もはや使い込むのがもったいない程に全体も個個のパーツ一つ一つも、美しい!
このヨンマルは車ではない!?
つまりアートの世界、工(光)芸術品かも。
アイドルではなくて生涯現役。
化粧や整形(笑)とは異なる、本来の美しさを人が手を加える事で引き出す事が出来る深い可能性を持っています。
なんでこんなに心が躍るのか・・・
それはきっと、生活感が無い、ある意味「現実離れした姿」なのだからなんですよね。
私もレストアしたばかりのころは、もうまるで自分のじゃないような気がして・・・
その新鮮さをしばらくは楽しんだのですが、見ているぶんにはいいけど・・・やっぱり一緒に暮らすとなるとそうもいかなくなりますね。
こういう、誰にも染まっていない「非日常」的なヨンマルが見せる姿って
どこか芸能人や俳優に似てますね。。。
