Update 1B: Direction of Project / Project Rendering

By Frank Colgoni
Taken From The About Us Page:
Automobile enthusiasts have a very diverse, somewhat inexplicable, cross section of their “likes”. That’s what makes the hobby interesting. Personally, I happen to like 1932 Fords and have since before I had a driver’s license – more or less a lifelong passion.

So, it's a pleasure to document this project. I have also had an opportunity to express that passion through a number of scratch-built 32’s that finished up with quite different characters in terms of their function and theme: one a clean, high tech 'glass 3-window coupe with all the bells and whistles, the other a very low tech 'glass roadster with some contemporary design elements but with basically a key and a headlight switch.

This car will be a straight-ahead interpretation - in a more traditional style (of which there are many I should add in case this doesn'r match your idea of "traditional").

Design Partner
Also as mentioned on the About Us page, I'd like to acknowledge design partner Brightwork Auto Art (Matthew Labutte). Matthew is responsible for the Ride in Steel logo and is partnering in the design of this car.

Project Renderings
Prior to starting the last project (a '32 Roadster built for the 75th. Anniversary of the Deuce), I explained, in detail, how the car would appear finished. He rendered the car and the build began. I would say that the finished car pretty much finished spot on.

This brings us to this current project where, once again, I described what I was envisioning and Matthew rendered it spot on. Two versions of the rendering are presented below: a standalone and an "in context" version entiltled "REDUX".
