What "artists" will do

So my wife wants to go to the Art Walk last night downtown, a patient of her's says "oh, you should check out [bla bla] there's a bunch of art cars and a cool old VW painted"

Ultimately I found myself mortified on many many levels but I thought I'd share

I think it looks a lot better than the Janis Joplin 356. It reminds me of the hippie 917 that was so outrageous in its time. The front reminds me of the most recent BMW art car by Jeff Koons. And yes, I do like most of the classic BMW art cars. Stella, Calder, Warhol...

Yeah, me too

I've got a few shots of these cars somewherefrom my factory & museum visit/tour. One of these days I'll get around to scanning some of this cool stuf to digital. Damn!

Hey Chuck..

I owe you a call back, been busy like you. Almost called a couple of times and realized it was 11:30 already!

Not the best shot.. but here it is.. The script on the rear doors reads "Porsche Support Vehicle" She also has PCA license plates.

I'd never do it but don't hate it. Hell, at least it's on the road. Most of these cars are gone.
