![]() The first of the cars, painted on the 17th Street side of Harrington Galleries, was a pink car with the letter W on the door, and with the number 5 on the rear bumper. The car itself had lips at its front and eyelashes on the headlights. A pink parasol protected the driver from excess sunlight.
