Best flame job in the hot rod world



Mike Lavallee in Everett Wa. invented and perfected the technique of the most realistic painted flames. I watched Mike paint a car on a Chip Foose show, "Rides" I think, or maybe "Overhaulin' " on the Discovery channel a couple of years ago, and was amazed.

The best description is here http://everything2.org/index.pl?node_id=1812342 , and Mike's website is here http://www.killerpaint.com/gallery/index.html

Just driving along and spotting these in driveways, crazy ain't it?

This hasn't moved in about 14 months, damn cool though

This looks like a land speed, salt flat, or dry lakes runner... wow.
