My whole life I have spent around drag racing, my Dad has been racing since I was 4 years old (so almost 24 years now). It's what I love and what we loved to spend our weekends doing as a family. To read more about my love for it check out this post I'm A Tomboy. My Dad has always been known for his car, it's called Part Time Mistress:
The car has been painted this way for quite some time. My brother is an incredibly talented artist and painted this whole car himself. Well, the time has come for a change and my Dad wants something darker. My brother did a rendition of the change and here it is:
Amazing, right?!?! On the trunk lid there will be a tribute to my Mom in the form of her favorite movie: The Nightmare Before Christmas. My brother will paint this on there along with her name somewhere:
It will be a few years before he will debut the new car design but I can't wait!!!! My sister and I always joke that our brother took all the artistic genes in the family haha because we surely don't have any. I can barely draw a stick figure haha.
Enjoy your day everyone!
Enjoy your day everyone!
It's awesome to have a family hobby like that! Especially one you all have been enjoying for such a long time. We're planning on buying Lily her first set of dice for her 6th birthday and hope that one day we'll be doing dungeon crawls as a family :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome!! :) I'm sure she will love that.
DeleteWow -- your brother is really talented!! And what a cool car!!
ReplyDeleteI used to live at the drag races. But I would get so mad watching all the time trials and then my friend would red light. I means these races go into the morning hours. But it's just the way it happens and sometimes there is a win. It was so much fun. Thanks for bringing back a memory.
ReplyDeleteLove the designs
ReplyDeleteWOW! Your brother is extremely talented!
ReplyDeleteThe mistress went from being fun to being sexy! The car looks great.

ReplyDeleteIYour brother is extremly talented! Is he a professional artist (he should be!!)? grew up in a family that did watch car racing and went to markets (often attached to a WW beetle get together). It felt kindow gypsy like when I grew up, and in a way still are, but I would never been without the experiences it gave me. And even today I love watching races!
ReplyDeleteWell, that's a fun fact that I didn't know about you!!
