Your work is jaw dropping, breath taking fantastic. I don't understand the "Canadian Rat Fink" thing. Your work is really stand alone stuff. The kind of work that will make some look to become "The American/German/Whatever Ron Gibbs"

Thanks everyone!It's great to be able to share some pics. Mark, the CdnRatFink thing came from the fact I was always a Big Ed Roth fan ,he was one of the original custom painters from stripeing to monster shirts and show cars and bringing to life the character RAT FINK! Building his models as a kid,I'm also a big gearhead and right into custom vehicles and pretty much anything Automotive related.My license plates on my two trucks say RAT FINK & RAT FNK so everyone knows me by it.Someone did an article in a magazine and called me the Canadian Rat Fink and it kind of stuck with everyone ,so being Canadian it all fit like that.I can say I was honhoured to meet Ed at the SEMA show a few years back ,talked quite a bit ,met a couple times and he gave me his # in Manti Utah and I talked with him on the phone not too long before he died.At this years SEMA show I was able to meet 3 of his sons along with Bob Spina who was a good freind of Eds.Each year at SEMA I have run into Bob who is a great guy and likes to talk about ED. SueLynn they are Highly trained dogs that sit real nice and don't move!LOL! Peter I have been getting asked so much lately to give lessons that I am seriously concidering it .

Ron giving lessons, I would not be surprized if that's part of why Fraser wants to talk to you. And Yes, you have been My hero also since last summer.
