I have always wanted an airplane nose art style picture on the rear panel of my rod. Yesterday Beverly (my better half) said that if I left the rod at home today and took her car to work instead then she would see what she could do.
Here's what I traded a bumpy very uncool ride in a suzuki vitara for. To say I am pleased is an understatment (not with the drive in the vitara!!!) She has sat out in the baking sun for pretty much all day too design and get this finished for me, she then had a go at some pin striping on the deck lid.
Bearing in mind that she has never done any pin striping before , and that she was using a normal brush I think its pretty good.

Edited to alter pic size (hopefully!!)
That looks pretty bang on to me mate, often when people paint girls they end up with the face of a Yorkshire coal miner for some reason.
Looks like you may be having several uncool rides to work, whilst she does some more stripes...LOL

Thanks for the comments , she really wasn't happy with the idea of me posting the pics. I think she's feels better about it now that she has read the replies.
Tim, what sort of stuff do you want for Billing, Bev seemed quite interested. Pm me if you like mate.
Tony, I don't think I can stand another trip in the vitara..LOL. Besides theres a long bed stepside in the drive that is crying out for some striping, and I can't use it as the mot is out at the moment.
Dave, yep already onto that one mate, just checked out some kits and brushes. Apparently she want's to get good at it ready for when I get the Dodge out again. If she isn't good at it by then , then she never will be ...........Lol.

Thats a yes Dale. I will have a go but dont expect too much at first as I have never done them before either mate so we will have to do some experimenting and see what we come up with. We will need better weather than this too, cause I dont like the rain much.
Beverly.
