Art Cars Roll on Toyo
Toyo Tires latest association shows the company’s artistic side. Turner-prize nominated artist Andy Saunders decided to take his well honed welding rod to an unsuspecting Citroen 2CV and totally redesign it in the style of the artist Picasso. With asymetric styling, misshapen panels and Picasso’s trademarked misplaced ‘facial features’ the 2CV remains fully road legal, sporting a brand new set of TOYO 310’s to keep the MOT tester happy!
The car was unveiled as part of Toyo’s impressive stand at the recent Goodwood Festival of Speed. Launched to a mass of tabloid and broadsheet publicity, the car has also been booked up for a run of TV appearances. So what’s next for the Poole based artist? “I might do a Monet-deo or perhaps a Transit Van-Gogh,” he quipped. “In fact that one’s easy…I’ll just cut a door off!” For more of Andy’s amazing work visit http://www.andysaunderskustoms.com/.
