#1: Jesus wept. Author: Resolutionary, Location: South West LondonPosted: Mon Mar 28, 2011 11:09 am ---- So there was this show, optimistically named Heaven on Wheels, a couple of days ago. I generally browse Modified Cars dot com for show coverage, and found these beasts.
All I could think is, there was a nice 206 under that once.
*warning: unsightly bodywork and lairy paintjobs within each link*
Maybe I'm just grumpy, but while I can appreciate the work gone into them, all bar the last one are abismal attempts at individualism.

They don't have to be cartoons, abstract usually looks the nuts.

Author: Jay794, Location: Sheffield/Chesterfield/DronfieldPosted: Mon Mar 28, 2011 12:40 pm ---- I know they don't have to be, but I only ever see airbrushing done as flames or manga and IMO it looks s**t. Obviously there are some exceptions but I'm completely against the jap look

They might not be to everyone's taste but more effort went into those than any other car at the Fast Show.

loads of my mates (unfortunatly not me!) have been over to belguim/france/germany for shows (this weekend included) and the pictures/vids etc that come back are so varied its untrue!
i'd personally rather go to any show in europe than the best one here @ home
