Motoring Art

Yes, most of mine is on four wheels and slowly oxidising but what sort of pictures are you allowed/do you have on the wall at home? Or is it a Fezza flat 12 glass-topped coffee table?

 

I've various bits of cars I owned littered about the place - an early Saab turbo badge, Alfa badge, part of an Alfa dashboard, a 2cv cam timing gearwheel, Jag and Alfa camcovers and other odds and sods pulled off chod. A couple of Falcucci posters are framed.
 

Some of my fave art is the Bob Freeman (of Supercar and Classics fame), especially his annotated engine illustration art - which I haven't yet purchased, just marvelled at in my collection of Car and Supercar an... mags.

I think your pictures have evaporated. Try jpgs?

 

I used to have a Vauxhall 3.0 24 valve cylinder head on my mantelpiece for a few years, does that count?

Got a few old black and white street scenes from the local area that are chod-heavy, mainly relegated to the hallway.     Apart from a zoom lens shot of a derelict Riley RM that I enlarged and framed which can live in the loo (cos its Arty).   However, I get around the allocation limit by finding pics of Mrs Rocker in her younger days - pushing a Norman Nippy, leering out of a 100E and leaning on a Minor 1000.   These have free access to the rest of the house, as do any pics of cars I like which I manage to take photos of with her stood to one side of it....Conservatory is fair game though - usually quite a few bits living out there.   Downstairs loo has a Humber bonnet badge gathering dust on the windowsill, she seems to have overlooked that for about 10 years!    My mate once managed to get his Mk1 Mini into the house via the French doors and planks to finish connecting a newly installed engine.  That was his Mum's house, though, not his partners - I don't think he would get away with it now!
