This image took nearly 7 hours to create and I wasn’t sure I would ever get it to turn out right.

Just finally finished it...and I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out.

I use aircraft paint stripper to get the paint off the cement. Should have just put down some old furniture pads to get the mess.....

I don't know, kinda like the blue driveway..

 

[GTS Dave]

Here comes the wind

Is that burrito 'wind'?

 

[dartnabout]

I thought it was Steve McQueen

 

[Ddaddy]

That is Paul Newman , I think...

Steve McQueen.

Well I won free tickets to qualifying for the Indy 500 tomorrow but it's forecast for 100 percent all day rain so they bumped it to tomorrow evening so now I can't go

 

[dukeboy440]

Politics aside, I find this funny as hell

 

[Mopar Tim]

Steve McQueen.

Of course, Stupid me Old blue Eyes...
That's what I said!!!

 

[Unconventional]

Well that sucks .. No pun intended

Where did Steve McQueen get the Triumph in the middle of Germany during WWII to escape on? Just one of those goofy questions.

BMW wasn't it? Nope, a Triumph T6

 

[Unconventional]

Nooo .. Triumph .. I recognized it the very first time I saw The Great Escape and even at my then young age I was like Where did he find that?

 

[Unconventional]

It must have belonged to a German citizen fan of "imported" bikes

"I'm not gonna ride one of those Boxer POS to jump that fence .. NFW!" When Beemers were kinda like 2 wheeled tractors

 

[Unconventional]

Dd .. The windows are tinted so dark you can't see the fishes swimming around in there

LeMans special...

 

[Tooljunkie]

Been searching. Only one supplier so far for wheel openings.

 

[Ddaddy]

Ok, I’m done with images for today. Was a productive time I think, and I created a few good ones that are keepers.

Are you talking about the tubs?

 

[Tooljunkie]

Are you talking about the tubs?

No, the wheel opening got modified,he used what looks like conduit pipe and shaped metal to fit it. Looks like ***. The shape from side to side is quite different. The original lip is flat,now its rounded. So either i cut it all off and attempt something on my own or buy a pair of expensive panels.

Wonder what hoppy would want to cut 4” out around back wheel openings on the parts car....
Dumb idea.
Freight would kill it.
