i found a pic of my t-maxx shell painted
this was two shells cut and made to look welded together and rusted out.

found updated pics, this is how my car look just before it went to the junk yard



this car was painted by myself and daughters, just grab a brush/ marker or can and paint away

Wow...that is cool. Looks like a bad acid trip. <LOL> Did you get a lot of reaction in the car, either negative or positive?

Love the two bodies "welded" together. Very creative.

sometime i would get 2 or 3 people a month stop me to get my picture with the car. while driving on the roads cars would pull up along side me and take my picture. i would get recognized at new places because people had seen me in my car. i have also had a dyed mohawk for about 15 years so between my car and i, we were easy to spot. i was able to be the first "multi Colored" car registered in Vermont. I never got the chance to see if i could register it as an "art car". I never got pulled over or stopped by police. once at a road block a cop chuckled and asked if i had the artwork on my registration, i smiled and said yes, It kind of floored him. I miss Lucy very much, my girls miss her too.
