Garage Art Episode 1: So what's this other project, I hear you ask? Well, as you know fixing rusty old cars cost money. So one day earlier in the year, I was scratching my head wondering how I could go about making myself some extra coin that I could stick into Mario, without feeling too guilty. Sell the kids? Stick up a bank? Make meth? I even thought about some legitimate ways to make money.....get a second job, budget better and save!!
Then it dawned on me. Make something out of the un-useable and rusty old LandCruiser bits. Make a piece of man-cave, garage art and sell it! How difficult can it be? A bit of rust, a bit of patina, more rust. Something I could knock over in a weekend!
So this is what I started with. Two bent and rusty guards, one completely knackered bonnet (That's a 'hood' my heathen friends, north of the equator). One twisted headlight surround panel, a bezel and two dirty old indicators full of cobwebs and deadly spiders.
