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!

You can purchase this image in a variety of ways, wall art, life style, apparel, greeting cards, home decor, phone cases! Please see the link below this image!

1948 Packard Super 8 Touring Sedan

Packard automobiles are among the best luxury cars ever made. At one time, they outsold Cadillac.

Through the years, they were somewhat profitable but, at a point they decided to buy Studebaker to compete with Chevrolet and, that was their demise. Personally, I am more into the older Packards like, 1916 to about 1950 versus the later models.

For the most part, they were classy, well-built and absolutely gorgeous. This great old Packard was featured in a car show on the Oregon Coast.

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!

1947 Ford Club Coupe

This 1947 Ford Club was featured at a car show in Newport, Oregon. Actually, this model Ford is an  aborted 1942 model because of the Second World War.

Further, the 1947 model was identical to the 1946 except Ford then restyled the body slightly first by moving the parking lights from above the grill to below each headlight. However, this is not reflected in the image here.

That could be because, in the first weeks of the 47's production the car was the same as the 1946. As the 47 progressed, exterior moldings were changed from grooved to a smooth design.

They received a new hood ornament. A new hubcap design became available. The interior dash color was changed from red accent to gold.

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

1937 Ford

There is a certain charm to old, classic cars and, this 1937 Ford Cabriolet is no exception. It was featured at a car show in Toledo, Oregon which is seven miles from the Central Oregon Coast.

I don't know the history of this particular Ford. The owner was missing so I was unable to get any particulars.

I processed the image into High Dynamic Range Photography and then converted it to an Impressionist Painting (Digital Painting). The "Old Salt in" the background gave me permission.
