"Garage Art"

I didn't find a garage art thread here, so I thought I'd start one.

I just hung this on my wall. Left over engine bronze paint, sheetmetal from a Toronado hood, an old sattelite dish, and a rocket from a 54 Olds (I think).




Roberts Oldsmobile in Auburn, Wa had this sign. I lived near there as a kid and remember this sign.

Somewhere around here is a 56 Olds hood ornament... Now, I know what to do with it!

Nice custom work! I like that. I would have loved to have that big original sign tho!!
I have a small collection of street signs and home made traffic lights on my garage walls, in the few areas of free wall space...

Me too. But I'm sure my wife and the HOA wouldn't want to see that mounted above the garage.

Window covering

Used wood and chain to hang mud flaps to cover the top part of the windows.
