One of the best concept artists in the movie industry is a Mopar E Body fan

http://ebodies.blogspot.com/ which has about 90-100 variation on the Barracuda, which seem to be a side effect of his buying a 72 or 73 Barracuda and making it a project that he's covering on his other blog http://beckkustoms.blogspot.com/

Artist Darrell Mayabb had a booth at the Grand National Roadster show, but didn't want any of his illustrations photographed

He'd have had a much better post, but as you'll see from his website, he's scared to death that you'll actually see any of his work large enough to enjoy it, unless you pay for it. Well, good luck with that philosophy.

This is just the most pathetic post for an artists work you'll ever see here. But few artists are such dumbasses as to keep you from seeing the work they are trying to sell. Just check out his website http://www.automotivegraffiti.com/galery_main_page.html and you'll probably agree.

The sculptures of J Nesse... oh wow! Here are a couple, go to his website for lots more!

Art made of various parts and pieces, 1972, Don Potts, "My First Car"

It was shown in galleries, but it seems his agent got greedy, and Don wrote a long article about the process... but had his art crushed in a crusher instead of selling any of them. That cool motor? A McCullan drone engine. Yeah, I had to know!

http://www.ar-t.org/Salient_Words/In_Preparation/Last_Performance/last_performance.html for the story of the demise

Road and track magazine described the art this way :

THE FIRST CAR of Don Potts is actually an extraordinary assemblage—a concours d’elegance of one man’s work. The title itself has a sort of parallel to Tom Swift and his Electric Runabout and the objects themselves are resonant with the objects of a now—lost American boyhood—an American Flyer wagon, a soap box derby car, a first bicycle—but here raised to the Nth power of imagination.

The craftsmanship is literally stunning--but it is no more important to know that Potts’s spent six years on this creation than it is to know Michaelangelo’s back bothered him in painting Sistine Chapel. The Potts car is simply there in ultimate perfection.
