 Posted: Sat Sep 04, 2004 5:54 pm Post subject: Awesome Spare Tire Cover!! |
 |
|
I have a white 1978 Westy. We decided to replace it's ratty spare tire cover with a new hand-painted one. My 16-year-old daughter designed and painted it with a West Coast/Vancouver Island theme. She used Acrylic paint with sealant to protect it from weathering. Check it out, here:

Cheers,

Your daughter is sooo talented - she should consider artwork for career if not a hobby (probably already is her hobby). Great work daughter of Rhonda!!
