    When I opened this thread, I was going to comment that, "No car looks better with flames, than a '40 Ford." The people, who posted pics, proved my point. All the other cars are wishing they could look that good.

    Yes it's an Epa Traktor (Walmart tractor) I built it for my so he could drive it from his 15 year, two gearboxes max speed 20mp according to the law, but it was a bit quicker, and now 25 year's later he bought it back for his son. Time has left some scars, but the plan is to repaint it this summer.

    I take no credit for anything more than loving 'em.

    turns out lacquer thinner will burn off before actually burning your skin

    ( yes there was a fair amount of PBR consumed in the making of this image)

    Here are a couple i did.
    My current truck. The scheme is a direct rip off of Bad Bobs Merc because i loved the layout on his car..
    The bike tins were a job i did for a guy this past fall.
    Candy tangerine with silver and outlined in lime green.

    There's more but no pics unfortunately.
    I know it's an older thread, but still cool.

    Ever wonder about the origin/inspiration of the first flame paint jobs? Who's was the first?
