You may be jumping to conclusions calling it hillbilly. There are certain signature features that indicate it could be from the other side of the tracks.
At any rate, bravo to the artist. My vision of Cragars works. |

The snorkel lights aren't yellow/orange! Other than that, nice modelling! Needs a fer more details here and there to really make it more realistic (trim rings, headlight textures, etc).

I like the raised white letter sitting up high version better than the dropped one...that looks very Pink Lady like to me.
By the way, we have the trucking lined up for the cross country haul...with a little luck Snorkelstang will be on its way this week!!
