You don't need me to tell you it's the Galpin Ford sponsored "Back Up Pick Up" unusual wheelstander, but you can't read that this is Lions in 1971
Briggs Cunningham at Le Mans 1950. Who is Briggs? race car driver and museum owner, and a sports car legend as he was one of the first in the 1950's to go all the way to try and win the European races as an American, like Reventon did after him, and Shelby after Reventon http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/03/le-monster-of-briggs-cunningham.html

Earl's BMW Z4 artwork. Spectacular piece of rolling artwork



This side shows Santa Barbara, and the other side shows Willow Springs. In the above, I just dig how the sun is represented by the BMW badge surrounded by orange, yellow and red. Beautiful




Can you make out the oil cap? Its next to the red stripes. Very cool that certain underhood parts are painted into the painting on the hood, like the throttle bodies and vortec supercharger

Ain't that awesome? The grey ribbon represents the racetrack at Willow Springs



you can start learning about the art on the car at http://www.myartcar.com/theconcept.html and for more, read http://www.myartcar.com/indetail.html because to learn what the details are, and where and why, is truly amazing.
