  • something different to layout

    Posted by Terry Bull on March 28, 2009 at 2:17 am

    Just had a customer friend come by with his new purchase .

    He see it for sale as is and thought he would bring it to me to turn into his latest rollin’ ad
    This is based on an old Austin taxi

    I done a small van (normal) for him about three yrs ago and he reckons its been his best source for new clients
    I dont particularly like red n black together but as its his fighting strip colours i have to run with it
    hes a 7th dan kick boxer with about forty yrs experience …so dont laugh at his van

    now to dream up a layout to go on it

    Nice one Terry.

    Are the mechanicals original?

    This is an original model T that i lettered and striped
    The body is hand built and it was decided to make it into a bakers van
    This van is coming over your side Jill to compete in a coast to coast rally
    Seattle to New York to commemorate 100 years of the T
    all paint ‘cept rally details and door crest

    That’s lovely, Terry.
    I wonder if it will make a visit to Pittsburgh?
    I’d love to see it up close in person.

    Just an update on the final outcome of this van
    I’m not a fan of red n black but i think the white has broken it up a bit

    Hi Terry
    nice work as always, writing has broken up the base colours nicely stopping it looking so drab

    Looks great Terry, as you say not good base colours to start with but you cracked it.

    Did you design the logo?

    No paint on this one?

    How you getting paid……….free lessons…. 😀
