37 Ford Roadster Art

Put the top down and cruise the boulevard in this pristine 1937 Ford Convertible! When this automobile came out, you could have purchased it in the seven hundred dollar range.

Now days, if you wanted to purchase one this nice it would probably be in the seventy thousand dollar range! Anyway, you can get a print of this classic on my website a lot cheaper!

1937 Packard Convertible

Packard was an outstanding luxury automobile produced from 1899 to 1958. Pictured is a 1937 Packard Convertible.

Probably Packard would still be around today if they had not bought Studebaker in the fifties to compete with Chevrolet...a major mistake that put them out of business.

Most folks don't know that Packard outsold Cadillac until about 1950.

1937 Ford Panel

The following 1937 Ford Panel was captured at a car show in Oregon. There were many outstanding classic cars and trucks displayed at the show and this beautiful panel truck was one of them.

To really get the full effect you have to see a panel like this in person. Many, old cars and trucks start out as real projects and take a lot of blood, sweat, tears and money to complete.

The 1937 Ford, both car and truck, featured a more rounded look than what Ford had previously been producing. The front grille was V-shaped and didn't a pentagon shape, as on the 1936 model.

The image has been converted to a digital painting that I hope you enjoy. If you would like to explore this image, or others, please see links below!

Vintage And Prestige Automobiles!

The Cord Automobile is one of the most beautiful cars ever made. And, certainly, among the most prestigious and innovative automobiles made at the time!

I captured many angles of the car...even being able to sit in the Cord and photograph the interior. And, I was privileged to spend a lot of time talking to the owner about his automobile.

I circled and circled the car. I did not find any flaws in a car that was eighty years old. When I sat in the car, everything interior-wise, like the dashboard looked dated, like it should. But, it looked brand new.

What blew my mind is that, hardly anyone was looking at the Cord. Folks were off gawking at the hot rods and eating hot dogs.

Most were oblivious to this beautiful automobile, which was a shame!

Cord was the brand name produced by the Auburn Automobile Company from 1929 to 1932 and again in 1936 and 1937.

The founder, E.L. Cord was responsible for building different and innovative cars. Unfortunately, they didn't always turn a profit.

However, you have to think about the era and the Great Depression. That had a lot to due with it.

This image has been converted to High Dynamic Range Photography (HDR) and, also into a digital painting. Further, I changed the image that was in color to a selenium finish that I hope you enjoy. If you would like to explore this image, or others, please see links below!
