NY AutoFest3 to feature "Car-Toons"

[LeoC2]

We've just added another vehicle to the New York AutoFest3 Invitational on July 18, 2010 in Hicksville, NY. Come see Robert Luczun's "Car-Toons," a 1928 Ford Model AR Roadster Pickup covered in a century of pop culture icons.

A rolling history of the comic art form, with airbrushed renderings ranging from The Yellow Kid (first published in 1896) to today's South Park characters. Luczun spent more than 2,000 hours-over a year and a half-painting the truck.

"Cartoons appeal to all of us, no matter what age," says Luczun. "Our first instinct when we see figures like Snow White or the Jolly Green Giant is to touch them-see that they are real. Kids are going to want to touch the car when they see it, and that's okay. It's part of the magic."
