Fan Uses Sharpie, Paint to Make Blackhawks Mobile

Chicago - One die-hard Blackhawks fan is using the family car to show his team pride. The car is now the Blackhawks Mobile for the Tolley family.

John and Christine Tolley really know how to wear their Blackhawks colors. Their commitment to the Indian goes well beyond the hats and shirts and jerseys. Their loyalty is as deep as the road to the Stanley Cup is long.

Their 1991 Dodge Spirit is painted with Blackhawks players.

He started with Patrick Sharp using what else? A sharpie and some touch car paint.

As the Hawks advanced in the playoffs he kept painting and added some all time greats alongside the current stars.

Toews and Magnusons, just to name a few.

When we caught up with him outside his home in Morgan Park he was working on Anti Niemi on the trunk.
