: Can the car or motorcycle manufacturer
: object to whatever image is painted on the hood
: or gas tank? Even if Disney gives permission
: to put Donald Duck on the hood of a VW Bug,
: couldn't Volkswagon sue the owner of the vehicle,
: the painter, and Disney for putting the likeness
: of a "duck" on a "bug"? Would anything be
: different if it was a generic duck and not the
: likeness of Donald Duck, even though VW still
: doesn't like their car associated with a duck?

: I just saw three Jet Blue (the airline) logos
: on a three car caravan of VW Bugs. Of course
: Jet Blue gave permission. But is it likely that
: VW did as well?

: One last permutation on this theme: would it
: matter what the original product was? In other
: words we were originally talking about cars and
: motorcycles. What if we were talking about
: bicycles, video arcade machines, boxed chocolates,
: softdrink bottles/cans, etc.?

Dear Mr. Schartz,
Once you own it you can do what you please and take legal responsibility for what you do.
