I'd guess you'd have to line the door with ply or some flat sheeting before applying the posters to an uneven surface like that. Would be a lot easier on a wall or normal door. It would be nice to have one,though. Cheers, Willie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spin Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 That is very tempting, I'm building a new garage out of sight of the street and a photo like that may be an ideal finishing touch. Cool link, more to be found thereabouts too; http://www.urbanghostsmedia.com/2010/11/abandoned-aircraft-airfields-airbases-airport-terminals/ I keep looking at those old hulks and picturing a second life for some of the bits, a la motoart.

A bit more recycling - http://www.bobvila.com/slideshows/2052-aviation-aesthetics-second-flights-for-salvaged-aircraft?utm_source=scribol.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=scribol.com It would be great to turn the clock back, I always used to like the local scrap yard back in the 70's that wrecked a lot of aircraft. Still have an old go-kart we fitted out with a helicopter seat & other a/c parts. They had an almost complete propliner in the yard as well as cockpits, front ends & other sections. All long gone now. I suppose we took it for granted back then, but it's all hard to get now. Cheers, Willie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
