I've been living in my renters' paradse for some time now and thought that it was time to ditch the hand-me-downs and the yard-sale treasures and find some decor that says "I love cars" but that still has some class to it. While it's cool to have a race tire and a piece of glass as your coffee table, it's not exactly sophisticated.
I deperately need a new bed and while searching I stumbled on the perfect one. Over at Jake's Chop Shop I found one made from a 1959 Mercury nose with a flame headboard—that's got me written all over it! With the bedroom looking sharp, next up was to see what I could find for the living room, and it didn't take me long to find these awesome little end tables made from classic steering wheels and hubcaps. They're definitely a little classier than tire furniture and they have an almost martini-glass look to them. And what better to go between those tables than the '59 Cadillac tail-fin couch from the Route 66 Store—sharp-looking and sharp to the touch. All that's left is to find friends who can lift a 600lb couch. Any takers ?
