Seen it in person at SEMA it is actually a great looking car. It is a tribute to soldiers so it is acceptable. I believe the dad from Bullrun took that car. I recognized him but couldn't place the face til now.

I love it! I love seeing cars get paint jobs that are outside of the box and unconventional. I know a lot and I mean A LOT of people here will disagree, but I think it looks totally killer.

I don't like as a street car, but its a killer paint job for a race car. I like the meaning of it and you can tell that there was a lot of craftsmanship and hard work put into the final result....but its a bit to much for a daily driver lol.

From what I understand that paint job is a tribute to the AVG Flying Tigers in China in late '41. It's painted to look like their P-40B's.



As far as I'm concerned that's one of the coolest TA's ever recognising one of the coolest planes ever.

The gen rice kids on here just DO NOT get it!
I'll ask again, did they completely ban teaching history in our schools, deeming it not politically correct??

I've been trying for years to get some of those rising sun flag 'kill' stickers to **** off the ricers/JDM import fanboieeesss!!

just because it has something to do with history doesnt make it wonderful.... he asked if we liked it, not if it was a good idea to remember history with a paint job like this....

I love the detail of the aircraft panel rivets and the exhaust like the old war birds.
