Thought this was amusing. Let's see some more if you got ink.

Found on Hooniverse. Looks like an RT20 Toyopet Corona but some things don't quite match up...

I dig it! :D I always thought the s30's body line would make for a good tattoo, or the silhouette.

Does anyone have the Toyota Logo images. I've been searching for an hour now and can only find some crappy photos. I remember the Starlet, Crown, Tercel, Corolla and Camry all had like animal or object type symbols on the steering wheel. The Celica had the dragon...etc... I will totally get one of them tattooed if i can get some clean clear images to bring in.

I think the Starlet horn button actuallylooked a lot like the Jager deer if I remember right.... mine is missing the badge so I dont know for sure.

I think cars are a bit transient for tattoos. I reckon you'll be regretting it like the tards who get Fox Racing ink....

That's why we want classic car tattoos :). The Crown logo has been around since the 50s.

I have a crumby "Z" from the 240Z badge on my ankle that is pretty shot looking by now. Not worth showing really.

I agree as far as that Ben, design/style icons are a different story to whatever brand/badge*/model old car you own that year, you know what I mean?

As in a tat of a Z06 will look dated quickly, but the original navy inspired Corvette insignia with the flags wouldn't.


*With the exception of icons/symbols/images that are actually graphically interesting, ref Crown.
