the "Pere Noel 2000 inc." (Santa Claus 2000 inc.) corporation did request major design changes for their 2008 model (PN 7003 RR1000 2008). A canopy was added as well as a rear RAM intake to improve clutch ventilation. The last design details were drawn in our mobile Prevost car studio, just before the final presentation. I had to use our special studded motorcycle (we ran out of fuel) and walk the last 50 KM to reach the office.

We were told that some of the users (mostly 90% tile type Santa Claus) were using our first 2004 990cc engine to save on fuel. The complete body work was changed for a trendy hard edge design. A modular rear trunk box from Kimpex was fixed on a custom steel rack and a twin track system from Camoplast is now offering a comfortable 12" travel.

UCI design of a convertible 50 Santas
regional jet aircraft is tested with succes. Next year should reserve a nice Santa Claus paratrooper operation.

back when Design and life was not an easy thing to persue...well is it really?
And the actual NASA type office...somewhere between "the Real, the Possible and the Imaginary.
Happy hollidays!

quittés le 4 décembre dernier.

Thank you Gary, Merry Christmas!
Thank you Gary, ...right! Well, you never know if the customer is to be handle with respect, diplomacy or plain brutal force...I got the diplomatic car for everybody, and, just in case, the tank is nearby if something goes really out of control! This is Christmas strategic design!
Lovely sketchwork Martin. Every home should have a tank in the garage too!
Another great piece for the Aube file - top stuff Martin.
