Ford Team RS Jacket and Hat available!!

zetec · 29-08-2005, 02:33 PM

Hi Guys and gals,

As part of our annual fundraising activities for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, my department here at work is selling some merchandise that was donated to us by various brand teams all in the name of charity. Amongst the items we have 4 Ford Team RS jackets (the new aussie Ford Rally Team!!!) and as many caps as we can sell (about 200). You can be amongst the first (and only) lucky new owners of Ford Team RS merchandise!! I will post pics up here tonight, but I am gauging interest Australia wide. Happy to post interstate if you can cover postage costs which I can look into for you or in Melb I can give to you on the next cruise/deliver to your house if nearby. Shouldn't be pricey for postage, they're light objects and I won't be making any profit whatsoever like people on Ebay!!! All proceeds are donated to JDRF for the 2005 annual fundraising leading up to the Walk to Cure Diabetes on October 16th, 2005 here in Melbourne.

Jackets are $40
Hats are $10

Pics to come tonight. There are 2 large and 2 x-large jackets, hats are one size fits all.

Put me down for a hat it is the least i could do for a good cause.

b2tf · 29-08-2005, 08:34 PM

Bugger it, I step out of the office for one night and look what I miss!

Ah well.

fordel · 29-08-2005, 09:44 PM

haha

no the jackets went long before you posted

Chris

**Polyal** · 29-08-2005, 09:49 PM

ah crap..oh well....Matt if they are awesome I want to know where I can buy one.

FOCUSonTHIS · 29-08-2005, 10:08 PM

Matt give me a hat for free and i will happily take it off your hands lol.....

fordel · 29-08-2005, 10:19 PM

hahaha

ahh so new and already wanting free stuff ;)

Chris

zetec · 29-08-2005, 10:37 PM

Lol look at you lot, fighting like squirrels over the last acorn!!!!

Here's the pics as promised. So far Chris and Stephen have the two X-large ones (which is one of the ones pictured, only opened for the photos.) The remaining two large ones are currently on hold for myself and another workmate for this weekend's rally unless we are able to source some free ones as we'll be at Rally of Melbourne. If they can't find any free ones, we'll then purchase them ourselves to wear this weekend. If they can find us each one, then I have already sold one of these two and the remaining one is for the next person here who asked, which is between whippet and timmeh. I'm guessing it's whippet by order of posts.

I am trying to see if there are any more, I was somewhat taken aback by the demand, I was half expecting it but not so quickly!!! If more become available I will promise to let you know, Tim is first in line! Sorry if it was a mad rush, it's all in the name of charity with every last cent going to JDRF (details here http://www.jdrf.org.au/).

I'll PM Bank details to those who have ordered jackets or hats and will endeavour to find out the postage costs tomorrow or ASAP to the major cities and towns that you all live in! Bryce and Stephen, I'll either hand deliver or meet you on the next cruise.

b2tf · 29-08-2005, 10:44 PM

Matt how many of these do you have? Im just thinking - stuff like this would be really good for raffles, prizes etc @ the All Ford Day.

fordel · 29-08-2005, 10:44 PM

Awesome, they both look brilliant,

Cant wait to get them

Chris

zetec · 29-08-2005, 11:04 PM

Unfortunately I don't have a great deal of stuff Aust, wish we had more to sell, this is just for our JDRF fundraising and you wouldn't be able to approach Ford for this kind of stuff, your dealership would be the best place to start for that I'd imagine.

For a more detailed description, the caps are 100% cotton and feel like a very well made unit.

The jackets are 320g polar fleece interior with a turtle neck (or open collar as shown in the 2 photos above) and have 600mm water resistance, so they're warm and waterproof!!! Very light feel, very warm and really comfortable.

Below is Michael Guest wearing one!! He's the new Focus driver for those not in the know. He's also wearing the hat!! :nutsycuck

**Polyal** · 29-08-2005, 11:18 PM

well that team is going to need all the money it can get...so I assume they are going to have a big launch at the ext round..so merchandise should be available if they are smart

zetec · 29-08-2005, 11:20 PM

Hopefully merchandise will eventually be available, it'll probably have a lot of sponsor logos on it which would be cool, but an original jacket is cool too!!
