Kit Car Nov 01 Issue
Does anyone have a copy of KIT Car Nov 2001 to hand? I have tried KC back issues but they are no longer available.
I would like to see the article on Phantom Vortex GTR, scan or PDF would be great. |
I can sort that. :eusa_clap:
Please e-mail me so that I've got your return address. :cool: |
I have it and will post it if Den can't. Or can scan of course.

Done it Ferg. :biggrin:
Actually, it’s kick started something I’ve been meaning to get around to for years :eusa_shifty: . Namely the offering of any, and every, article that’s ever appeared in any of my publications - and those that I have copyright through purchasing, like KC&S. Den :eusa_angel: . |

Offer it free to your subscribers and charge £40 for the privelage to everyone else. With a free subscription of course! :eusa_think: |
Mark,
It’s a mammoth task! :confused: My plan is to scan to order, as ordered, to start with. :eusa_clap: Then when I’ve got enough articles scanned, I’ll do something more ambitious along the lines you :eusa_shhh: suggested. How does that sound? What would be a reasonable charge for a scan and deliver service for the kind of article mentioned on this thread (5 pages)? :eusa_shifty: Den. :cool: |

I'm sure everyone (especially Spydernut) would like it FOC. |
It’s a tricky one. :eusa_boohoo: There are potentially 5000 articles to scan. :confused:
Of course the best place for scanned articles is some form of indexed and cross-referenced computer data-base. I’m gonna need an IT expert’s help – eventually. :eusa_shifty: To start with, I think I’ll charge £3 per article for the first three. Then £1 per article thereafter. To cover the time in finding, collating, scanning, burning/transmitting. As I said, an automated self-service system is required, but the scans have to be there first. Loads of work. Den.:cool: :cool: |
Backissues
Den, sounds like a v.good idea, :eusa_clap: tons of work though :cry: so I guess the £3.00 does seem reasonable considering the work involved but my hunch is that for joe public that may be a tad expensive when you can get a complete back issue for the same £.
Bear in mind that you are only going to get people who want articles that K.C does not have back issues for so you could eliminate quite a few articles at the start and then add, as and when KC have run out. The GTR article came out fine however when expanded was huge. :confused: The only way i could view it was to scroll the page bars across and along to view. Was quite a big jpeg file, 3 meg for 3 sides of A4. If you have Acrobat 6 you can get some really small files generated. Anyway, glad I got some cogs whirring and appreciate all help. :eusa_clap: |
Den,
Let me know if you want to talk over the IT side of things. Darran |
PDF's
Den , would recommend the use of a a PDF printer , its just a little piece of software that when you print you choose the PDF printer and it creates a PDF file that can be sent anywhere and is universal !
Even better some of these items are free. Idel for sending Magazine articles. Dave Ingerson |
