***HAPPY HALLOWEEN***

Before and After...

 Another set of hand lettered with patina doors finished up today. Keep em' coming, I can't get enough! Every time one of these trucks go out, someone else sees it and calls for lettering of their own. This truck was brought up from Costa Mesa and had been lettered as the Rooster Cafe. Stripped off the paint, and re-lettered the truck, got to love old lacquer...

Also Today...

 Javi's 29' Roadster is about to go up for sale! If only I had the dough... Full runner, with a 37' Flatty, 39' Top-Loader and juice brakes. And look, if you make the pictures black and white, it looks like 1948! I might have to talk him into letting me letter it before it goes down the road...
