Default I got bored...

One of my pet peeves - being tailgated...back in the old days, I wouldn't think twice about stomping on my brakes, the trailer hitch and steel bumper of the old pickup could really get the point across... But it's different with the Monte, so I've taken a different approach...



It's all hand-painted - no decals or anything like that...done with lacquer-based model railroad paints then clear-coated with Dupont acrylic enamel clear.

It's gotten some chuckles...

I can send you the artwork - you could trace it and paint it yourself if you want.

The easiest way to get rid of tailgaters is just to get over into the slow lane :p but I love the decal :-)

No problem C - I'll mail it out. It's not complicated at all, only 4 colors - black, dark gray, light gray, and red-brown. If you can trace and finger-paint, you should be ok!!

LnL06SS - It's not about moving over to the slow lane...There's very few cars I NEED to move over for. In most cases up here, this happens on a winding 2-lane with a 45mph speed limit and no place to prove a point to the offending rear-ender.

Oh - it's not a decal - it's art man!!
