Coop, one of my favorite artists, went to the Mooneyes Xmas party, and took a ton of pictures of some of the most beautiful road vehicles you could ever hope to aim your photon receptors at.
Robert Williams' booth was across from us, and he showed up in his recently finished '32 roadster. Lots of people were bummed out when Bob finally painted his roadster, as it was pretty much the first car back in the early eighties to deliberately go for the unfinished, primered (I won't use the "R-word") look. Folks were even more puzzled by the crazy paint job he created, which is a sort of a mish-mosh of styles between old dirt-track racers and sixties dragster graphics. I didn't dig it at first myself, but it has grown on me, and I really dig it now.
