Bus ball art


Billy F. Gibbons designed and made this amazing looking "Bus Ball." 200702092010
My friend, Billy F Gibbons is an artist... Recently he sent me pictures of one of his latest rolling art creations, which he calls a Bus Ball. I thought his creation looked pretty cool, but the more I looked at his newly completed "Bus Ball", the more I was bothered. So, I sent Billy a message to ask him the obvious question. Where’s the dang tires? Really… a life long tire guy would surely ask that wouldn’t ya think? So, Billy knowing I was funnin’ him, responded that “the Coker skins [wide whites, of course], are stashed in the boot.! Sort of a James Bond arrangement where the tires unfold when required. By the way, the gas mileage is superb and the wind-resistance factor is greatly improved over the original design. “
