Wade lives on a 1-1/2 mile long dirt
road in the
Texas hill country.
According to Wade, it takes a minimum of two weeks for a car to develop the necessary base of dust. A bit of morn-ing fog helps "set" the
dust.

His creations exist only until the next car wash - or rain.
He

except in
photographs..
