Super Groovy Graphics are on!

My HR Pufnstuf themed MINI is coming along. For those that aren't familiar, HR Pufnstuf was a kids show here in the states about a very strange island. Most are convinced the show's creators were a bit on the hippy side :D. The antagonist on the show was "Witchiepoo" who tried to steal the magic flute from Jimmy. She sang a song called "Oranges Poranges" so when I first saw the VO MINI I knew immediately what I'd name her.

Here's a graphic from the show so you'll understand where the design came from.

Hey I am 73 and have never seen the show. But I like the colors on your car. Good job.

I haven't. It's on my Christmas or Birthday list, assuming I can figure out my needs.

I like it a lot. looks like it was really well laid down, the edge looks real good along the spoiler.

I actually saw your post on /r/mini yesterday. I saw the colors and then realized i know that car.

I used to watch that show when I was a kid. Love that you named it 'Witchypoo'. Very cool!
