I created a sketch per day for the annual Month of March's March-Sketch-A-Day celebration.  I finally scanned and uploaded them all here, for bewildering & controversial bliss!  The first three days were re-created on March 31, because the originals were a mess (as I was frantically stumbling into sketch-a-day pace).

Since current automobiles these days are so confounded ugly, I decided to go through all my auto-history books and make a wish list of the cars of years-past that I like and want re-manufactured.  I envision a day when the auto-manufacturers will make you whatever car you want (of their particular brand) :D  

FORDS: '40, '51, '55 Fairlane/Victoria.  '55-57 & '61-65 Tbird.  '64 & '66-67 Fairlane.  '64-65 Falcon.
One of my friends owned a '64 Fairlane and he dropped a 427 (from a '68 Torino I think) into it to make a pseudo Thunderbolt.  Man did that thing fly!!!  And it looked good too (the T-bolts were ugly).  Another friend owned a '64 Thunderbird and man I loved that thing (not as much as the Fairlane though).

BUICK: '59 Invicta.
I just about bought a broken down, rusted out one of these (sitting behind some guy's barn).  My dad stopped me (he didn't want it in his yard, not believing I was going to restore it).  But when I sat in it I felt awesome.  Everything inside of those cars is so cool looking.  

PONTIAC: '61-62 Catalina.
I really like the styling and build of these cars.  They also have neat interiors.

PLYMOUTH: '56 Fury, 66-68 Belvedere/Satellite series.   
One of my friends owned a '68 Roadrunner with a 426 Hemi.  It was a neat car and never stopped burning tires.  I never liked the "beep-beep" horn though.   I really like the GTX and Satellite models.  

DODGE: '66-68 Coronet series.  
One of my favorite cars is the Super Bee.  I remember the first time I saw one.  It was at a car-show and I was about 10 years old.  There was a yellow one and a green one.  I stared and stared and drooled.  

The only cars that I get excited about these days are small pocket-rocket "B" cars.  The USA doesn't have them.  Europe and Japan have lots of them.   HOWEVER (and this is why I got all excited and started looking through auto-history books), FIAT is planning on bringing over their 500 (and most likely the Abarth variants)!!!  SEE HERE: www.autoblog.com/2009/01/26/fi… And see the ABARTH variants HERE: www.fiat.co.uk/500abarth/ … very excited!

I always liked this string of lyrical nonsense.

Some info yo.  I rarely update my work because I work 80+ hours per week at my two jobs, and with every other free moment I freelance.  

I do a lot of sketching though... preliminary sketches at work and any other place I happen to be sitting long enough for me to dig up some paper and my drawing pencil.  I plan on digitizing all those sketches and putting them online one of these days.  

At the moment I'm getting my house winterized (and making sure my son knows how to do that too).  Have to change the oil in my cars and rotate the tires as well.
