Thanks Tony. I'm not an active member as the $200/yr is pretty steep for me. But I always loved the CAF since I was a kid, and so far no one has complained that I'm not a member in spite of my contributions. I designed the Cobra Den artwork and Tshirts for the CenTex Squadron, a Tshirt for the Yellow Rose Squadron and I'm working on nose art for the Dixie Wing for the P-51 currently. I'm also working on nose art that I'm painting on the Grissom Air Museum's C-47 in April, nose art and Tshirts for their B-17, as well as a new identity/logo for the Museum itself. You've probably seen some of that stuff pop up on WIX.

"Django" is from the gypsy jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt, a moniker that I picked up back in my heavy swing dancing days. It seemed to fit as he was one of my guitar heroes and it kinda stuck. I play guitar in a rockabilly band as well.

I did an interview with Warbird Radio last week. Here's the link if anyone is interested.

The nose art looks great on the B-24.
We flew with them at Midland in 2006 when it was still Diamond Lil
(I think the repaint went down soon after).


Do you design Old V-8 Ford T-shirts?

Thanks! Yeah, that's when Gary started the rebuild. We painted it in 2007.

I have my V8th Air Force with the Flying Tiger Style Flathead that I did which are available. I also have the 1936 75th Anniversary prints (car or truck) that I have listed here in the classifieds.

I'm interested; how about a link?

Here is a photo of "SHADETREE". He is driving his 1935 FORD Cabriolet. I took this photo, while driving through the mountains of West Virginia. We had just been to the "DOO WOP" Car Show in Charleston, W. Va., which was covered by Dennis Gage of the TV Show, "MY ANTIQUE CAR".
SHADETREE is wearing his 496th Air Force hat and is always looking for other 496th veterans.
