I love these from an old R&C feature:

 

Did Somebody say FIRE?

 

The police tape around the leadsled is appropriate.....it's a crime what happened to that poor car.

i THINK THAT TRADITIONAL FLAMES SHOULD NOT RUN ANY FURTHER BACK THAN THE DOOR

Here's my old 53 chevy truck. We did them, I like them.

One with hubcaps, and one without caps and front bumper when it was first finished.

 

I used to do some of flame jobs on Hot Rods and Bikes around this area, unfortunatly I used to drink to ,........ in 1978 I had just painted this 71 Charger as a daily driver, Black with Black window tint ( when it was still legal ). one Friday night my buddy Mark and I got back from "The Club" and all the way back to his house we slured about doing flames on it when we got back,......... we got out the supply's and a couple pints of Jack,........ 7:00 A.M. the next morning this and some killer hangovers is what we had to show for it. (oops that was the "before shot")

Fast forward to 2005, A kid at church asks me about how to do a flame job on his bike,....... I start explaining it to him ,...... when I am sure he ain't getting anything I am saying, I tell him to bring it over and leave it a couple days,......

Almost forgot,....... a picture of my son in a pedal car I did for him years and years ago,....... can you see a general theme here ?

 

I painted this eight years ago- under some street lights outside a body-shop I used to work at... it started out with a fifties high school kid simple flame job that ended up a little out of control... I hated the red flames and just started putting more flames over the top till it looked right to me...

after I put the blue flames on this dude with a Anglia drove up and said 'sarcastically' ... "Now all you need are some psychedelic green flames down the side" and did his stoner laugh and drove off... haha... I thought it was a great idea-

I used to paint everything in sight with flames when I was younger-

now I'm just not into them as much unless they're full on KANDY.

I loved the flames on Tom Otis's roadster. I will have to dig for a picture and post it.

 

My old '51 merc...I miss that car!

 

Flames and truck look really nice!!!

 

Some 'untraditional' vinylcut flames made at work which I slapped on my wagon...

 

Thanks everyone, these all help a lot.
