It is Studebakers from me this week. Two '63 Avanti's one with a sport style roof line, the other with a more formal roof line, body mods and Lincoln bumpers. and a '50 Studebaker business coupe lowered with '53 Buick side trim and headlights.

 

And away we go!



"We just need to shave another 1.2 seconds off our time."

I've been obsessed with this idea for a while now. I see a lot of Willys gassers. Coupes, pickups, and even a few sedans, all jacked up and hopped up for the quarter mile. But no woodies. I just googled "Willys woody gasser". nothing. It's like looking for a unicorn.

 

A young Alex Tremulis played hookie throught his school years to visit the Stutz and Duesenberg showrooms in Chicago where he'd sketch the magnificent cars. Duesenberg's Chicago sales manager recognized his talents and paid him for custom body sketches for his Chicago clients. Tremulis was paid $1.00 for a black and white and $2.50 for a color drawing. He would get next-day serrvice from Tremulis rather than having to wait the week or so from the Indianpolis office. Tremulis' Chicago-designed bodies were then badged under the Walker name, Duesenberg's coachbuilder for inside design jobs. This drawing was sold back to Tremulis by Strother MacMinn many, many years later... for $2.50!

<O

One of the cars this sketch created is coming up for sale at RM Auctions' Amelia Island sale this weekend. The 1935 Duesenberg Model SJ Convertible Coupe by Walker-LaGrande was built to Tremulis' design drawing. Two additional examples were also built. This one graces the cover of RM's catalog. Coincidentally, the back cover also features another well-known Tremulis design, Tucker #1003. Both just gorgeous!

 

wow Typikal, now that is a way to start a FAS! awesome stuff, i'll probably check them out a few more times, i love the way you handle the details.

from me this week, some random little sketchbook drawings:








going to do a two-color screenprint of this one^

 

ok ill jump in..

here we have a 1957 chevy tailgate, painted 69 chevy hugger orange, with hand painted letters. the pictures dont really pick up the neon colors. its 4500 white neon over the letters, and orange neon for the border.

 

Man that's awesome. Nice work.

Amazing and inspiring start to FAS! I feel like I have been away for weeks, which in fact I have. More GNRS images from me.

Everything you have done for the last three weeks have been great. This one is especially awesome!

 

Some lines we layed down on my 39 at the Hamburg,NY show this weekend. I did the female form in black and my friend Howie outlined it with the off white.

 

Great start guys!!!

 

Liquid blue!!!!! Amazing picture Dan!

 

Great start kids, I am awarding my platinum stars to the pin stripe job on that awesome 40's tub. Just awesome lads. As always all entries are gold star winners and will be back for more art later in the day T.G.I.F. ~sololobo~

My son took this picture of my engine compartment I thought was artsy.

 

Sitting in the rain right now at the March Meet waiting for the storm to pass to bring out the art to sell this weekend. This 8x10 split window gasser was scratched and framed at the last minute and will make it into the show.

 

The art work is amazing.
Dan, that Kaiser reminds me of one we inherited on our farm from years ago. There was one there that was a Kaiser Travelor that the rear window folded up and the trunk folded down. The interior was leather and wood the best I remember. Those were fantastic cars, but back then you couldn't give them away. Someone stole that one.
Later,
Dick

 

Frankie, for a fellow HAMBER

 

It's been ages since I posted in the Art Show... Not hot rod art, but I'm sure that there are one or 2 fans of The Man In Black out there.

 

Man,nice stuff again this week; typikal... awesome work, kinda Sorchiky, which is not a bad thing...Bob, nice coupe,...Frogz,nice work on the panel,...lockwood,...nice lines there, everything else is cool too.

...I used to draw on white pine boards,most were done in black & white; did this old dirt track stock car plaq many years ago in color, this is two photos put together , hope it comes out ok.

...then I got a hairbrained idea to do some old trucks racing in the same fashion,...I called this one L.A. freeway 1955

and nother Model A,...

 

Lord knows I can't afford the original, but I'd seriously be all over a print of this one!
