1936 Ford Coupe

 

Gary, you sent me to search this out. Painted 2014, Scott's channeled '36 survivor. Looks like I crudely 'shopped on a grille to look like the Wolesely/ Singer ? grille it originally had. Now has a '34 Ford grille. Bob tail, , old purple paint, neat old flathead car.
p.s cool stuff guys

 

Wow! Great start everyone. If we stopped here, it would still be one of the best Fridays. So Thanks! I drew this Deco styled truck last night. It would be fun to have something like this to take on our road trips. Its no particular model, but a combination of ideas. You guys get up very early, but then, so do I. Ron...

 

This is a photo of a Deco toy tin car.

 

A Nash Deco style hood ornament. { artsy}?

 

Heck, that thing Ron...'orright

 

...all kool stuff today,...here's the art I'm donating to the art auction at the Iron Invasion this weekend in Woodstock Illinois...

UPDATE!..Sat. evening:...the top board bid to $190.00
..the bottom board bid to $160.00...
thanks to all who bid on my work, it's all for a worthy cause.

 

My take on Cadzzilla. A Larry Ericson design. And my good friend Craig Naff, did all the metal work on her. It is one of my all time favorite cars. The only thing that's not just me, is the grill. But I do LOVE ZZ TOP!

 

Nice show so far. From the sketchbook:

Pencil, color pencil, marker, and some white correction fluid.

 

A few from the Hot Rod Hill Climb:

15 Charles Palmer - 1934 Ford Roadster - 1 by Mike Rogers, on Flickr

131 - Kris &amp; Gaila Elmer - 1931 Ford Roadster - 1 by Mike Rogers, on Flickr

313 - John Gunsaulis - 1932 Ford Roadster - 2 by Mike Rogers, on Flickr

 

I think that you will find that the original grille was actually from a Bentley--it was too wide to be either a Wolseley or a Singer.

Mooser , That Chebbie is as good as its gets! I tried to add color to the truck. Cheap dollar store water colors.

Not sure if mine qualifies, but here goes. The wife said she wanted a coat hanger for the foyer. My friend recently took down a barn that stood on their family farm for the past 150 years. He gave me a piece of their beautiful old barn wood which I think was aged to perfection. I had a 1930 Model A wrench and a 1931 Model A wrench that needed a home, then I punched out some data tags. Added a 1931 MN plate. I used gas piping for the hooks. All was going well with my project until I went to hang it. Annnnnd my wife hates it.

 

Some older art I did a while back...

 

I like it! Wives are the worst Art Critics. lol I was in an old garage, and this old board of keys were on the wall. I thought they were cool and artsy. And so they were just given to me free. Happy, Happy.

 

Cool stuff Ken! You sure it isn’t old art you did today. ( I kid...)

 

Bob - Very nicely down Sir!!!

 

Love the 55 Pontiac and 53 Chevy but that hot rod is killer...
