All it needs are blue and red lights on the roof and the words "POLICE" on the doors... ;-) Nicole, that’s cold did you have a flash back (police car)? Just a joke. Don’t you subscribe to the philosophy of “if you can’t do it right don't do it at all”. My great white is a one of a kind artistic creation.

Working for Porsche I cant believe you did not see this car coming off the assemble line. Those are factory graphics (painted on factory option #26). , The way I ordered it in 1985. You have to see the whole are to appreciate its artistic value. At least I don’t have flames on it

Thumbs up

Steve,

The side pic was pretty good, but that hood pic takes the cake.

Nicole,

Is that more like it?

Hi Steve:

At a first glance I thought of some white police cruisers with blue stripes that I had seen before...

Now, if you would add those roof lights, you'd have the right of way EVERYWHERE, don't you think? Most people couldn't tell what the crest is when you zoom by... ;-)

Of cours I recognized the Porsche logo - after all, it has the city crest of my beloved home town integrated in it! (Yes, the black horse on yellow is the Stuttgart city crest...)

To set the record straight: I have never worked for Porsche - some friends of mine do, though. But I have worked in the office of a large auto body, paint and mechanics shop for two years after high school (before going to college), and know the artistic value of your work.

Believe it or not, I have personally prepped and sprayed some fenders and bumpers during that time - not on customer cars, but on my own and a friend's. Just to get a feeling for how it works.

Later, while working for a graphics arts supplies company, I got a little bit of experience with the airbrush - on paper (but I still have the airbrush and have even tried it for touch-ups).

You've got to try everything once. Or twice. And be creative... :-)
