Mr. Eastcoast goes to Detroit, and meets Chip Foose! I accidently ran into him at show, and what a show this was. I donated 4 premade art panels, one toilet seat, a toolbox, and two art prints to the Pinstripers Jamboree there, all proceeds from my work and others, 130 stripers there! went to make a wish foundation. This is the second biggest car show in US, and I was one of the stripers! While there I also pinstriped a moon salt flat hubcap with a Von Dutch eye and some jig-jags. This is one show you cannot miss!!.....and, I was actually signing autographs...and getting my picture taken doing the work, really which surprised me
Yes, it's legite...Chip Foose signed my pinstripe sword, now retired from it's duty.
Chip and my friend Doug at the show.
This seat with Dutch rabbit & eye brought $60
This piece was unique, metal flaked, eyeballs looking into reflection of themselves, brought $120
Me, again, caught in action...and there is Doug trying to take me out of action with that bowling pin!
The final project, a salt flat racing disc, done on sight at the show, a dutch eyeball and some of eastcoast pinstriping all around it. Pretty much had alot going for me....the shirt from Gene Mennor & my signed pinstripe sword from Chip, couldn't have been a better day.
Some of my work on display at the show
Detroit in 2007, yes, I have returned.......
A panel I donated to TGI Fridays in Troy Mi, you should have seen me striping at the bar, so nice when anything was on the house
