Was probably in the early 80s. Evolution of a '32 Ford or something similar. Shows, and memory is foggy, the car in the forties, with the owner standing next to it maybe in military clothes, with a banger motor, then the fifties, clean cut owner and a flathead V8 traditional hot rod, sixties, long haired hippie owner, wild show rod, seventies, resto-rod, middle-aged owner, etc. Anyone remember this?
Hell I was there for part of it and I don't remember it. Maybe this will keep you out in plain site a little longer.
Yes... just not the specific month and year... MAN, I hate this awful "Sometimers" Disease. Although I do think it was one of the anniversary years- 82, 92, 02, or 07
I swear I've seen what you're talking about, but can't place it. Here's the one that reminds me of it a little, by Pete Millar...
Larry & Jim are correct. Have the page somewhere, where is the big Q. So no help there... . & I'm thinking it was the 50th anniversary of the Deuce. Also thinking it was a full page. & very well may have been in R.A.s' yearly, too. Marcus...
the illustrator I like the most was (is ? ) Don Jolley. where is he at? I think he was the only one that EVER had a drawing on the cover of Rod&Custom.. but I would be wrong. It was a 1929 Ford flatback Pickup, with a canopy on the back. black it was, Had more of his drawings inside,, nobody seems to know what happen to him..
Verde742, Rod & Custom has had several drawings on covers by various artists. Here are a few: Newton - August 1970, Steffenhagen (?) - May 1966, Tom Daniel - January AND Sept. 1965.
I remember something similar to that about that time period but it was a framed limited number print. I believe I saw it at a swap meet from a vendor selling different framed prints that do appear in some of the car magazines that you could order from on the back advertisement pages.
