Suede palace at the Grand National Roadster show

















This is a great idea, setting up a display that mimics the hot rodders when they went to the dry lakes races
For another cool view of the above camping display, see this over at Justacargal:




This is one beaut of a car, it really irratates the hell out of me that the overhead lighting ruins the photos when the paint is so perfect and reflective

Terrific scallops, great color combo, and great bodywork for such flat panels.. not a wave or wiggle in sight

Artist Darrell Mayabb had a booth at the Grand National Roadster show, but didn't want any of his illustrations photographed


He'd have had a much better post, but as you'll see from his website, he's scared to death that you'll actually see any of his work large enough to enjoy it, unless you pay for it. Well, good luck with that philosophy.
This is just the most pathetic post for an artists work you'll ever see here. But few artists are such dumbasses as to keep you from seeing the work they are trying to sell. Just check out his website http://www.automotivegraffiti.com/galery_main_page.html and you'll probably agree.

The Triple Nickel roadster was at the grand National roadster show, and it looks to me like Von Dutch striped it





There's a bit of info about it here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum

Flamed (ghost flame in hood stripes) and pinstriped BMW roadster, not a bit shy about being good looking
