New 5" x 10" Prints!

We now releasing some of our print images in a new 5" x 10" size. This new size is convenient where space is limited, or if you want to display several images together, like a group of your favorite Shelbys. All of these new 5"x10" prints are individually signed and numbered by designer/artist Jim Gerdom, and have hand-written titles. Each will be produced in a limited edition of 500 prints.

We are now accepting orders. All of the 5"x10" prints are expected in stock before the end of February. To see which images will be available in the 5"x10" size, look in the image windows on the ART page. A full list is on the second page of our printable Order Form, on the Order Info page.

These are "still on the drawing board" images of two of my most recent project car designs for clients.

The 66 Mustang is for a client who plans to rebuild the Mustang he's owned for many years, keeping the 200in. 6, with extensive modifications, for power. This inspired in the "6-theme" and asymmetric design.

The 32 Ford is a stock-bodied 2dr sedan with contemporary power and suspension. The plan is to find a previously built steel-bodied street rod and rework it. The "80" in the background commemorates the 80th anniversary of the 32 Ford. I will be producing limited edition prints from this artwork, details are on the ART page.

High-quality images and more information about both of these projects will be on this website soon.
