Yard art.
« on: June 30, 2014, 12:39:09 PM »
Well some times life gets to busy to finish our car projects on the schedule we would like. I was hoping to have the 32 done by now but between trying to enjoy the kids, work, and procrastination. It looks like it will be next year.

Here are some pictures of  2 Olds and 1 Chevy ornaments mounted to band steel. I think I have a total of $10 in them all.

OK, Refresh me on the rules. If is attached to something and is partly elevated it is 'Yard Art"but if it is lying in the dirt or a big pile it's junk? I'm just trying to get my defense in order because I know my wife is going to open this debate any day now. ;D

Looks good. All my yard art is hiding behind my shed. Well it's still in the yard, she just can't see it and in her defence mine isn't as pretty as your hood ornaments. TOO HOT FOR ME IF THAT IS READING CORRECT.

A friend of mine did use a model A pickup as yard art there was no floor in the bed and that's where he planted a tree..... 15 years ago

Nice work with the hood ornaments / yard art!  I know what you mean about life being busy.  Keep plugging away at the 32.  You'll get there.
