    The top's great. That tank totally rules. I want one of those on my car--somewhere.

    Has anybody upholstered their car with black velvet paintings? Maybe with some clear vinyl over the top? How 'bout a black velvet Virgin Mary or crying Jesus as a headliner?

    Sorry, I was raised a southern catholic. My kid life was filled with GREAT religious art. And guilt. Lots of guilt.

    Nice work, I just checked out your website and your work is awsome. I have always admired people that have the skill and patience to spray flake. The virgen de guadalupe piece is sick.

    Almost done with this thing...The body is the reverse pattern of the top. This is lightly reduced high build "working" clear that I have to block like it's primer. Then it gets 3 coats of super glossy show clear, a cut and polish and then it's BYE BYE BABY!

    No full pictures yet, the car is near stock height and still has big fat blackwall radials and stock hubcaps on it. I....I just....can't stand looking at it like that....

    Another beautiful piece of artwork Mr. Conder....I wish I could afford you someday to paint my "T" roadster.

    Good news Royal! Thanks to the economy and the ridiculously high cost of living in California... I've cut my overhead in half, reduced my shop rate to 65 per and now offer poodle grooming in addition to everything else! Get Fi Fi in here!
