1967
Chevelle - owned by Bob & Susan Ashley
The car already had the
white base paint and stripes - Bob wanted a "syphilis
Germ painted on the back - a cartoon he had seen...
they want it, we could do
it... |
|
 |
The trunk was selected for
the mural of the "Syphilis Germ" Cop - note the burned rubber on the
pavement... |

197? Honda - Moxie
They just wanted a stripe
and a mural on the hood of this little Honda. |
|
 |
Why they wanted a mountain
goat on a Honda, I never did find out... |

196? Opal GT
- Lil' Devil
Some people will have you
paint anything. This was a very wild little Opal GT that was
fitted with wide tires/wheels after leaving the shop. |
|
 |
This Airman was just a
little strange... |

197?
Ford Pickup
Wayne brought this one by
for a paintjob right after he purchased it. |
|
|
|
|
 |
Flames
were added along with murals down the side, in colors that accented the
brown truck. |
 |
| |
|
|
 |
The
Pearl flames show up differently as the light reflects on them |

Chevy Chevrolet Pickups
There was a time when
there was a new pickup daily in the shop, most off the new car lots,
getting us to paint murals down the side of them. 3 hours work and
an easy $300 per truck. We would average 2-3 of these a week at
minimum. |

7? Chevy Pickup
- Shortened
This use to be a long-bed
Chevy pickup |
|
 |
A 32" section was taken
out between the cab and the rear wheels! |
 |
| |
|
|
 |
We lowered the truck by 6"
to get it down on the ground |
 |
| |
|
|
 |
The truck was a blast to
drive, even with the fairly stock 350, it would pull the front wheels
off the ground |
 |
| |
|
|
 |
We built a tonneau cover
for the bed from marine plywood and burgundy vinyl, secured with hinges
and hood locks. |

This '58 came in green...
