Mustang Art

I promised it in the photo frame thread, so here it is.

Another example of " Mustang parts for furniture".

This fine piece of art has gotten me much positive feedback from friends that are into modern art and sculpting. It is a laminate of rusted metal, layers of bondo, fiberglass, some rivets and some orange primer and more rusted metal.

It graces a sideboard in our living room and it's actually a piece that has been cut off the Mustang's body during its restoration. (Don't ask me what it was. It's so rotten, nobody was able to identify it yet)

I added a fancy pedestal made of a metal rod and some slate and, voilà, a modern sculpture!

As I've wandered through art galleries over the years I had often had the thought that many modern art sculptures were just rusted bits of cars. Now my suspicions have been confirmed.

Rusty car art hummmm.

That's is awesome, I've always found rust to be cool looking besides the obvious pain it causes.

Rust looks awesome almost everywhere except on cars.
