Nope. Those are a shadow from a window sticker the kids made when they were young. See the later picture taken after the sun was no longer casting shadows.

That's pretty much a wrap. Second coat is on. Once it dries, I will flip and reinstall the seats and yoke.

Wow! That's way too pretty to actually use. I say hang it from a high vaulted ceiling, and proudly display it as artwork! :cool:

Unbelievable!

I didn't think you could wow me anymore than you already have, but WOW! :eek:

What a beautiful wrap up of, like Dennis said, a work of art.

Congratulations! :cool:
