Drag car, hot rod, gasser, signage thread

Here's mine. Originally done by John Burr in Pasadena in 1969, replicated perfectly by Phil Whetstone (Philly the greek on here) in 2010 after the restoration of the car.

I never liked 57s without the side trim but i like this one, i think the lettering and color make it.
