Interest in Porsche and racing art?

Hi All,
I've got an old friend (Barry) that can really sketch/draw. He has a serious interest in Formula 1 cars from the 60's & 70's and sketches them quite regularly. Here is an example of his work.










I asked him the other day if he had ever drawn any Porsche's but said he had not. Later that day he sent me an e-mail with some new work.







I think these are really fabulous and I have a few originals hanging in my office now. I asked Barry if he would mind if I posted these here to see if there might some interest from you all in purchasing these. He thought it was a great idea and thought $25/print (8"x10"ish) would be a decent price. I'm not sure how he would go about selling these just yet (ebay or ?) but that's up to him.

Thanks, let me know what you think.

Moderators, if there is any conflict with posting this here please remove.

He should put some up on ebay and see what happens.

While I am generally a fan of looseness in drawings, these are a little too loose for my tastes, and I think most people would agree and would appreciate a little more tightness and detail before they part with their cash.

Just my two cents.

I think there is also a market for owners sending photos of their cars and having him draw them. The work could be a replica of the original photo or (as I would like) an in-motion drawing of my car at speed.
