  10. I found this drawing I did, probably around '83-'84 based on the other crap it was with, in a old box of stuff... that would mean I was in 10th grade...
    Probably a day dream doodle during an English class or something...
    Anyway, even though these have been done to death I can still see the details I was thinking about at the time. SBC or maybe a nailhead with Hilborn injection, bullet taillights, nurf bar bumper, wide tuck and roll, big-n-littles, whitetwalls and caps, trick exhaust with cutouts, z'd frame... Not sure if this falls in the "deserving" category, but I would still like to build it one day maybe...even if it is just to satisfy a childhood dream.

    a while back it might have been R&C that did some doodles of a late 60s ford truck cut down to t bucket proportions. I came pretty close to buying on to chop up for that purpose

    When I read this one, I IMMEDIATELY had a rendering pop into my head. I thought it was a Steve Stanford design, so I went spelunking through his fb page. I didn't find IT, but I found ALL THESE!! Get to metal-shaping, guys. blueford.jpg coolvettes.jpg copperford.jpg crown-merc.jpg daytonawagon.jpg emeraldcaddy.jpg

    I know there's more than ONE, but...

    I'm gonna dig through my archives when I get home and find that Ford...

    I've done a few in 1/25th scale. '40 Ford 3-window coupe. '49 Ford 400. '55 Chevy Nomad Woody. I think Steve Stanford drew them all.

  27. Jeez, if my '60s R&C collection wasn't buried so deep, there's tons of inspiration in their various 'Sketchpad' series from Tom Daniels and Don Emmons...
