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

"The Master of Flame" is a pretty good slogan.

 

This was my Dad's buisness when I was growing up in the 50's in Vancouver BC , so I copied his door logo from old pics. He LOVED it!

 

VERY cool to watch a sign painter letter!

 

This was revealed today for the first time in probably 40 years hiding under paint.

 

How about door, fender, quater, piller art:

In SoCal: Can someone recommend a painter who can do some faux patina lettering on my pickup doors?

 

Yes, I can.....(check your PM's)


speaking of which....I did this last week on my buddy's '53 Chebby Panel he uses for his chopper shop's parts chaser...

 

My customer had his tree service done on his doors by lucky b design. He even sanded them to match the look of the paint in the truck. And he lettered a sweet little sign for me too.

 

..original 1948 truck lettering on my Ford,...talked with previous owner last Fall, it was orig. his dad's truck; then given to him; then he took his dad's first name/initials off; hence, no first name.

Nickle, ive spotted that car around town many times and wondered the history of it

 

I did some lettering today. Far from perfect, but done by hand.



The slogans are inspired by vintage advertisemenst from the tire company that used this truck from 1947 to 1964.





I can't wait to get them back on the truck.

 

Here's one I did last week.

 

They cut that Impala up.

 

Saw today at the NW nats..

 

What kind of diesel do you have in that old Chevy?

 

Its not mine but it has a 24 v alve, twin turbo Cummins. It's a Chevy 1 ton longhorn converted to 4 wheel drive. Quite a bit of impressive fab work.
