Orange Whip in action - with margaritas. Next party, actual orange-whip type drink using the optional whipping chamber! Party! I started with the recipe AZ Blues found: I remember Orange Whip tasting just like the newer Orange Julius; creamy and sweet, so probably orange juice with cream or milk and sugar, maybe some spices to give it the flavor it had. I found this recipe online for a two serving batch in a blender: ------------------------------------------------------------ Recipe Ingredients for Orange Whip 6 ounces frozen orange juice concentrate 1 cup 2% milk 1 cup water 1 teaspoon vanilla Recipe Directions for Orange Whip: Combine all ingredients in blender. Blend 1-2 minutes, adding 8 ice cubes one at a time, until smooth. ------------------------------------------------------------ Issue #1: The pump in the jetspray machine isn't designed (and can't) mix the slurpy concentrate with the milk/water. So ran this through a blender: 3 cans concentrate 1 cup milk 3 cup water 1 teaspoon vanilla Notice that the recipe called for 1-cup of water, but also listed several cups of ice, so I just went with 3 cups of water. Issue #2: The jetspray machine needs a minimum fluid level, or it just sucks air. So I made another blender-full of ingredients, doubling the total to: 6 cans concentrate 2 cup milk 6 cup water 2 teaspoon vanilla Issue #3: It was quite tart (serious orange tang). It was suggested that instead of water, I add milk, so I added a good deal of milk, maybe getting this total: 6 cans concentrate 10 cup milk 6 cup water 2 teaspoon vanilla We tried it with, and without, the air "whipping chamber" in the machine, and having the chamber installed made a pleasant noticeable whippy approved difference. The interior spray pattern was quite different than when I used it with margaritas. With the margarita, the pump pushed the liquid up the tower and sprayed it violently against the interior lid, splashing it all around the bowl. With orange whip, it pumped it up, and barely launched the liquid before it fell to the bottom of the bowl. After a while, you could see froth floating along the top of the liquid in the bowl. It worked well; just a different spray pattern. your friend in birthday drink surprises, arthur

It's good to know other tv/movie car nuts also collect props like used in the movies. I have a couple old HP computers used on Knight Rider in the semi, which I hope to have some day. I also have a vintage Simpson racing suit like Cale Yarborough wore on the Dukes episode he was on. With the white Charger. I also own some original pieces from the original Duke farm in Ga.

It looks pretty good. The branders.com site also looks like a strong possibility. Hi TK: Some months ago, I sent you an e-mail about getting the logo across the entire cup surface on branders. Any luck/thoughts of getting some cups made, or sending me a clean logo so I can get some made? I see this interesting item on e-bay: www.ebay.com/itm/Starline-Dripcut-Orange-Whip-Commercial-Drink-Mixer-Maker-Very-RARE-/121214219139?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c38ee3383It's an original unused Orange Whip machine. And it's not a JetSpray. It's a Starline: I spoke with the seller, and she got it at an estate sale. From looking at what's included in the auction, and what I expect to be there, it looks like the bowl decals are missing. I guess someone used them years ago to put on the wall or a school notebook. Interesting machine. Presumably its more rare than a JetSpray, but it would seem to be LESS valuable than a JetSpray, since parts for the JetSpray are more readily available. your friend in both kinds of orange whip machines, arthur

No, or I'd have a 1974 Dodge Monaco police car! This guy started out it looks like collecting old trucks and a few cars then just started collecting (or saving) every single thing he ever put his hands on. A little strange but actually great for those - "who the hell would have saved one of those" type of things! He had shopping bags, cigar wrappers, cereal boxes, and anything that he used around the house in huge piles. Don't know where else I would have found these - but there they were in a pile of old cups and wrappers.

By the way do you know if there are any shirts left in a size large? Guess I could go back through the posts and direct this question to who was making them huh?

After a hiatus on these, I am once again setting up for a new run of shirts. I’ll be making quite a few, but for those interested and would like to ensure their size, amounts, and color choice is included, please shout out here and / or a PM. Thanks. *Just a reminder... the white shirt logo is “clean” and intact. The orange shirt logo is intentionally “distressed” to look aged. Both are located on the back of the shirt. Attachments:

cool, put me down for a white shirt size large, that is depending on how much you're selling these for.

Finally... Because my original shirt printer disappeared into the Ether... and my PC recently decided to have a meltdown, loosing the original artwork, I had to re-draw the entire design from scratch.
But w/ a few more years of Illustrator practice, from last time until now, I am even happier with the latest version.
The order is underway now. There should be 3 versions:
Orange shirt/ Clean Logo Orange shirt/ Distressed Logo White shirt/ Clean Logo
* As last time,the placement and layout of the design is what is shown in the film. Something I have never discovered in any of the vintage advertising materials.
There won't be a mass amount made, so wanted to give members here first choice. They will be printed on Gilden Brand (pre-shrunk) 100% Cotton shirts.
They will be made here in town locally.
I am trying to have them priced at the 20-ish dollar range.
Post here or send a message if interested.

An update:
The few "Medium" sizes I had are gone. All of the Orange shirts with the non-distressed design, are gone.
If enough others are interested in either of those, I can set up a new run. There are some left of the other two designs, in various sizes.
The final cost came out to 25, with free shipping to anywhere in the US.
