If you're gonna have one of those, you need the accessory delivery van and the dog.

Well, the top photo has been post processed using Lightroom4 with Matt Kloskowski's presets and Topaz Adjust to add to the depth of the paint, but yes, that is a very deep paint job and absolutely smooth. The reflections you are seeing are about 30 feet away.

Yeah, so would Peterson. It was still in "barn find" condition when I saw it in 2008. I took a peak in the windows when I was there and it looked like it could be fantastic.

Did you see the exhibit when you took that picture. I just happened to luck into it, I took my GF to LA to get some publicity photos done and the photog was about 10 blocks away from the Peterson, so I went while she was doing the shoot.

You would have loved it. It's a shame the website doesn't have more info. I wonder if you can buy the catalog book online. I was a little disappointed they didn't have a Travco (or the original "Frank Mobile Home" the first mass produced RV) or a VW Westfalia Camper. Oh well.
