Engraved/etched pint glass sounds marvellous! This is something I've had quite some time, which my Grandmother bought me, I really like the look and effect it gives. A 300 in that style and wooohoooo! :lol: sm99 Cheers for the link Mick, I think I'll be getting one or two made up!

LOL, sorry to add this, but there's someone who hasn't heard about the incident!?! Who and where, tell the man now!

But back to the mugs/pint glasses, I'd definitely be up for the pint glass, or even just etched standard size glasses. It's a bit more specialist that just a photo on a mug, so anyone know of A- anyone capable, for a small batch, that's competitively priced and B- of a suitable 300 picture that they can covert into the correct line style image, similar sort of angle to the estate on my glass, with a V3M plate would look awesome!

The biggest bother will be finding the image, I would make one but alas, i dont have a tablet, and I'm not that good with the mouse.
That image is taken from the blueprints that are dotted about the net

if someone has the image from the front of the haynes manual, that might work?

That is a perfect combination! Though getting that 'blueprint' image in the quality required might be a bugger :(
