Titanium key chain for a Volvo P1800 from1971

[Arnaud Van Tilburgh]

My oldest son Jasper recently bought a American Import Volvo P1800 from1971. As I also owned him a present, I had the idea to make him an Titanium Key Chain for his car.
So I used the original logo on the car for the design. Original the background is black.
The size of the shield is 23 mm wide.
And As I don’t have good experience with stippling the background really uniform, for this I used a ball bur to remove the background. Then hammered it as flat as possible and then used an airbrush sandblaster with aluminium oxide.

It isn’t black as the night, but very almost. Anyway, I suppose he will like it.

NICE work Arnaud! You do a lot of interesting work on Ti.

The title caught my eye, as one of my favorite cars and my first nice car was a 1967 Volvo P1800S.

I attend a lot of car shows and very rarely see any P1800's. Your son's car looks to be very nice!

Thanks Peter, could have been your car as it is imported from California, but the year and model don't match. :biggrin:
