well designed graphics will really pop. The Vette has some decent, uncluttered space on it, too, which is also good.

Give 75% of your design one main thing you want people to remember (a phone number, a name or a website) because the averge person sitting in traffic or seeing you whiz by on the highway isn't going to be able to take in every detail.

And lest you risk being demonized on CF for marking up a vette, keep it respectable to the image of the car!

Hi Monk! What ever happened with the black "flood car?" I felt comfortable with you prevailing but was just curious. I can see it now, Vette advertising tax deduction, Eh?

I don't know what Canada's laws are but here in the US that can get you a ticket on certain highways and parkways depending on the state and laws. Some require you to have commercial plates.

Check with your insurance company as well. My personal car insurance company that I have had for 22 years does not cover for business car. I had to get a seperate policy for 1 business vehicle. Also chek with your tax accountant to make sure that the car be used as a tax write off. Jus because you have your business name on it, does not necessarily make it a tax write off. My car is registered in my businees name as well as the insurance for it as well as the title to my S corporation.
