Shop!!! Mine are hanging in the house!!

41husk · September 26, 2011, 06:01:37 PM

mine are in the Mopad. I love the way they look aged and weatherd

Fred · September 27, 2011, 02:01:31 AM

Do 4 mopar hubcaps hanging on the wall count for anything?

41husk · September 27, 2011, 07:45:58 AM

Sure!!! I have one old plymouth with the boat hub cap, two 392 hemi valve covers and the top of a daytona nose cone on the wall. At this rate in a few years I will have an entire car on the wall

That was my appeal as well. And for $8 a pop, you can't go wrong.

That is a good price. I think I gave $10 a piece 2 years ago.

Here's some of my garage art. (Hope you don't mind if I post some too)

I did these airbrushed paintings on aluminum sheet. I had the Cobra painting signed by Carroll Shelby at Lime Rock, CT. I've done others but sold them since. These are all that's left.

U.S. Grand Prix poster 1977

Other stuff

i made this a few years ago from the back end of a VW karmann ghia coupe. made it for my daughters room but now it is in my office...

Alaskan_TA · September 27, 2011, 09:57:49 PM

Am I the only one here that has cheap & ugly garage art?

I'd love a seat like that in my garage but there's no time for sitting as I'm always tinkering under one car or another. Something always needs to be done.

What did you use for legs?

Fred · September 28, 2011, 05:10:57 PM

Whatever was at hand by the looks of it!

bajaherbie · September 28, 2011, 06:26:45 PM

good joke fred

i made the frame with my handy-dandy mig welder and 1x1 metal tubing and some plate for the feet on the legs. about $350 in paint job, tail light lenses and upholstry(sp?) work...

it seats two comfortably.

BrianShaughnessy · September 28, 2011, 06:39:18 PM

I got my old faded mural rusted decklid from Sinnamon hanging up.

No offence intended.

I was looking at was was collected underneath it and thought that's what it was balancing on.
As I said before, I love the seat, it looks great.

I'm really diggin this. Where did you get it?

Aero426 · September 30, 2011, 03:30:49 PM

I bought it on Ebay. The event program is more common. It has the same artwork that could be enlarged to 11 x 17 on a color copier.

Charger frig in shop, RT deck lid encroached on back porch

Made the tire table in my single days in the early 90s, it was removed from house living room as sacrificial part towards my relationship management........ and became part of shop living room

I dig the rare posters above, very nice........

Bobby Isaac poster published by Racing Pictorial magazine. The yellow block on the bottom was for imprinting of the track and event date.

This is a modern poster made from artwork used in a Talladega race bumper sticker in 1970.

Don't worry, it was a side swiped unusable door, all I need now is a rough old HEMI badge......

Sweet table made from a road or mag wheel! Might have to look into creating one of those or a similar one. I've seem some similar ones, just using a large wheel and different variations to it.

Road runner signs

Went to the "All American Car Show" yesterday and had a great time. The weather was perfect so everyone was there and there was plenty to be seen.
But best of all, I picked up some great garage art for my man cave.
The man cave sign will go on the outside of the garage door.

Only managed to take a couple of pics though as the camera batteries died on me. The Mrs. had to buy some new one's today.

"Decorating" my Workshop will begin soon, mostly with banners at first... below is a photoshopped image for planning purposes, and an example of a banner...

RIDELIKEHELL · April 02, 2012, 07:36:15 AM
