O.k., here it is...What do ya'll think about this for the design? I think it's gonna be dark burgandy print on an ash colored shirt (kind of a really pale grey with little flecks of a slightly darker grey).....
Unkl...you would have to ask 29EHV8...it's his motor. Which reminds me...if I go with this design, I owe 29EHV8 a shirt! Is the fuel line thing gonna be a problem for everybody? Didn't mean to turn this particular thread into a spam thread....sorry. I'll move all the info to the classifieds after I get a little feedback. Thanks for the help and feedback, everyone!
Ok Unkl I'll tell you why.The car has a 3 carb setup too.I was in the middle of puttin the 5 carb setup back on when we took the pic. Barnett,kill shirt.I'll take the freebie for sure but I'll hafta get more off of you too.The colors sound will be perfect.....Shiny
Whizzerick...that looks great! I'm gonna send you a p.m. And yes...I'm am serious about getting the shirts made and sold. I'll post something in the classifieds by the end of the weekend, if not a lot sooner.
The four exhaust pipes could be confusing. Are we talking 6 or 4? A 6 into 2 would be cool. I have so many image sif these, I'll have ot send them to you form home though. ALso check fordsix.com, they can hook you up with images tubo charged, Australian head, US block combinations that are absoluetly beautiful.
heres mine. i was thinking of using it as a shirt design, but i snoozed and losed. i could email it you for better quality of you want.
I'm (meaning my brother-in-law, the computer guy... ) in the process of changing the lettering to an oval format as suggested by Whizzerick. Should have shirts and posters and maybe stickers being printed by next week! Might go with a dark green print, instead, though. I like green...even before one of the locals proclaimed his complete disgust for it on vehicles. Haring...did you ever sell the van? I hope not. I woulda liked to have seen you finish it like that drawing you did. If you did sell it...what are you cruising these days?
Why not just draw the coolest inline motor you could possibly imagine? Bigger carbs,longer stacks,bigger pipes.

[/ QUOTE ] I haven't sold the van yet, but I've been trying. I think it's going up on eBay soon. I just can keep everything. I still have the '61 Futura and just about have enough pieces to start mocking together my '32 truck. I haven't shown any pictures here yet, but i will soon. I've actually been spending most of my time astride the 'ol Noteboom chopper. I think you should illustrate a fantasy 6-cyl engine, perhaps with a little creative tweaking so that it's not a Chevy, not a Ford, etc, so that everyone can own a shirt a not get hung up on the details.
Put me down for one XL at least, two if you make them on a something other than grey fleck. How about good ol white or black instead. maroon logo sounds cool. oh and I like your original design better without the oval! later
I don't have any details on this. I took it at the SoCal Speed Shop in Phoenix a year ago. It was in a '59(?) Ford pick-up. It had some of the sweetest sounding pipes I ever heard. It left such an impression on me that I'm considering a six for my next project.
