Not only is it a &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Rolls-Royce"&gt;Rolls-Royce&lt;/a&gt; covered in gold but its got a Hemi engine of epic proportions. This vintage 1970 &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Rolls-Royce"&gt;Rolls-Royce&lt;/a&gt; Silver Shadow had an "ordinary" 6.75-liter V8 swapped out for a 592 Hemi, complete with dual-stage nitrous system for a reported output of over 1,000 horsepower. The chrome engine that pops out of the hood might not be the Queens car since it take away from the usually-dominant classic grille, but the hand stitched leather-covered roll cage is both classy and safe at high speeds. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="423" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/pLHJv0979ZU" width="580"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/21/exceedingly-adequate-1040hp-hemi-powered-rolls-royce/"&gt;via&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2720947563902001580-5050610255107069895?l=artcar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/feeds/5050610255107069895/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2012/01/golden-dream-rolls-royce-with-hemi.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/5050610255107069895'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/5050610255107069895'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2012/01/golden-dream-rolls-royce-with-hemi.html' title='Golden Dream - Rolls Royce With a Hemi Engine'/><author><name>Costas Schuler</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh6.googleusercontent.com/-__hYbVr1Xs8/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/VbxC0zIwUxA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UM5vMzTeqxM/TyT7iFGqDMI/AAAAAAAAH6A/_0nFNJRYJEU/s72-c/golden-dream-rolls_royce_with_hemmy_art_car_central.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2720947563902001580.post-7975357588126077209</id><published>2012-01-27T08:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2012-01-27T12:31:09.508-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Boat'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Painted'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Germany'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pink'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Heavy Metal'/><title type='text'>One of the Biggest Pink Colored Freighter Ships on Earth - Contship Germany</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I think I found one the biggest &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Pink"&gt;pink colored&lt;/a&gt; freighter ships on earth called the "Contship Germany" owned by The CONTI-Group, one of the world's leading managing owners of container vessels and tankers.

They went looking for a small &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Sedan"&gt;sedan&lt;/a&gt; - or possibly a hatchback, preferably &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Australia"&gt;Australian&lt;/a&gt;-made, and definitely red; somewhere between $5000 and $10,000, and capable of supporting a two-ton rock  dropped on its roof. Can you imagine the look on the car salesmen face on the last point but after some negotiating, eventually agreed to sell the car for $7800.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Here is what the artist had to say about his work:&lt;/div&gt;&lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;i&gt;"Like most of my recent work, this piece is concerned with monuments and monumentality, but also with 'nature'; that implacable hard stuff. In the first instance I am using the stone as a tool; to change the shape of an object. But I also, as usual, want to make stone more light, more moveable, even if it is in a fairly horrible way - like a road accident.. I do not think the piece is humorous; even though it turns out to be. The kind of face painted on the real version will, of course, depend upon the shape of the stone, but it will in any case be placid, and neither 'realistic' nor cartoon-like. To my way of thinking if the stone is simply a stone without a face it becomes a gesture but with the face painted on it, the work develops a strange narrative. "&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I think they got rocking good deal on this &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Ford"&gt;ford festiva&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

But if you ask me I don't really know how the math works out on this one especially when you add three skates into the mix but the folks over at Chevy know something I don't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not to be out done by &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/2012/01/avis-getting-into-art-car-business-by.html"&gt;Avis Art Cars&lt;/a&gt;, Chevy commissioned three artists to paint their new Chevy Sonics as part of their Urban Art Series.  The series was sponsored by Chevy to bring together artists of different mediums.  More specifically they paired urban skaters with visual artists to give the "fuel efficient" Chevy Sonic an urban art makeover that would let the car feel more "coooooomfortable" in urban settings. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;In Part One&lt;/b&gt; the Chevy Sonic got the once over by Queens, New York, artist &lt;a href="http://amfiles.wordpress.com/"&gt;Alice Mizrachi&lt;/a&gt; who was paired up with pro skateboarders Rodney Torres and Eli Reed. Here is what we got, a Chevy with a cityscape wrapped around the car with Flushing Meadows Unisphere in Queens on the hood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7xX-QCaYJII/TwQRLBHioHI/AAAAAAAAHtA/IKzrWNSN5oA/s1600/2012-Chevrolet-Sonic-Urban-Art-Project-Pt-1-art-car-central.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Chevy Sonic Urban Art Car Central Part 1" border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7xX-QCaYJII/TwQRLBHioHI/AAAAAAAAHtA/IKzrWNSN5oA/s1600/2012-Chevrolet-Sonic-Urban-Art-Project-Pt-1-art-car-central.jpg" title="Chevy Sonic Urban Art Car Central Part 1" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Chevy Sonic Urban Art Car Part 1&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-V587pqKQrgk/TwSGRdamuSI/AAAAAAAAHtY/w0igDPsEv3c/s1600/2012-Chevrolet-Sonic-Urban-Art-Project-Pt-1-art-car-central_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Chevy Sonic Urban Art Car Central Part 1" border="0" height="666" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-V587pqKQrgk/TwSGRdamuSI/AAAAAAAAHtY/w0igDPsEv3c/s400/2012-Chevrolet-Sonic-Urban-Art-Project-Pt-1-art-car-central_2.jpg" title="Chevy Sonic Urban Art Car Central Part 1" width="580" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Chevy Sonic Urban Art Car Part 1&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="325" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/_BS4bnAV3rw" width="580"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;In Part Two&lt;/b&gt; Brooklyn tattoo artist &lt;a href="http://www.johnreardontattoos.com/"&gt;John Reardon&lt;/a&gt; to put down some fresh ink on a Chevy Sonic, inspired by Queens, NY native Luis Tolentino showing off his skateboarding skills.

in United Kingdom for the first time has unveiled its exclusive art car available now for rent and one &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Alpha%20Romeo"&gt;Alfa Romeo&lt;/a&gt; car you really don't want to trash. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their art cars were created as part of a European-wide Facebook competition run by Avis to encourage members of the public to design their own art car. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There were more than 1,000 entries from across six European countries including the UK and the winner was Andrea-Victoria Halbroth aka &lt;a href="http://vectorink.tumblr.com/"&gt;Dea Vectorink&lt;/a&gt; (pictured above), an illustrator and tattoo apprentice who was born in London and currently living in Germany. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her art car design will join two other art cars designed by Si Scott and French born animation expert McBess, creating the first ever public art cars to be available across Europe. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Avis is the first car rental company to join the art car movement, embodying the postmodernist philosophy that anyone can be an artist. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recognized to have started in the 1960s and 1970s, the Art Car movement has recently seen a huge revival with high profile car manufacturers and artists getting involved like &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/"&gt;Art Car Central&lt;/a&gt;

Its a 6, count them 6 wheeled monster Off-Road Mercedes mutant vehicle beast built for the long awaited Mad Max 4: Fury Road, that is going into production next spring in Namibia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Its basically a 80's Mercedes mounted on semi truck frame and if that's the future to come then I am going to start making preparations to convert my &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/2009/05/mercedes-pens-art-car-at-maker-faire.html"&gt;Mercedes Pens Art Car&lt;/a&gt; into it's close cousin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am guessing this 6-Wheeled Mercedes beauty belongs to some war lord, head honcho, bad guy who loves to ride in luxury while ordering his mutant henchmen to kill people and destroy small enclaves. It also looks like it has enough gas tanks to last a while since there aren't many places to pull over and get gas in the future. I am definitely looking forward to seeing this movie just to see this Mutant Vehicle in action. &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/"&gt;Art Car Central&lt;/a&gt; is proud to display and report on such exuberant mutations of Mercedes Benz cars and certainly puts this &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/2008/04/4x4-mercedes.html?m=0"&gt;4x4 Mercedes&lt;/a&gt; to shame.

He was with "Doctors without borders" and the owner of a 25 year old Volkswagen Beetle wreck, found at the bottom of an Islamabad street waiting for a final trip to the scrapyard. He hired an intensive care specialist who restored the car to full health, and then hired Alhabib Ejaz, an artist to paint in the local style known as "&lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/2009/01/incredible-pakistanany-art-cars-hit.html"&gt;truck art&lt;/a&gt;".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His Dream was to travel to Paris by road with a beautifully painted VW art car covered in a psychedelic array of flowers, waterfalls and the faces of famous Pakistanis. He wanted this 6,000 mile trip to be a way to show the world the "softer side" of Pakistan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So he embarked on his art on wheels tour, a trip that took about two weeks fully equipped with a roof rack and plenty of spare parts to make the grueling trip across that part of the world. For more info you can check out his &lt;a href="http://artonwheelstour.canalblog.com/"&gt;blog&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Traveling by Foxy, as Beetles are affectionately known in Pakistan, Loos payed homage to a local motoring cult. Dozens of well-maintained Beetles ply the streets. (His, a cool grey, a Betsy, a proud 1967 model.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Beetle came to Pakistan in the 1950s with army officers and bureaucrats returning from postings abroad. The appeal has endured – Mubashir Hasan, a finance minister from the 1970s, still drives his around Lahore. Romano Karim of Islamabad's VW club estimates about 500 "Foxies" travel Pakistan's roads. "Cute, quirky, cheap spare parts – it's the ideal car," he says.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;About Alhabib Ejaz&lt;/h2&gt;Alhabib Ejaz was the local truck artist who was hired to transform Foxy Shahzadi into one of the most beautiful VW art cars in town for its long journey to Paris. Alhabib Ejaz is an artist who has devoted his entire life to painting those amazing &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/2009/01/incredible-pakistanany-art-cars-hit.html"&gt;Pakistani art trucks&lt;/a&gt; with crazy paint jobs and doilies hanging from the windows and as you can see he did ana amazing job on Foxy. What I like the most about Alhabib is the fact that he rocks the social media scene with &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/57326263@N08/"&gt;flikr&lt;/a&gt;, a youtube video and two  &lt;a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/alhabib-ejaz-truck-art/108231165884330"&gt;facebook&lt;/a&gt; accounts to promote his amazing art. This whole thing happened back in 2009 but it deserves a big mention here on &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/"&gt;Art Car Central&lt;/a&gt;. Please check the Alhabib Ejaz's video below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-CExHtvKHA4c/TvrdZ9fOrRI/AAAAAAAAHoo/tssrc_4-foc/s1600/Alhabib_Ejaz_VW_Art_Car_Central_01.jpg" style="clear: left;

Howrad Vines has been a regular feature at all the &lt;a href="http://artcarfest.com/"&gt;artcar fests&lt;/a&gt; here in the San Franscisco Bay Area and especially at the How Berkeley Can You Be. This art car was spotted by Murilee Martin who posted it on &lt;a href="http://jalopnik.com/5506064/1969-ford-mustang"&gt;Jalopnic&lt;/a&gt; and took a ton of photos of this fine car parked in Alameda, California.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unfortunately this beauty has fallen on hard times like a lot of older arts do and was seen again by Murilee at a local pick and pull some years later. The story is the same, first the most ardent Mustang fanatics will strip away all the good parts, then once its down to "bare bones" no pun intended, it will then be taken down to the crusher for its final journey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not sure what to call this art car but it definitely crosses over into a few genres. I think its a combination between burning man, mad max, prehistoric, Wrath of Khan, nack to the future, caveman feel to it. Its almost like it belongs to a prehistoric caveman hoarder with a glue gun. I am sure the guy is very nice, probably and accountant or something who goes to burning man every year.&amp;nbsp; I would love to meet the owner of this mystery mustang art car, so if you or anyone know more about this art car please contact us at &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/"&gt;Art Car Central&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

Armin Ciesielski, Peter Brakel and Walter Willer who work for a German company called &lt;a href="http://www.giganten-aus-stahl.de/en/component/content/article/6/60-mercedes-300-slr.html"&gt;Giganten aus Stahl&lt;/a&gt; (Giants of Steel) decided one day to recreate one of the greatest  cars ever made and set out to make a life size mercedes art car. The three sculptors went through thousands of pieces of scrap metal for their recycled art car masterpiece and spent several months cutting and putting about 2200lbs of it all together. Although Ciesielski claims he could rebuild any car out of crap metal, he admits this particular project was more difficult due to the car's detailed intricacy and the work that went into making the car’s engine identical to the original.

GOOD is teaming up with Brookside to “Give Back” to one nonprofit with the sweet treat of a $5,000 grant. Please vote for our application &lt;a href="http://brooksidefoods.maker.good.is/projects/militaryartcar" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2&gt;The Idea&lt;/h2&gt;By pairing artists with U.S. Marines we seek to create a mobile message that carries the stories and experiences of combat into diverse populations. We aim to eliminate artificial cultural boundaries by offering a platform for honest and open discussion about war and peace. &lt;a href="http://www.doartfoundation.org/2011/12/05/" target="_new"&gt;http://www.doartfoundation.org/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h2 id="the-idea"&gt;The Plan&lt;/h2&gt;The mobile narrative created by Active Duty Service Members will be toured to Music Festivals, VA Hospitals, and Public Schools. Showcasing the creative expression of fighting men and women multiplies the opportunity for service members to make real connections with the citizens whose freedoms they fight for. The $5000 Award will allow The DoArt Foundation to retain Principal Artist Bobby Furst for his contributions, in addition to providing the much needed funds to purchase the vehicle upon which the soldiers will tell their story. The Dec. 14th Awarding is ideally timed for the commencement of this project, when access to financial resources are most crucial.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2720947563902001580-7255838865873069139?l=artcar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/feeds/7255838865873069139/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/12/military-art-car-project-needs-your.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/7255838865873069139'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/7255838865873069139'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/12/military-art-car-project-needs-your.html' title='Military Art Car Project Needs Your Vote'/><author><name>Costas Schuler</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh6.googleusercontent.com/-__hYbVr1Xs8/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/VbxC0zIwUxA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RmFRJx2IU6Q/Tt67OnKNwLI/AAAAAAAAHH8/xJi1Ls4L5Ck/s72-c/Military-Art-Car-Project_art_Car_Central.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2720947563902001580.post-2983658611789205153</id><published>2011-11-19T13:41:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2011-11-19T14:05:09.634-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bicycle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sculptured'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='UK'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='London'/><title type='text'>Sitting on the Fence - Locked Gate Artist Riding on the Locked Gate Bike of Indecision</title><content type='html'>Here is a guy Artist &lt;a href="http://www.saatchionline.com/art/Sculpture-Found-Objects-The-Locked-Gate/289849/1297821/view"&gt;Stephen Williams&lt;/a&gt; who took the term "sitting on a fence" literally with his whimsical creation, a bike made from two antique locked gates called "The Locked Gate". Williams admits that even though his masterpieces may be considered brilliant are far from practical but make the most of the funny side of his weird and wonderful imagination. In my opinion life was made just a tad more brilliant and sunny today through this wonderful and highly impractical fence art bike.Via &lt;a href="http://inhabitat.com/artist-stephen-williams-creates-a-quirky-bike-from-two-antique-locked-gates/"&gt;Inhabitat&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

Archaeologist will study these bone cars and wonder what these creatures looked like and whether or not they were gas or diesel powered. I am talking about these breath taking bone art cars were created by artist Jitish Kallat as part of the "India Contemporary" exhibition in the GEM Museum of Contemporary Art in The Hague, the Netherlands called Collindonthus. They were made with resin with remarkable detail in which they represent skeletal remains.You never know reality could be closer than you think.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

He took inspiration from Star Wars Episode III Jedi Starfighter, the X-Wing Fighter, and the Rebel Blockade Runner but later realized that he had chosen the Snowspeeder's color scheme. The astromech droid was made from an old lampshade that had been in the "droid parts" box for twenty-odd years and named J3-T7. He also used two different fonts for the lettering, "Engli-Besh" by &lt;a href="http://www.erikstormtrooper.com/index.html" target="_blank"&gt;Erikstormtrooper&lt;/a&gt;, and "Imperial Code" by Dan Zadorozny at &lt;a href="http://www.iconian.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Iconian Fonts&lt;/a&gt;.The chances of it ever be seen again are very small but a replacement art car is in the works.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

His real name was Stephen Douglas Hooper was a New Jersey-based sculptor was often seen riding his hoop creations around east village and beyond were he became well known. There are simply not enough words to describe Hoop and his amazing art cars, so I figure 30 of his art car creations should do the trick. Hoop definitely falls under the "Extreme Awesomeness" category, so may he and his art cars live in eternal Awesomeness here on &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/"&gt;art car central &lt;/a&gt; for eternity or until the internet crashes and burns. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" height="350" id="FiveminPlayer" width="580"&gt;&lt;param name='allowfullscreen' value='true'/&gt;&lt;param name='allowScriptAccess' value='always'/&gt;&lt;param name='movie' value='http://embed.5min.com/517156919/'/&gt;&lt;param name='wmode' value='opaque' /&gt;&lt;embed name='FiveminPlayer' src='http://embed.5min.com/517156919/' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' width='560' height='345' allowfullscreen='true' allowScriptAccess='always' wmode='opaque'&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

I was honored to meet Heather last Saturday who came to my garage sale while visiting here sister who happens to live down the street from my house. We started talking about art cars and told me about her Gremlin art car that no longer works but has taken a whole new life as permanent garden art car in Sausalito CA. Its completely covered in toys and dolls and plants that have almost engulfed this amazing art car. For those of us with aging art cars on their last leg, this could be the next evolutionary step in the life of these wonderful works of art.

He has driven his car to art car festivals throughout Washington, and regularly services his car to keep it running for everyday use.“What I like about it is that it makes me laugh,” Lockner says. “Wherever I go, when I drive it, it makes me laugh.”Lockner has owned five or six art cars over the years, and currently has another that’s a work in progress. His newest car project is a 1975 Gremlin that Lockner hopes to turn into a kinetic sculpture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.neighborhoodnotes.com/news/2011/08/portland_art_cars_to_be_featured_on_ifcs_portlandia_photo_gallery/"&gt;via &lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2720947563902001580-3054904682781072485?l=artcar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/feeds/3054904682781072485/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/10/fin-car-by-bill-lockner.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/3054904682781072485'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/3054904682781072485'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/10/fin-car-by-bill-lockner.html' title='The Fin Car by Bill Lockner'/><author><name>Costas Schuler</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh6.googleusercontent.com/-__hYbVr1Xs8/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/VbxC0zIwUxA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-iXdSRANLaLk/TpRxuWNirsI/AAAAAAAAG7c/93410mfkJHQ/s72-c/the_fin_car_art_car_central.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2720947563902001580.post-2679149501027986285</id><published>2011-09-05T00:25:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-05T00:25:41.664-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Old British ArtCar</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: left;

into one of our events, this was Cima Racing's entry into Home2Rome 2010. We generally see more General Lees in Europe than the US probably because of the politically correct thing that surrounds the Confederate Battle Flag in the US these days. The chances of an Italian throwing a brick through the window of a General Lee in Europe is marginally less than in New York for instance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This car was originally sourced from a tv props department for a very famous TV programme about cars. I haven't seen the episode so I'm going on witness statements but the car was bought within budget (£150/$275) on the condition that it was made into a General Lee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is surprising is that this car was not at all perfect. You'd think that a 15 year old Lexus would be in fairly good condition, but not this car. It had a bad time getting through its MOT (yearly UK safety check), and despite the aerial on the roof, the CB didn't work in the slightest. Car to car communication involved shouting loudly whilst the windows were down (thats if they would go down). It also had other issues so I'm told.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The theme is obviously quite simple but it's important to be accurate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I don't mean the 01 or the Battle Flag on the roof, I mean, it needs a Daisy Duke. You see, any old person can paint their Lexus orange, and put a number on the side and put an accurate Confederate Flag on the roof.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But what sets this car out is the Daisy Duke it was sporting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This ArtCar is for all the Daisy Dukes out there!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By Justin Clements &lt;a href="http://www.streetsafari.com/index.esp"&gt;Street Safari&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Original posted on &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/"&gt;Art Car Central&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;

You see we never like meeting local cops on the events, cops mean trouble for the most part. We simply want to pass through a town, not get arrested and locked up, waiting for "Fair Trials Abroad" to come to our rescue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The team (who built Thunderbird 4 the following year) took a picture of a real Italian Polizia Tipo and copied it absolutely perfectly. Graphics were copied, they even had a blue light on the top (highly illegal), siren, they even dressed up as Italian cops.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you saw this in the corner of your eye, it really did grab you, in a bad bad way. It was only once you focussed on the two faux Policemen larking around that your heart would drop from it's 300 beats per second and you'd remember "thank god, it's only Team Maestro Masters".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has to be said that we did get revenge on them - they did not want to be seen one morning when some real Italian cops would be in attendance. Copying foreign cops probably isn't wise, and the Maestro Masters team were bricking it. But we assured them, that nothing untoward would happen to them. In all honesty, we didn't know what would happen to them, we just knew that we were safe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But after they had spent 3 days scaring the life out of us, we were willing to take the chance they wouldn't be arrested.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In a wonderful twist, the cops actually loved the Tipo, and apologised that literally, 2 months ago they retired their identical Fiat Tipo Polizia car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was an unexpected high point, with a significant low point to come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The car was seized in Rome and dragged to a police station. When the team went to collect the car they were promptly arrested and interrogated for a few hours. Only after chatting up a hot Italian woman, who happened to be a senior detective were they released from custody with no charges.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The car was not released, and we can only think was eventually crushed by the Italian authorities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Farewell Fiat Tipo Polizia, but you do live on on the internet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(If you are wondering why we have a picture of a toy car of the original - it's because we couldn't find an original picture of a real Polizia cop car).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By Justin Clements &lt;a href="http://www.streetsafari.com/index.esp"&gt;Street Safari&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Original posted on &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/"&gt;Art Car Central&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xyz_xH9KYOI/TcSDQda9RZI/AAAAAAAAG1E/uw3xHaizKi8/s1600/Italian_Fiat_Police_Model_Rally_Art_Car_Central_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Italian Job Police Rally Art Car" border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-xyz_xH9KYOI/TcSDQda9RZI/AAAAAAAAG1E/uw3xHaizKi8/s1600/Italian_Fiat_Police_Model_Rally_Art_Car_Central_1.jpg" title="Italian Job Police Rally Art Car" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lrdMPZdOv7s/TcSDRhuEIKI/AAAAAAAAG1M/OIr0Fo6_sks/s1600/Italian_Fiat_Police_Rally_Art_Car_Central_0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Italian Job Police Rally Art Car" border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-lrdMPZdOv7s/TcSDRhuEIKI/AAAAAAAAG1M/OIr0Fo6_sks/s1600/Italian_Fiat_Police_Rally_Art_Car_Central_0.jpg" title="Italian Job Police Rally Art Car" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2720947563902001580-6912713202629305907?l=artcar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/feeds/6912713202629305907/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/05/italian-job-police-rally-art-car.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/6912713202629305907'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/6912713202629305907'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/05/italian-job-police-rally-art-car.html' title='Italian Job Police Rally Art Car'/><author><name>Costas Schuler</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh6.googleusercontent.com/-__hYbVr1Xs8/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/VbxC0zIwUxA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bpoV1YuRsZ0/TcSDQz61kRI/AAAAAAAAG1I/0DYywB185Rw/s72-c/Italian_Fiat_Police_Rally_Art_Car_Central_2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2720947563902001580.post-6465269955334317206</id><published>2011-05-06T13:38:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-05-06T13:38:34.997-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Chalkboard'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Painted'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Series'/><title type='text'>12 Chalkboard Art Cars to Draw For</title><content type='html'>&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pFePFjrpwgU/TbUHL6vif3I/AAAAAAAAG0E/ES2R8Kk3OoA/s1600/Chalkboard_Art_Car_Central.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pFePFjrpwgU/TbUHL6vif3I/AAAAAAAAG0E/ES2R8Kk3OoA/s1600/Chalkboard_Art_Car_Central.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Chalkboard Toyota Art Car - &lt;a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/michicat/4026095527/"&gt;Via&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What better way to keep in touch, write down a giant grocery list or just tell the dude he parked in your spot again than with a chalkboard art car.

from Fort Bend County, Texas has his station wagon art car covered in comic strips stolen right in front of his house Easter morning. First of all who would steal and art car and secondly who would steal one on Easter morning? For the most part stealing art cars is not a very good idea and here is why:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;REAL easy to spot&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Not reliable&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Most people know who the owners are&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Not a good get away car.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Resale value is lousy&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Gas millage is poor&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Everyone stares at you&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The art car community looks out for each others cars&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;So if you are a bad guy reading this blog and you stole this car or are considering stealing an art car in the future think again. My advise to you is just keep walking!!! Anyone with information on the art car’s whereabouts is asked to call police.

Holy smokes!!! do we need special protective barriers around pools to stop some folks from driving their precious vehicles into the pool??? By the looks of it I think we do.&lt;br /&gt;I want to know how on earth does one get that close to a swimming pool to actually drive their car into it. None of these cars is a &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search?q=prius"&gt;Prius&lt;/a&gt;, so the sticky gas pedal excuse wont work here. Was there no parking space available left that the pool seemed like the next best thing? Was the pool gravity so strong that it just sucked these cars into them? The only answer I can come up with is "The Devil made them do it", what do you think happened ? Some of the cars found in the bottom of these pools include: &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Mazda"&gt;Mazda&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Jeep"&gt;Jeep&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Minivan"&gt;MiniVan&lt;/a&gt;, even a very expensive &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search/label/Rolls-Royce"&gt;Rolls Royce&lt;/a&gt;, ouch!!!&lt;/td&gt;

And then psychologically speaking what better way to boost morale in this current sad state of affairs that the renewed hope of a big smurf comeback in 2011.&lt;br /&gt;If these five smurf art cars don't restore your hope in cleaner air and better TV season next year, nothing will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-OYn50u5WJ5g/TaiEZdwgsxI/AAAAAAAAGxk/2Y9VmsXBozQ/s1600/electric_Smurfmobile_left_side_art_car_central.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left;

No worries because the &lt;a href="http://elvismobile.blogspot.com/"&gt;Elvis Traveling Museum&lt;/a&gt; Art Van may be the answer to all your troubles. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://unusuallife.com/about/"&gt;JoDavid&lt;/a&gt; a Seattle-based fine artist has been transforming his 2001 VW camper van into the Elvis Mobile. Its a traveling homage to the King complete with murals painted on magnets and nice looking mini museum in the trunk. It was a project started as a labor of love for his wife Marlow Harris, an avid Elvis fan and occasional Priscilla Presley impersonator.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;So the question begs to be asked, will there be any weddings performed at the Elvis mobile and the answer is maybe. So far there has only been one recorded wedding and that was performed by ordained minister and friend &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/search?q=extremo" target="_blank"&gt;Extremo the Clown&lt;/a&gt; who happened to be around during last years art show at the &lt;a href="http://www.fremontfair.org/art-cars/"&gt;Fremont Fair&lt;/a&gt; in Seatle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Jo David or his wife ever become ordained ministers there will be a lot of happy couples who would love to be married by Elvis in a town near them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In case the wedding load get to heavy for them, there are plenty of other Elvis mobiles around the country and even Australia that could possible work as alternative wedding locations for the happy couples. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="356" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BwnCof8-idA" title="YouTube video player" width="580"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

When American troops began to leave the Philippines at the end of WWII, hundreds of surplus jeeps were sold or given to local Filipinos. The Filipinos stripped down and altered the jeeps to accommodate more passengers, added metal roofs for shade, and decorated the vehicles with vibrant colors and bright chrome hood ornaments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The jeepney emerged as a popular and creative way to re-establish inexpensive public transport that had been virtually destroyed during the wat. Nowadays they are packed with people, flamboyantly decorated and a symbol of Philippine culture but may be on the endangered list due to stricter air pollution regulations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a new documentary out called Jeepney by &lt;a href="http://vimeo.com/user5472936"&gt;Perinspire&lt;/a&gt;

and many others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last February at a rail station in Zurich ten groups of Swiss street artists painted and repainted Volvo S60 and canvas. It took five days to record the event with a camera mounted across from the exhibit that took a photo of the artists’ accomplishments every five seconds. The video by the way is fantastic. Over a period of five days approximately 35,000 commuters got a chance to see these graffiti street artist work their craft on a volvo art car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the artist took advantage of the time-lapse photography and made their project into a very humporous stop-motion animation&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Our intentions with this art project was to express and emphasize in a creative and innovative way the design of the Volvo S60,” said Volvo Cars Switzerland president Anouk Poelmann.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The cars turned out great but its too bad they had to paint over each peace, it would have been great to see each of these art cars out on the road turning heads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

Get yourself a few five gallon buckets of paint and take the lids off. Get in your car and then find a way to get in car wreck and PRESTO!!!! the entire inside of the car will be covered in paint in no time. Not very efficient and cost effective in the long run but it does get the job done:)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These pictures were taken by Allan Hollister of a gnarly paint car accident on St Johns Bridge in South Africa. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://carinsurance.arrivealive.co.za/photos-reveal-funny-truth-about-dangers-of-driving-with-paint-in-your-car.php"&gt;via&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ncxHk7qaNtg/TZT6RMBQ1ZI/AAAAAAAAGtU/gUKmym0DwL0/s1600/Instant_Painted_Art_Car_Central_0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ncxHk7qaNtg/TZT6RMBQ1ZI/AAAAAAAAGtU/gUKmym0DwL0/s1600/Instant_Painted_Art_Car_Central_0.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-m09YlNVZwwY/TZT6Ru7foyI/AAAAAAAAGtY/8_aIYFlakJU/s1600/Instant_Painted_Art_Car_Central_8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-m09YlNVZwwY/TZT6Ru7foyI/AAAAAAAAGtY/8_aIYFlakJU/s1600/Instant_Painted_Art_Car_Central_8.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_0Xao4GnMd4/TZT6ShV4-zI/AAAAAAAAGtg/0kms0zc8a0A/s1600/Instant_Painted_Art_Car_Central_5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_0Xao4GnMd4/TZT6ShV4-zI/AAAAAAAAGtg/0kms0zc8a0A/s1600/Instant_Painted_Art_Car_Central_5.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2720947563902001580-8236095556004177579?l=artcar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/feeds/8236095556004177579/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/03/car-accident-paint-instant-art-car.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/8236095556004177579'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/8236095556004177579'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/03/car-accident-paint-instant-art-car.html' title='Car Accident + Paint = Instant Art Car'/><author><name>Costas Schuler</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh6.googleusercontent.com/-__hYbVr1Xs8/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/VbxC0zIwUxA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Frc60rTIgnY/TZT6SHYx87I/AAAAAAAAGtc/i5lDYlC1vEQ/s72-c/Instant_Painted_Art_Car_Central_7.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2720947563902001580.post-7272808858298899182</id><published>2011-03-30T10:17:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-30T10:17:37.665-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Shoe Bike'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Electric'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='China'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Leather'/><title type='text'>Giant Shoe Art Car Kicks Butt</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-v7HdpiRBwnU/TZNjPqVBpAI/AAAAAAAAGtE/jYzJbOYYyG0/s1600/Giant-Leather-Shoe-Car_Art_Car_Central.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Giant Shoe Art Car Kicks Butt" border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-v7HdpiRBwnU/TZNjPqVBpAI/AAAAAAAAGtE/jYzJbOYYyG0/s1600/Giant-Leather-Shoe-Car_Art_Car_Central.jpg" title="Giant Shoe Art Car Kicks Butt" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kang Shoe, a shoe manufacturer in China went all out and created a massive electric powered leather shoe art car that kicks some serious butt. It can carry two people up to 250 miles at speeds of up to 20mph on a single charge of the battery underneath the driver's seat. The body is made of real leather and cost about $6,500.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once they they made it they took it out for a demo outside its headquarters in Wenzhou in eastern China's Zhejiang Province. Workers lined up for the chance to drive the shoe car which is 10ft long and more than three feet high.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The manufacturer created this shoe art car as a promotional tool with plans to make 40 for stores around the country.&lt;br /&gt;Posted on &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com"&gt;Art Car Central&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://web.orange.co.uk/article/quirkies/Giant_shoe_car_a_step_forward"&gt;Original Post Via &lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2720947563902001580-7272808858298899182?l=artcar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/feeds/7272808858298899182/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/03/giant-shoe-art-car-kicks-butt.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/7272808858298899182'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/7272808858298899182'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/03/giant-shoe-art-car-kicks-butt.html' title='Giant Shoe Art Car Kicks Butt'/><author><name>Costas Schuler</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh6.googleusercontent.com/-__hYbVr1Xs8/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/VbxC0zIwUxA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-v7HdpiRBwnU/TZNjPqVBpAI/AAAAAAAAGtE/jYzJbOYYyG0/s72-c/Giant-Leather-Shoe-Car_Art_Car_Central.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2720947563902001580.post-6696324752161835456</id><published>2011-03-30T09:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-03-30T10:18:25.091-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Painted'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Europe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rally'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Citroen'/><title type='text'>Mangled Madness Rally Car - The Duck By Jaryn part 2</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MnXcbFsXuMc/TZNdfDrFmjI/AAAAAAAAGs0/oVIU1tpaKLk/s1600/2Dead_Duck_Painted_Citroen_Art_Car_Centrall.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Mangled Madness Rally Car - Art Car Central" border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-MnXcbFsXuMc/TZNdfDrFmjI/AAAAAAAAGs0/oVIU1tpaKLk/s1600/2Dead_Duck_Painted_Citroen_Art_Car_Centrall.jpg" title="Mangled Madness Rally Car - Art Car Central" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the last installment of a StreetSafari ArtCar we showed you the Citroen 1CV. We even left a cliff hanger! How's that for blogging?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The long and short of it is that Mr Ducks, owner of the Duck, knows these cars like the back of his hand. Which he should since he hand builds these things from scratch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So whenever he goes missing on an event we don't unduly worry. He's probably in some town somewhere repairing the Duck. Doesn't matter what it is, he can repair it 9/10. No problems at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Even when teams tell us in the evening "it looked terminal", short of the car being on fire, we tell them that he'll make it, and most times he turns up late into the evening looking worse for wear, looking a bit grimier, but with a great story to tell (we think - as we don't know Czech). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On this particular event, he had genuinely gone missing though. But again, we weren't too concerned as he'll pop out somewhere. Which is exactly what he did. At the end in Prague, in a proper Citroen 2CV. Which was odd. He was sporting a rather large plaster on his head as well. This can only end well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He then proceeded to show us the following pictures. He even brought a translator for the evening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The outcome was that when a crate fell out of the back of an Italian lorry, all the cars dived left and right, including the Duck. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But with a suspension travel in excess of 12 inches, the car simply flipped over, rolled 4 times, and spilled it's contents across an Italian Autostrada. As he was off the main route, no one on the rally had actually seen what had happened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Italians put him in hospital overnight before flying him back to Prague the following day. The day after he drove into Prague (not far from his home) to see us, and tell us about his great adventure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please be careful with your Art Cars!&lt;br /&gt;By Justin Clements &lt;a href="http://www.streetsafari.com/index.esp"&gt;Street Safari&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;Original posted on &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/"&gt;Art Car Central&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

. This Painted Citroen art car is based on the use of opposite colors that make it really hard to focus and in that note she succeed in giving me headache:) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About Patricia&lt;br /&gt;In such a short time, Patricia Van Lubeck has quickly become a leading neo-surreal artists. Born in Amsterdam in 1965, Patricia’s life has quite recently changed dramatically. She used to be book-keeper until 2000 when she started the 21st century by becoming a full time professional artist. She moved to the Bay of Plenty in New Zealand in 2005. Since then her work has taken a new direction. Although her style is often regarded as surreal, her work does not strictly fall in that category. Her paintings are apparently simple in composition but executed amazingly detailed and visually very dynamic. Her paintings have realistic elements, but above all an alienating atmosphere. Her works in recent years show landscapes and weird plant species which she calls her psychedelic gardens. `` I consider my work an invitation to explore the ways we experience our environment. My inspiration comes from the ordinary things around me, the artist in me just sees things in an unusual perspective. Picture a baker looking at a corn field. He sees bread, cookies and pies. I see shapes, patterns and colors. I like to zoom in on an everyday object such as the pins of a hair brush and imagine a tiny landscape with rows of hairy trees.’’ Remarkably, Patricia is a self-taught and self-starting artist. She sets a high benchmark for all her works and seeks to achieve a high level of craftsmanship. It takes her up to eight hours just to prepare the surface on some canvases. Then she oils up to 10 layers to achieve rich colors and a smooth finish. ``I am always trying to achieve high contrast within an unlimited color range. I love working with geometric patterns. Before I started painting on canvas, my cars had always been willing victims to this passion. Consequently patterns, natural or artificial, form the foundation of a lot of my images.’’ Due to her time-consuming technique Patricia is only able to create about 10 paintings a year. She loves painting at night in her rural studio setting with no distractions – just the call of the ruru (a New Zealand native owl) to keep her company. Patricia thrives on the repetitiveness of her patterns. She feels the calming aura in concentrating with a small brush in her ‘psychedelic botanic garden’. Since 2002, Patricia has exhibited in The Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Portugal, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2010 grantee of the Pollock-Krasner foundation in New York&lt;br /&gt;finalist 2010 NZ Adam portraiture awards, 2007 NZ Painting and Printmaking Award and 2006 James Wallace Art Awards&lt;br /&gt;2nd place Tivoli Audio PAL Case design contest&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-HmDMQhIycgM/TYqwqEV-lJI/AAAAAAAAGro/qDragNh_fOM/s1600/Patricia_Van_Lubeck_Citroen_Visa_Art_Car_Central3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Citroen Visa Art Car By Patricia Van Lubeck" border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-HmDMQhIycgM/TYqwqEV-lJI/AAAAAAAAGro/qDragNh_fOM/s1600/Patricia_Van_Lubeck_Citroen_Visa_Art_Car_Central3.jpg" title="Citroen Visa Art Car By Patricia Van Lubeck" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Citroen Visa Art Car By &lt;a href="http://www.spraygraphic.com/ViewProject/4904/normal.html"&gt;Patricia Van Lubeck&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-NXZ_wd-mtuM/TYqwpK2lH-I/AAAAAAAAGrg/n0KwfcEHqmw/s1600/Patricia_Van_Lubeck_Citroen_Visa_Art_Car_Central2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Citroen Visa Art Car By Patricia Van Lubeck" border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-NXZ_wd-mtuM/TYqwpK2lH-I/AAAAAAAAGrg/n0KwfcEHqmw/s1600/Patricia_Van_Lubeck_Citroen_Visa_Art_Car_Central2.jpg" title="Citroen Visa Art Car By Patricia Van Lubeck" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Citroen Visa Art Car By &lt;a href="http://www.spraygraphic.com/ViewProject/4904/normal.html"&gt;Patricia Van Lubeck&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My boxy little Panda was just the right car for an intricate tartan pattern. It took some careful planning and a couple of days of concentrated painting but in the end all my efforts payed off..... the car looked like a shopping bag on wheels! We crossed many borders all over Europe with the Tartan Panda without being stopped by customs once. This is the ideal design for smuggling purposes!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-DYQxY0-Dj5s/TYqwnVgpn_I/AAAAAAAAGrY/2VXxOwqPa6Q/s1600/Patricia_Van_Lubeck_Art_Car_Central_Fiat-Panda.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Fiat Panda Art Car By Patricia Van Lubeck" border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-DYQxY0-Dj5s/TYqwnVgpn_I/AAAAAAAAGrY/2VXxOwqPa6Q/s1600/Patricia_Van_Lubeck_Art_Car_Central_Fiat-Panda.jpg" title="Fiat Panda Art Car By Patricia Van Lubeck" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Fiat Panda Tartan Art Car By &lt;a href="http://www.spraygraphic.com/ViewProject/4892/normal.html"&gt;Patricia Van Lubeck&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-3gdPFrWi3Xo/TYqwopqV4nI/AAAAAAAAGrc/IV2TKIkGSIo/s1600/Patricia_Van_Lubeck_Art_Car_Central_Fiat-Panda2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-3gdPFrWi3Xo/TYqwopqV4nI/AAAAAAAAGrc/IV2TKIkGSIo/s1600/Patricia_Van_Lubeck_Art_Car_Central_Fiat-Panda2.jpg" alt="Fiat Panda Art Car By Patricia Van Lubeck" title="Fiat Panda Art Car By Patricia Van Lubeck" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Fiat Panda Tartan Art Car By &lt;a href="http://www.spraygraphic.com/ViewProject/4892/normal.html"&gt;Patricia Van Lubeck&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dazzle Painted Cars&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Dazzle painting' was a camouflage technique used by allied forces during World war I. Ships were painted in large geometrical patterns and contrasting colors in an attempt to confuse the German navy. Most important function of this camouflage was to disguise the front of the ship and its sailing direction to enemy submarines. Although visually very effective, sadly this kind of painting did not prove to be a major advantage in battle. There's a good article about art &amp;amp; camouflage (featuring this car) on the Tate Museum site. An excellent source of info is the book 'Dazzle painting' by Albert Roskam (ISBN 90 71893 02 2). It's written in Dutch but it has lots of images. I gave my cars this urban camouflage to maximize my chances of survival in the inner city traffic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

We take our colorful cars to France, rag them down to Switzerland and over the Swiss Alps, into Austria, and then up into Prague in the Czech Republic. (Not Czechoslovakia, as after they got independence the Czechs and Slovaks decided that they really didn't like each other, and went their separate ways, hence Czech Republic and Slovakia today.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This vehicle is from our first ever CzechWrecks, entered by a slightly mad Czech guy called Jaryn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, we've never actually had a full and proper conversation with Jaryn as he doesn't speak a word of English, and we don't speak whatever he speaks. So we talk via translators when/if they are around. Jaryn can be best described as an artist, and a very talented one at that. We think he makes stained glass windows for churches, and he does more or less come from Bohemia which is quite fitting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One day, (we're not sure when) Jaryn took delivery of a Citroen 2CV that had had a head on into a tree. It was a in a bad way; he did what any perfectly normal person would do, and cut it down the middle, and welded it all back together to create a Citroen 1CV. You were thinking that right?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what we have here is possibly a one off creation, although we think he may have made a few before this 1CV, although he definitely made a few afterwards as we'll show you next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you know the 2CV you will know that it has very wallowy suspension in the first place. Imagine what it's like when it's half the width! On a hairpin the suspension has over a foot of travel! Even a Ford F150 Raptor doesn't have a foot of suspension travel. As Jaryn takes a hairpin corner, he can put his hand out of the window, and literally drag his hand on the tarmac road surface! See what angle your car has to be to do the same thing!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This car also has a party trick - stick the steering on full lock, put it in gear, and jump out of the car. The result is an impressive car that drives itself in circles. Trouble is that the circle moves and its not before long that you will see a very slightly mad Czechman running after his car before it piles into something solid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enjoy the pictures!&lt;br /&gt;By Justin Clements &lt;a href="http://www.streetsafari.com/index.esp"&gt;Street Safari&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;

It was created by Steve Darnell, a welder by trade, via a site called &lt;a href="http://www.welderup.com/"&gt;Welderup&lt;/a&gt;. The power comes from a Cummins diesel motor out of a 1998 Dodge pick-up.  The motor sports a twin turbo set-up and Fass Fuel System. The engine produces 1200 lb/ft torque and runs the quarter mile in the mid 12 second range. The frame is completely hand built to accommodate the amount of stress coming from the diesel motor.  A four-link and air ride suspension keeps the rear tires in check, while the front end is a mostly stock 1929 Ford 1-ton axle. It basically smokes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-2d8T1NDR_3s/TXnPCJgPIAI/AAAAAAAAGpE/bzgpXSJ8NMo/s1600/diesel_rod_by_welderup_Art_Car_Central2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left;

The harmonicas were all the key of G, but apparently the ones with insects stuck inside were G-Sharp. The harmonicas were affixed with double-sided adhesive, which believe it or not can withstand a 300-degree heat. Which is handy if the turbo gets too hot, or for when the car jumps it through flaming rings of fire. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="350" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/IlqsaoY65mI" title="YouTube video player" width="580"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2720947563902001580-6076142566484790970?l=artcar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/feeds/6076142566484790970/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/03/mini-carmonica-or-harmonicar-covered-in.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/6076142566484790970'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2720947563902001580/posts/default/6076142566484790970'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/03/mini-carmonica-or-harmonicar-covered-in.html' title='Mini Carmonica or Harmonicar Covered in 330 Harmonicas'/><author><name>Costas Schuler</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='//lh6.googleusercontent.com/-__hYbVr1Xs8/AAAAAAAAAAI/AAAAAAAAAAA/VbxC0zIwUxA/s512-c/photo.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-LSFrKvTejTE/TXhnj3KZnaI/AAAAAAAAGok/jnPnz8ilS1o/s72-c/carmonica_mini_harmonica_art_car_central.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2720947563902001580.post-9123624404158940670</id><published>2011-03-09T18:02:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-09T18:02:49.684-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sculptured'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BMW'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='24 Hour Lemons'/><title type='text'>Operate While Racing - Operation BMW Art Car at 24 Lemons</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-a1DIc2ZYz6M/TXbT9RD8W6I/AAAAAAAAGn8/copakCqq3Ec/s1600/Operation-_BMW_Art_Car_Central_10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Operate While Racing - Operation BMW Art Car at 24 Lemons" border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-a1DIc2ZYz6M/TXbT9RD8W6I/AAAAAAAAGn8/copakCqq3Ec/s1600/Operation-_BMW_Art_Car_Central_10.jpg" title="Operate While Racing - Operation BMW Art Car at 24 Lemons" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Team operation created this fully functional Operation BMW Art Car for their race at 24 Lemons.&lt;br /&gt;All the parts are located inside the hood of this 1991 318i and held in place with heavy duty Velcro.

This BMW art car is everywhere, with gushy articles galore about how "great this" how "great that", yada yada yada. On and on it goes with article after article singing the praises of Jeff Koons. Dude!!!! &lt;a href="http://www.bmwdrives.com/bmw-artcars.php"&gt;BMW&lt;/a&gt; has produced some truly amazing art cars created by artist such as Alexander Calder, Roy Lichtenstein, Frank Stella and Andy Warhol. All these guys actually painted their cars, unlike Koons who barely scratched the back of the BMW with a sharpie to sign his name. The art on the BMW is a CAD generated art work that was printed on vinyl and applied to the bodywork and various spare parts. Don't get me wrong, I don't have anything against vinyl but at what point did Koons get on his CAD program and crank out this art work? BMW used Koons star power to promote their latest creation which is fine me, but in my opinion he can't hold a candle to the great artists who came before him. Unless BMW rethinks their choice of artist to represent their cars in the future, there will be a lot more candle vigils taking place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Slam three  bits of wood together to make a great big tail wing (remember, this will  aid you &lt;span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1299334432_0"&gt;fuel consumption&lt;/span&gt;), then paint the whole thing green, find a free font off the internet and get a friend to cut up some white &lt;span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1299334432_1"&gt;vinyl letters&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Final job, and most important, is attaching 2 red buckets to the rear bumper. Job done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can of course go the extra mile and buy some &lt;span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1299334432_2"&gt;eBay&lt;/span&gt; sourced Thunderbird costumes. Remember that the different members of &lt;span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1299334432_3" style="background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; cursor: pointer;"&gt;Thunderbirds&lt;/span&gt;  had different colored sashes, so don't buy a blue sash and call  yourself Virgil - cause you'll look an idiot.

Raul  Lemesoff converted  a 1979 green Ford Falcon into a moving library cruising down the  busy streets of Buenos Aires giving out books. The Ford falcon he drives around once belonged to the Argentinean armed forces during its  dictatorship but is now covered with over 900 hardcover books. He travels cross-country handing out free literature for people  in the  cities of Argentina and in remote areas where schools and books  are  scant. He also accepts donations in order to supply schools in  need. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During&amp;nbsp; an interview he said “The  Weapon of Mass Instruction is meant to get people to recognize  various  aspects of life: sharing, education, and also to have a good  time. It’s a  contribution to peace through literature.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By taking what was  once a symbol of suppression and violence, Raul has  transformed it into a  peace campaign of communication through recycled  books.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

For me the search begun with a couple of old school vans covered in unicorns from the 80's almost as weird as the &lt;a href="http://artcar.blogspot.com/2009/12/dangerous-duct-tape-van-on-loose.html"&gt;free candy van&lt;/a&gt;. On the other hand it just reinforces the idea some still believe in magic. Here is a good explanation for Unicorns on Wiki.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Marianna Mayer has observed (The Unicorn and the Lake), "The unicorn is the only fabulous beast that does not seem to have been conceived out of human fears. In even the earliest references he is fierce yet good, selfless yet solitary, but always mysteriously beautiful. He could be captured only by unfair means, and his single horn was said to neutralize poison."&lt;/blockquote&gt;Art Car Central Unicorn Definition:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;"Fabulous eccentric person painted a unicorn on their car was not conceived from human fear but sheer insanity.  A unicorn truck is fierce yet solitary because it would be really difficult finding a date for the prom in one. No one in their right mind would ever car jack a unicorn car, and the single horn was said to neutralize crossing pedestrians" &lt;/blockquote&gt;None of it makes sense I know and neither do unicorn cars, trucks buses and bikes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left;

It's  not an easy question to ask a 3 year old as there answers are limited.  However, &lt;span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1298662966_0" style="border-bottom: 2px dotted rgb(54, 99, 136); cursor: pointer;"&gt;Lightning&lt;/span&gt;  McQueen surely has to be one of the top. And, if you need a sporty  looking vehicle to base your Lightning McQueen on - what would you  choose? A &lt;span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1298662966_1" style="border-bottom: 2px dotted rgb(54, 99, 136); cursor: pointer;"&gt;Volvo 740&lt;/span&gt; of course.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In  this case, three grown adults made the car of their dreams, apparently.  A Volvo 740 plucked from obscurity that had spent its life driving  round the UK's home counties, was now made into an art car. And driven  across Europe repeatedly on our events.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've never actually  worked out what the motivation to make this car was, apart from further  capitalising on a Cars dvd they had obviously bought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may be wondering whether there are any similarities between this car and a real sports car. There aren't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However,  the side effect of being the proud owner of Lightning McQueen meant  that the owner was constantly bugged by their kids to take them to  school in Lightning, which included half the kids from the  neighbourhood. As the owner lamented one day, we can do the school run  in a brand new Mercedes, or Lightning. Lightning won every time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So there we have it. How to impress your children. Make Lightning McQueen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By Justin Clements &lt;a href="http://www.streetsafari.com/index.esp"&gt;Street Safari&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-sjVJGWEtshI/TWhWGzDu9AI/AAAAAAAAGkI/tfhlsPaXIss/s1600/Lightning_McQueen_Volvo_Rally_Art_Car_Central2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Lightning McQueen Volvo Rally Art Car Central" border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-sjVJGWEtshI/TWhWGzDu9AI/AAAAAAAAGkI/tfhlsPaXIss/s1600/Lightning_McQueen_Volvo_Rally_Art_Car_Central2.jpg" title="Lightning McQueen Volvo Rally Art Car Central" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-2f52p749dHg/TWhWH9ENGNI/AAAAAAAAGkQ/ITNYvEJGIg8/s1600/Lightning_McQueen_Volvo_Rally_Art_Car_Central3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img alt="Lightning McQueen Volvo Rally Art Car Central" border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-2f52p749dHg/TWhWH9ENGNI/AAAAAAAAGkQ/ITNYvEJGIg8/s1600/Lightning_McQueen_Volvo_Rally_Art_Car_Central3.jpg" title="Lightning McQueen Volvo Rally Art Car Central" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2720947563902001580-1165477275903405636?l=artcar.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/feeds/1165477275903405636/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://artcar.blogspot.com/2011/02/lightning-mcqueen-volvo-rally-art-car.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='a
