Those who know me, or of me, might recall that before I built and drove a couple modifieds, I had been creating drawings of the cars, mostly from Reading. After I quit racing (worst decision ever), I created more drawings and even drove up to the Syracuse mile to sell the drawings up there. So I have some of the NY drivers.
And...after all these years, I finally have uploaded the images to a site where they can be purchased, since they still seem to be very popular. I created these between 1968 and 1977. I still have almost all the originals and many copies of the original prints. I would create a B&W ink drawing, have lithographs made and then  I would hand color each one.
So what I have available now, to make it easy, are prints that I make myself of the digitised drawings. All have been updated (as I see fit). So they are better than before.

If interested, I'm pasting the link to my Etsy store below with Joe's blessing. It's part of my main Etsy store where I offer Photoshopped images. This link should take you to the the "racecar drawings" section.
I'm going to try and set up a discount just for 3wide members.

Very impressive!  Thanks for the discount offer. The cars are amazing, would love to see more of the wall art painted on buildings.  Thanks again Skip!

Thanks! Most of my mural work is documented on my FaceBook page called Emurals

But FB 'pages' are really messy (for me)...so...it's kinda a mess (like me;-))

Or my regular web site www.skipdyrda.com, which is partly broken (like me;-))

Painter Skip-  Love your artwork of my favorite era of hot rods.  I don't have any of your drawings but I do have shirts with Will Cagle's 24 sedan, the Paul Deasey 707 coupe, Budd Olsen's 92 sedan, and the Joe Bullock 76 Falcon.  They are gorgeous and they look like your art work!  Can't remember if I bought them on Etsy or CafePress.  Scott Ely

Yes, I have some on CafePress. I stopped uploading images there because they take 90%

Love the drawings Skip, and hopefully some of the guys will consider ordering soon as there are folks out there that would love to have your drawings, as a really unique, well thought of Christmas gift.

Also Skip, I'm not sure if I thanked you before, so I'd like to say thank you for your support in the past ( a few year's back...) where you donated a few amazing pieces that we were able to include in the fund raising for Friends of Mike races at New Egypt, along with some other events where a chinese auction was set up for a worthy cause.  Your artwork proved to be very popular with both "today's" and "yesterday's" fans.  Thank you for your support.
