Tin Lizzie

This is a 1926 Ford Model T Racer also known, as well as other Model T's as "Tin Lizzies"!  This Racer is a stock Model T with a lighter body shell and a souped up engine.

It could get up to 90 miles per hour! This particular Model T is typical of race cars of the 1920s. They were driven to and from the race track.

Most had no top or windshield as opposed to the image here.

This image has been converted to High Dynamic Range (HDR) by combining three different exposures, and then incorporating the results into a digital painting.

Packard Automotive Art

This is a cool 1932 Packard 900 Roadster. Packard sort of took a backseat to other automotive manufactures volume-wise but, the quality of their cars, innovations were superior.

This particular Packard has adjustable shock absorbers that was available by mechanical linkage on the dashboard. Wow!

Check out the Fly Fishing Pole and Creel! I converted the Packard image into a paintography renditon!

1937 Cord 810 Phaeton

This is one of the most beautiful Cords I have ever seen. The burgundy paint is absolutely gorgeous!
   
Versus other model Cords, this 810 Phaeton lacked a lot of showy chrome...the 810 had hidden door hinges and rear-hinged hood.

This particular model is not supercharged so you are not seeing the chrome-plated external exhaust pipes mounted on each side of the car.

Popular Classic Sports Car

Of all the classic sport cars, the Shelby Cobra is one of the most popular. Carroll Shelby, in the early sixties, created the most sought-after American muscle car in history.

The very first Cobra ever produced sold in August 2016 for $13.75 million. Wow! The one pictured here is a kit car but, still impressive!

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!

1929 Model A Ford Hot Rod

The Ford Model A, along with other models, were produced from 1928 to 1931. It followed the highly successful Model T which was in production for some eighteen years.

They sold for $385!  Wouldn't it be nice to purchase a brand new car, today for $385?

Between Model Ts and "As", many subsequent purchasers of these great and classic cars have converted them into hot rods. Some bought them in deplorable condition and restored them to perfection.

This Model A Ford Roadster hot rod is a good example of a restored "A". It has beautiful turquoise paint with gold, yellow, white detail.

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!

The Cord Car

This is a 1936 Cord 810 Westchester Sedan on display at the Western Antique Aeroplane and Automotive Museum in Hood River, Oregon (WAAAM).

Besides Mercedes Gullwings, Packard Phaetons, Auburn Speedsters, one of the coolest cars to ever come down the pike. I want one!

One of the headlight covers looks like it's not working...I don't care, I'll take it anyway.

I will even take the plane next to it...it matches the Cord. Although, sigh, the garage maybe a tad bit crowded with both.

Hey, I'll even take the model plane next to the front bumper...it matches, too! Following is a cool book on Cords sold through Amazon. You owe it to yourself to check it out!
