How many Hot Rod art collectors do we have on the HAMB?

I dunno Bluto - do scale models count? I have this 1:5/8 scale - has Vespa scooter motor and yes it runs and drives....

 

Here's a few that I have on the walls right now. Here's Von Franco's original Orbital Tiki. One by Mcphail, then Max Grundy, followed by Norwell. The last one is a Stanley Mouse sketch that I have at the framers as I type this. I need to get pics of the entire room with all of the other stuff.

 

Im trying to expand my collection to more than a handful of pieces

This is one of my favorites done by some hamb-er named General Gow ...

 

Okay, back on topic it is for me - a Bob McCoy original sign from Bonneville....

 

Hey ACME, that is an awesome Machinists tool chest stack! We have a 1936 Gerstner box ,a great find ,glad to have it.

Thanks to everyone who has posted. Some of your art collections are really cool.
I have a modest collection of auto-related ceramic "art" things that I have made, including decorative tiles, clocks, lamps, vases and mugs. I design them, make an original, cast a plaster mold, and make, glaze, & fire them in my kiln as a hobby. Here's a few I have around the house:

 

Being an artist, I was born with an art addiction. Unfortunately, that usually means that you are poor too! But I love to trade. Got a couple original pieces and whole ton of prints, but I'm throwing this out to the other artists on here. LETS DO SOME TRADING! Got me an original max grundy that way, some tidwell stuff and tattoo work from Scot Winskye! Lets keep it going.

 

Thanks

 

You got it Doc.......... and I'll share your Grabowski stuff with Flat top bob. Hahaha.

 

Can't get enough!

 

Just some of my stuff, some McPhail of course and yes all of this is the originals except a couple weesner lithos. I have a simon watts, larry fleming, willy fisher, ramirez and loads of mcphail.

 

a few more, and then I'm done showing.

 

Pleeese talk Dennis into printing more of the Kustom City poster!

 

There is some great stuff in here. Very cool.

 

Yep, I have a collection of Lowbrow and Hot Rod art. Some Aussie and some American artist pieces.

 

please note that there is a major collection of art, art auction, and actual artists from all over at the Vintage Torque Fest. The reason this is such a big part of the show.......because it is always the favorite part of Greaserama, Lonestar Round Up, and Viva Las Vegas. We will be auctioning off an ORIGINAL Weesner at our show.

If you are interested in being a phone bidder - contact me.

Ever go to Kustom Lane Gallery?

 

Hey Dankyd, Yes I've been to Kustom Lane Gallery in Melbourne. But unfortunately I don't get their often enough because I live in Brisbane. If you live in Melbourne your a lucky man, because we don't have anything like that here in Queensland.

 

Never actually been there... only in spirit. (I have some paintings there.) Didn't realize you were in Brisbane, hope everything is going well.
