I drove my car to get a haircut a couple of weeks ago. When parking, I gentleman in a Porsche pulled in next to me and said "nice car". I thanked him and said "so is yours". I was thinking that was the end of our conversation but he proceeded to tell me that he was a friend of Carroll Shelby. I'm thinking to myself "sure you are" but I took the bait and inquired. He proceeded to show me pictures of he and Carroll Shelby taken at Mr. Shelby's 80th birthday party. Turns out this guy was an invited guest because Mr. Shelby liked his artwork. His name is Michael Ledwitz and he does paintings of cars. I hope I'm not in violation of forum rules but I want to share some samples of his work and his website. His website is www.michaelledwitz.com. Attached are some samples that he texted me.

What a cool conversation!

And I really like the colors in the painting with the Mercedes.

Those paintings are great. Not every artist can paint cars well. Thanks for sharing the story.
