|
|
We've talked about images we like the look of, either artistic works, advertisements or period photographs, but what do we all have hanging on the walls in our respective houses, apartments etc, with a motoring theme to them?
We've just hung this Large canvas at the top of the stairs, so its nice and visible as we head upstairs, probably taken in Cuba at a guess!
This Cuneo print, of Le Mans in the 20s, hangs in my room here (slightly dark and obscured but you get the drift! )

I have this (now framed) on the lounge wall, me at the wheel of the Saab 96 I used to own; a surprise birthday present from an artist friend:
Now any of you who meet me can't say that I'm no oil painting

Sorry I don`t have pictures at this time...
but we have a vintage 1956 Tokheim gas pump in Sunoco trim, in the living room. It has been gutted and built as a display case for die cast cars. There are also 5 other display cases full of radiator caps through out the house. |

A petrol pomp with a brighter bulb in the top would make good standard lamp methinks.  |

Anything car related has to be kept in my home office.
