Anyone in Las Vegas interested in this? Sorry if this is a repost, just surffing on Craigslist.

Sounds like fun. You'd think that someone who works for an advertising company would know how to spell vehicle though...

Looks like my car may well be in a billboard ad for a new "vintage clothing" store named "Annie Creamcheese" in the Palazzo (brand new casino opening this month).

Cool. I'm glad I posted that lead.
Please post pics of the photo shoot and billboard.

You have to post picture you take during the shoot. Not just the final product.

The photo shoot was Monday. I took lots of pics of the 3+ hour shoot, here are a few.
The billboards are supposed to go up around Feb-March, including probably one on I15 on the way from California in March. Perfect timing for AMVIV!

That is very cool! Looking at the images, I think that one model scratched your Mini with her high-heels.

BTW - This might be worthy enough for publishing in Mini World or Mini Magazine. Think about it.

The heel was on the tire, not the paint. How do I contact Mini World or Mini Magazine?

Sandie, my wife was there and thought it was pretty cool. The $125 they paid me helped convince her it was a good idea. She is the one in the leather jacket and the MINI hat.

I'm planning on getting some pics of me standing with the car in front of the billboard showing my car.
Ashley, I sent emails to both Mini World and Mini Magazine and got responses to both. We'll have to see if anything comes of either.

Agro, how did you get your car over the curb? I've been wanting to get some shots there myself but haven't figured out how to jump the curb...

Ross, I took some lumps of wood down with me. Made virtual ramps via steps. If you're going down there, warn me and I might take my 03 down too. I need an updated goodbye pic for the AMVIV site.
MINIxB, I have 2 stickers on the rear glass. The top center is an "ACTUAL SIZE" decal, the top right corner has a Sin City MINI Club decal.
