    Ah, back when race cars were as cool to look at as they were to watch!. That's the kind of stuff that influenced me as a kid, and thats why I do what I do now for a living. I don't care what you do, your not going to get that feel with ****in' vinyl. Fantastic work!.

    Big Nick, I am seeing many signs of this style coming around soon, so get ready to enjoy more work! Here is a job I just did, inspired by the same era. We were going to include psychedelics, but there wasn't space for everything he already wanted, and I did not want it more cluttered.

    I have another job coming in a few months that will include op art, psychedelics, and the popular paint effects of that time.

    from so cal

    Hey,

    The shot of that '68 Cuda sure brought back some cool mammaries!
    My first car was a '67 Cuda Formula "S" 383. It didn't have that
    "psyco" paint, though!
    Man, I hope this era of signwrightin' and paint are on the come back
    trail, I'm sick of black primer!

    S****ey Devils C.C.
