Austin-Healey

During the 1950s-60s Austin Healeys were extremely popular among sport car enthusiasts.
They are still popular!

However, they are a lot more pricier than they were when brand new.

This particular Healey was captured in Newport, Oregon. And, I have no idea what year or model.

Guessing, it is a series 100-6, circa 56-59.

I personally had a 1954 which I restored. It had a small engine compared to the newer models but, it was still a ball to drive.

This image has been converted to High Dynamic Range (HDR) by combining three different exposures to give the image more detail and color. Texture was added for a unique final image!

1930 Ford V8 Model A Hot Rod

A  Model A Ford Convertible Hot Rod is in pristine condition.

Of course, many modifications have been made to it since it was originally manufactured but, all for the better!  You could have purchased this fine roadster for around $1400 in 1930. Today, that might get you the tires!

This capture was made at a very busy car show! Any photographer will tell you that is is very difficult to photograph at car shows because of people, and usually some type of signage.

To be blunt, I was lucky to get this shot!

Hot Rodders refer the to Model  As as A-Bones. The Model A was Ford's number two success after the previous Model T.

The logic is kind of funny here...Model A following Model T...maybe should have been a "B' rather than "T".

Pullman Car Art

Virginia City, Nevada is home to this elegant Pullman Car. It sits out below the main street of town.

There is also a small collection of cabooses, on display along with this Car. The door on the back says "Private". Just a guess, but maybe it belonged to a railroad magnate at one time.

"Pullman Cars" are railroad sleeping cars and, are named after George Pullman who founded the company that built them, starting in the eighteen hundreds.

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.

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.

1929 Graham - Paige 612

In 1927, the three Graham brothers purchased the Paige-Detroit Motor Company, makers of Paige and Jewett automobiles. They had major success racing cars and they had a reputation for making quality vehicles.

The Graham-Paige shown here is one of them! It is a roadster that has been immaculately restored.


I photographed this at the Concours d'Elegance in Forest Grove, Oregon many years ago. The image has been converted to High Dynamic Range Photography to bring out more color and detail.


I then converted the image to a digital painting!

Cruisin' In A 1946 Austin-The Mouse Trap!

This is a 1946 Austin converted to a hot rod and, restored to perfection. You can bet it can tear up a drag strip.

The car is called the "Mouse Trap"! Maybe the owner was thinking, "I can build a better mouse trap and catch some unsuspecting mice!"  The Austin automobile was produced basically from 1938 to 1948.

Three different exposures were taken of the "Mouse Trap" and then converted to a High Dynamic Range (HDR) image. The final image was then converted to a digital painting!
