the 'Panic' stop

Does anybody remember Car Toons magazine? They had some great artists
I always liked the exaggerated drawings they did, kinda like the zingers & spoilers. This was one of my favorite posters.

i took 2nd place in a custom contest on george trosleys drawings. the contest was to take one of his drawings and make a diecast of it. i did the vw on a dragster body.
and george sent me one of his cd's on his drawings for second place. first place was a drawing that he did. i really wanted to win that drawing. i still have the cd and the custom vw.

Thanks for the link, forgot about those. Look at the sticker on the bottom left, some of you might like that one.
