Well, my wife and I just finished refinishing the upstairs of our house so our 20 month old son could have his own room. We are decorating it and I want to put an automotive poster up on the walls. I can't force him to love what I love, but I can influence him!

Please put a picture of what you think the best poster would be for my son! I'm would prefer one with no words or logos, just a cool ride in a good spot. Muscle cars, rat rods, hot rods, lead sleds, trucks, tuners, bare metal, primer, paint, doesn't matter.

That GTO is pretty amazing, seems like something a kid would love.

He has the Cars movie, has the Cars toy cars, has the Cars puzzle. I'd say he has enough exposure to that movie. I'm looking to get him into REAL cars, not by removing his Cars (movie) things, but just by having some real ones around. I've already started buying him tons of Matchbox cars, picking out ones that I think are classics. I still remember my favorite cars from my childhood, whether they were Matchbox cars, posters, folders, or trapper keepers.

That's what she liked the most as well. It's beautiful, but it is spendy! Must be a very high quality print. I'm partial towards the old truck myself, but I have 2 that look very close to that in the weeds. Should just get a pic of them!
