Art & Inspiration The **OFFICIAL** door lettering thread

It Seems that this trend gets stronger and stronger and people are finding some unique ideas to express themselves and or a business, real or imagined ..

I'll start off with a few I've seen over the last few months

 

Even the 56 Chevy guys are joining in now

 

cool

 

Unless it's truly a commercial vehicle or a strip car, I can't stand the lettering on the door trend.

yuck.

 

I Like It , trend or not...

 

"GUILTY YOUR HONOR" It's called 'Express yourself'. I hand lettered and patinized the signs on the white and blue '56 Chevy for John out of Houston. Fuzzy's Welding and Fabrication. Yes, he is a welder/fabricator. It's fresh paint done on wed. and thursday this week for it's Goodguys Debut. The name Fuzzy's is an inside joke but the phone # has a real meaning to the owner. Lots of people at the show liked the 'LOOK' and talked to me about doing work on their rides, and most are legitimate business names and some are used commercially to promote a business.

Mine is all original from the city of Seattle Engineering Department.

 

How about the green one behind it? Anymore pictures of your work?

 

I assume you mean this one ?

 

Yep, thanks. I admire the work of a good 'striper or sign painter.

 

Let's see more!!

 

Me too , I like to see people being creative instead of belly button cars

I was lucky enough to get Ian 'Big Boss Man' to letter up my truck a year or so ago.

Might be too 'cutsey' for some but the name refers to my 56 and was chosen by my 7 year old daughter.

And when she says......
