I've seen the truck in person, and I walked around it for nearly 30 minutes, and every time I made another lap, I saw something I missed.

This style is not my cup of tea, but I greatly respect the talent that these guys have. I look at it from the artistic standpoint, and it's amazing what they can do with an airbrush.
There is no signature on the mural, the pics I took are not really clear but it truly is beautiful , though not my cup of tea also. Talking with the previous owner tonite, he said the previous owner paid $2700 for the tailgate mural and a mural on the glove box door. I haven't peeled the decal off the glove box door yet but previous owner said there is a mural of Poncho's wife. I will get to it this weekend and I will post the pics.
