Janis Joplin's Psychedelic Porsche.

Joplin bought the Porsche in 1968 for $3500.00. She had it painted, from bumper to bumper and door to door, in a mural: landscapes, birds, butterflies, floating eyes, mushrooms and skull-like faces. Joplin was known to drive the car a lot around San Francisco. Fans would supposedly leave her notes tucked under the windshield wipers.
How did it come to have the psychedelic paint job? Lifebuzz.com reports that one of her roadies, Dave Roberts, did the original paint job. Some reports say it was stolen and the thief spray painted it gray. The car was recovered and driven by Joplin’s manager Albert Grossman as a courtesy car and later was taken back by the family. Joplin’s brother Michael restored it, and eventually artists Jana Mitchell and Amber Owen used photos to re-create the psychedelic mural.
It was displayed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for many years, on loan from her family.
I did see it at an exhibit of Psychedelic art at the deYoung Museum in San Francisco

Sold at auction by Sotheby's for $1.76M, a record for it's type.
