Primered Dreams

One from the way back archives....

And there she sat, in all her baby blue glory, a 1935 Ford, awaiting the restorer's touch and the lead man's hammer. When I was looking it over, I felt like a 'lil kid looking and peeking in a Christmas holiday display window, all wide and starry eyed.....seeing the late nights spent among friends in summer, out in the garage with a 12 pack, listening to some old skool doowop, and wrenching, sanding, and torching away at her....like how an illustrator stares at a blank piece of paper, anticipating what will soon become of it. Yeah, boyhood dreams, soaked in motor oil, grease, loud exhaust, and the smell of primer......

Processed in LucisArts, please let me know what ya think!

Thanks everyone for your feedback & comments. It is impossible for me to say thank you to everyone who leaves comments, as it takes away from me seeing YOUR work, but if you do I will swing by your page and check your work out.
Thanks!

My fiance is a rat rod lover and his Dad was a drag race driver. He used to race Willy's Coupe. Check out his site if you want to see some bad ass cars, :iconStallionDesign: We want to get a rat rod going, we already have one of the last muscle cars, 73 El Camino.
