Hi all,

A while back I picked up the following little picture off eBay for a few buck, and I'm about to hang it in my shed.

I'm just curious as to whether anyone knows the artist, background, or whether the drawing was done from a real van?

I like it because it's similar to my van - WB with Statesman front, statesman mirrors, gts guards etc.

The thought had crossed my mind - I like the look of it, although I think the other half may not go for the whole grim reaper thing.

Looking at the picture, I'd say the van is based on Dennis Anderson's van Desire just with a mural added to the side. Wink

This is before Dennis put the billet wheels one, I'll look for a more recent photo.

That looks pretty close. I'd be interested in the artist - do you think he drew it himself?
