The Ranchero - aka - my 400th post!!!


I couldn't believe this was my 400th post! Wow. So cool!

   My grandfather gave me a 1973 Ford Rancher 500 for my 16th birthday. It wasn't really running at that time but I spent a summer working for my dad and with his help I was able to pay for the necessary repairs to provide needed.

I loved that car and was bummed to eventually have to sell it for something more economical, but in truth the romance of my first ride probably outweighs the truth that it had a exhaust leak we couldn't find, no working radio, and no AC. And it cost me a small fortune in gas money.

I did this piece for day 16 of the drawing challenge. I got a bit of freelance doing some Walking Dead card sketches and haven't had time to push any further on the 30 day drawing challenge at this time. I will get to share the sketch cards once the licenser gives the ok too! Very fun stuff.

Till next time.

Cheers
