Cobra at a gas station poster?

Anyone remember the nostalgic painting/drawing poster of a cobra parked in front of an old gas station that was available a few years back?

I can't find it on the sites I've checked. Is it still available?

Roger,

I have a picture of that on one of my CDs. I also think it is posted in one of the Galleries on here but don't know which one. If you can't find it, let me know and I will try to find the picture that I have and send it to you.

Thanks Ron.

If it's the same one I'm thinking about, it was (is?) available as a poster...I don't remember what size. Always thought it would be cool garage art.

If someone doesn't know of a site where I can still buy it, I'll take you up on your offer and have Walmart print me a poster size image.

Roger,

Yes it was available as a poster and I don't remember who sent me the picture of it. I just saw it and liked it and they emailed me a picture of the poster. I don't even remember who sent it to me or where you could get the poster from then as it was a couple of years ago.

Edit: Is this the one that you are referring to? I hope this works as when I try to edit a post all I get is an error in the corner of my screen and it won't go in until I go back to the forum.

It could be a model but I just remember seeing the picture and getting in touch with the guy that had it and he told me the old gas station was just a few miles from where he lives. And I thought that he said that was his Cobra in the picture as he had it on his garage wall. But that was a few years ago and I don't remember for sure.

Wasn't this a poster for Shamrock?

No, that's a computer rendering...

Very nice job with the lighting, shadows and reflections, but a bit more study into the shape of a the main subject (Cobra) would have made a world of difference.
