Long ago...sometime around 2004 I saw one of these parked at Khalid Sb.'s (Westridge), parked there for number of days. I was there to get my footboards mounted from Arshad on my 70.

could it possibly be one of the cars that were passing thru...M&M rally or something

I have absolutely no idea and pity that I didn't ask anyone about it either. Now though, I wish I had asked about it, since you asked.

there were some amazing cars in that line-up. I remember there was a '54 Jaguar XK 140 that was owned / driven by the ex-CEO of M&M. I took my son Abdullah (5) along and he asked him." Do you know the name of your car?" The owner played along and said "No" so Abdullah took him to the back of the car and pointed out..J..A..G..U..A..R... Its a Jaguar! His next question was " Can I drive this?" At which point the owner said.."maybe not right now, but I can take you for a spin if you'd like" so the two of them went for a drive on the Constitution Ave.

..and I so wanted to do that myself but couldn't ask him...I guess my 5 yr old beat me to it...

And I have a feeling that a lot of magazines (online & printed) would be making fat money selling these pictures taken at the NYC Traffic Jam and all other shows she attended and you never get to get the royalty

I get my satisfaction from the fact that wherever they print the pictures they have to explain it is the Pakistan truck art...its better than hearing Pakistan drone attack's or Pakistan suicide bombings or ...you get my drift?

[nmshaikh]

still have some pictures to share from the NY show.
