A bit of this and that from here and there, can't recall where I found all of them

Robert Williams (kulture artist) had one impressive collection of German WW1 helmets Via: MC Art Lettered in the Von Dutch style of obvious humor... love it! From Mr Jalopy 1908 Indian Torpedo Tank Racer This image was on Pixdaus, but i don't recognize the car maker. What struck me as worthy of posting was the winch, bolted on front bumper and rope... why? I love this funky can and bottle opener

the new movie, Planet 51, has revisioned what 1950's cars would look like as hover craft, very cool!

The white area in the middle of the torso lights up with a green plasma display, see bottom photo Above: the finished worked zoomed in on... below, a day or two earlier

Hot rodding's artist, Kenny Youngblood was at SEMA and for a donation was personnalizing Challenger and Camaro prints

Kenny started young in drag racing, at age 12 he went to the San Gabriel drag strip and got hooked. He has built, co-owned, driven, crewed and crew chiefed on dragsters and slingshots.His most recognizable design adorns the sides of the ZZ Top Eliminator 34 Ford coupe, the pattern for the interlocking logo ZZ .My earliest find of his art was in the front of a Hot Rod magazine around 1992, when

The "wow" works of House of Kolor artists at their SEMA booth

The Zoot Zooter, 1937 Packard convertible. Looks a lot better than original packards for the most part, I like the lack of hood ornament, and the addition of the bumperettes on the bottom of the front fenders.

East Coast Artie, extraordinary pinstriper, Surfside Beach South Carolina

I think displaying the tools is important, it always interests me at least... to see what the pros use The travel case below: the next work will go on this, wish I'd gotten back to see how it turned out Below: is there a underlying theme to the pinstriping? No, but the music he's listening to at the time influences the lines

It isn't possible we're likely to see anyone else from the good old days of hot rodding making palm frond shady hats... only photos in old Hot Rod magazines from the early 1950's Above, my favorite car trophy Above, the trunk is for all the normal stuff he carries around but didn't want to be out in the open, detracting from the old hot rod aesthetic Triple the cool factor, Plymouth, woodie, and
