 Making a sale in the showroom of the Mustang Connection. The Pepsi machine was made from a block of balsa wood with a photo of a 12 pack reduced to size. The picture behind the salesman head is my real 82 Mustang GT. |

This dealership was inspired by a small used car lot of the 70's, which I watched grow to one of the largest Mustang sales and restoration company in America. Of course the name was changed to protect the innocent. |

Left side service bay. The tire
changer is carved from a block of balsa wood, toothpicks,
and styrene plastic. The compressor, lockers, bench, and
drill press were ordered from a favorite website, and hand

package and lined with auto pinstripe tape.
