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.

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