The Great Handy Car Make Over Greetings!
Time has come to document the make over. Loads of work and still not
done-closer every day. I wanted to minimize discussion group meetings with
the big hat cops. Nothing was actually wrong and I never got a ticket but
arguments got harder. Essentially I wanted to lower the hood art and make
more rear visability by lowering the art on the back quarters...This
called for removal of the hood art and removal of the hand fins in back. I
went for a manifold hand design in front with fins hanging downward and
for the rear rocket like hands and arms on either side. For the hood I
wanted a central artwork but not too big surrounded by arms with hands
extended. Each arm would have a mannequin hand and eventually a slogan
which would help with the introduction of the car as shrine. I will start
with the tear apart scenes- It was quite a job. Things were extremely well
stuck on-even after 3 or so years. It took all day just to get them off
and then there was the mess....
Ok Who is going to clean up this then?
The Master at rest....
At this stage the hand fins from the rear have been
taped on and foamed in and the large hands from the front have been
attached to the rear...
One of the pylon hands from the front went behind
Handria on the roof and got foamed in.
Lotsa foam and mess...
