I've carved these two huge tiki's over the last couple of years. Sadly, they went to their new owners without me having a chance to get some quality pictures. Could anybody photoshop them into a 'tiki' or tropical background ??? Thanks...........Tikipaul
Tiki's are from the surfing side of hot rodding..the low wagons & panels used to haul the surf boards would often have tikis hanging from there mirrors...they are mainly just something that bled over from the surfing culture..the same way nose art from WWII planes drifted over to hot rodding.
Those are outstanding work my friend. I love the tiki stuff and these are as nice as I have ever seen. Great talent and *** kickin designs. Thanx for sharing your art with us. Knocked out in Nebraska! ~Sololobo~
in ww2 there were a lot of soldiers in the pacific ocean. they came home and became hot rodders. simple enough, eh? by the way, those are bad ***!!!
