    Hello,


    This year, I was contemplating what kind of Santa Claus Hot Rod would come flying in the air late at night. With the times upon us and the old age thing going on, despite the main, old age guy flying around every December, I decided to have him ride around in a custom Nomad style Cadillac Station Wagon.

    No one has made this model that stems from fastback 1949 Cadillac Sedan. At first, the station wagon by itself would be the room full of magical, endless supply of gifts. Then, with more thought about expanding families and grand children, he needed a streamlined matching 49 Cad trailer to hold “everything.”

    If a bunch of reindeer pulling a sled full of presents can do it, every year, then why not a custom 1949 Cadillac Nomad Station Wagon with a custom trailer? YRMV

    I have posted this before but it is the season again! This is an oil painting my mom did about 25 or 30 years ago that I digitally updated to add in my Dodge. IMG_3592.jpeg

    I had previously posted the '70 Camaro, and the '70 GTO for a three car shirt design. Here is the finished piece.

    This is not my work, but someone not far from us did this wood burning from a picture we gave them. 100_1228.JPG
    From this picture. 100_1148.JPG
    Anyway, we think it is pretty cool art.

    I found seven of Rusty1's aliens sneaking around this week. They must be responsible for the sticks of "Dinomite" laying around loose in the yard. I hope there is plenty of luck saved in the horse shoe nailed up beside the office door! Thanks to all of our artists for another great show!

    and took the leap in to Hot Rods!
    THANKS FAS!

    I understand I love FAS. I’m relatively new and FAS is my favorite thread.
