Thanks! They are a real challenge sometimes, most are bad blurry copies with warped perspective and serious color fading issues.

I like doing the old Esso tiger ones a lot since they tend to be in bad shape but the images are simple and vibrant. I have a bunch of techniques down now for restoring them. After a few dozen, I’ve gotten decently good at it.

Here’s one I just finished a little bit ago.

Gold Duster?

Yes a duster with the "gold duster" package.

The decals on the fender that say "gold duster " have that really cool cartoon script. Why can't new cars be this cool.

I had the misfortune to do some work in Macon GA a few years back. Was there for a few months. Anyway there was this bbq joint we'd go into about once a week. We walk in and the the hostess would say, " Is it just y'all two?". Used to crack me up.
