Signed limited edition on acid free stock "The sights and sound of a Mecum Auction are so intoxicating that automotive artist David Snyder just had to get it down on canvas. The warm glow of the neon contrasts with the hot TV lights. He wanted to capture the excitement of the auction - the way the lights reflect on the cars and the buzz of anticipation throughout the auction grounds. From the banter of the auctioneer and the yells of the grinders - to the roar of the engines and the sparkle and shine of some of the best cars from around the country...this is what fills the days and nights of the fabulous Mecum Auction."

Signed limited edition on acid free stock "In 1966 a show car appeared at auto
shows introducing the intentions of AMC into the muscle car fray. It
was the AMX concept car followed shortly after by the AMX II in the
showroom. AMC offered the Marlin equipped with a 343 cu. in. 280 hp V8
tied to a four speed. As the saying goes, AMC was "off to the
races." Buy this one or any of

Signed limited edition on acid free stock If you raced a car at U.S.
30 Drag Strip or just raced stop light to stop light on Saturday night, you
knew about the Nickey Chevrolet Speed Shop in Chicago. Located in the
converted body shop at the back of the dealership, you could get whatever
you needed to win - not to mention the added bonus of S&H Green Stamps. Buy this one or any of

Designed and built to go Trans-Am racing, the Camaro Z-28 is my pick for the best all around muscle car. It all started with the high-winding 302 cu. in. engine producing an advertised 290 h.p.; add a beefed up F-41 suspension and disc brakes - suddenly you're Mark Donohue in a Penske prepared machine. In 1970 the legendary LT-1 350 cu. in. engine was the basis for the Z-28. The second generation Camaro is still one of the most eye pleasing designs out of GM studios. "Catching A Few Z's" pays homage to the great Z-28. Price: $175.00

Signed limited edition on acid free stock The 1969 Dodge Daytona and the 1970 Plymouth Superbird were designed to win Winston Cup Races. NASCAR rules dictated the cars had to go into production; 501 Dodge Daytonas and 1,935 Superbirds were built and available through dealerships. Horsepower could only accomplish so much on the track and designers started to take notice of aero-dynamics. Co-efficient of drag became the most important development. The lower the drag the faster the racecar. The Daytona and Superbird were both built with a pointed nose and slope back cutting through the air with a co-efficient of drag down to 0.28 to 0.29. In 1969 and 1970 the Dodge Daytona and Plymouth Superbird dominated NASCAR racing. This new painting "cd 0.29" celebrates an incredible period in Chrysler Corporation history. Buy this one or any of

Signed limited edition on acid free stock General Motors fielded a complete redesign of all brands in 1959. The emphasis was on more interior room and a lower, wider, more sculpted body, and of course, fins. It was the last full year Harley Earl presided as the head of the General Motors Art and Color Department. The Motorama style dedicated concept cars present at the show were a turbine powered Firebird III and the bubble top Cadillac Cyclone with dual radar pods in the front fenders. The most striking feature to artist Dave Snyder was the extraordinary color palette GM offered with the outrageous matching color interiors. Don't miss out! Buy any of

Size: 22" x 28"
Nineteen sixty nine
was a banner year for the Chrysler Corporation with 1,639,694 automobiles
sold. The Plymouth Road Runner alone accounted for 84,420 cars sold
and was named the Motor Trend Magazine "Car of the Year".
Traveling the auto show circuit in 1969 was the Plymouth Duster 1 concept
car. The topless Hemi powered car was based on the Road Runner
shortened to a 100 inch wheelbase. "Motion"
Size: 22" x 28"
Joel Rosen always had a reputation for
building cars that won on the quarter mile strips. The first was a
1958 Corvette he built in the service bay of his Sunoco station in Brooklyn. PR guru Martyn Schoor joined the fray and a "Dyno Proven Products" catalog was published. Now anyone could add the Motion magic to their own cars. Sadly, when the perfect storm of the insurance companies, OPEC and the EPA blew into town, Motion - just like many other super car dealerships became a sign of the times and an era of power and muscle came to an end.

Ohio. Knafel Pontiac showed its civic pride as a sponsor of local
baseball, softball and bowling teams. It was, however, his sponsorship
of drag racing that brought national acclaim. "Sweeeet"

Pecan candies from Stuckey's - a popular choice to satisfy any sweet tooth in 1972. A Dairy Queen creamy soft serve hot fudge sundae is the perfect sweet spot on a warm summer evening.

Size: 22" x 28"
Bob Tasca Sr. started racing in 1962 with a lightweight 390 Galaxie. Since then, this East Providence Rhode Island dealership has been a fixture on the quarter mile stage. Always the innovater and after blowing up a lot of 390 cubic inch engines, Tasca found a way to lead the Blue Oval to win races. He bolted on a pair of old style low riser, higher breather 427 headers to the high torque 428. Dearborn took notice and the Cobra Jet was born. In Tasca's 1971 A-1 Used Car lot are Cobra Jet powered Mustangs and Torinos, including a few CJ powered "King of the Road" Shelbys. Tasca's personal driver is a '69 Boss 429 that was reported to do runs in the 9 seconds. "575 West Pike"
Size: 22" x 28"
Little remains of Yenko Cheverolet except the "super cars" Don Yenko produced. Yenko's high performance cars are some of the most collected cars on the planet. The image everyone conjures up when they hear Yenko Chevrolet is the one photograph with Don Yenko standing in front of the dealership founded by his father. The muscle car action may have ceased, but the building still stands and the fervor for Yenko is as powerful as the cars he built. Artist Dave Snyder made another pilgrimage to Canonsburg to do urban archeology, sketching and studying the Yenko site. Today it is a mower/motorcycle shop, but enough remains for Snyder to envision what it must have looked like in its heyday. That visit, combined with Snyder's conversations and recollections with many former employees helped bring to life the new painting "575 West Pike" with historical accuracy. "Good Buy Oldsmobile"
Size: 22" x 28"
At 10:00 am EST April 27, 2004 we said goodbye to Oldsmobile. The last Olds rolled off the assembly line in Lansing, Michigan where the first car with the Oldsmobile name plate was built in 1897. Oldsmobile was a good buy for American drivers for 107 years. As a tribute to Oldsmobile, automotive artist Dave Snyder selected a few of his favorites - the Indianapolis 500 Official Pace Car from 1970, the Hurst Olds Pace Car from 1972 and the 1968 and 1969 Hurst Oldsmobiles as part of his new painting. "Mopar Strip"
Size: 22" x 36"
To celebrate the fifth anniversary of the "Mopars At The Strip" event, automotive artist Dave Snyder was commissioned for a new painting celebrating "The Wildest Mopar Party in the West". "Mopar Strip" takes us on a nostalgic trip among the glitz and glamour of the icons along Las Vegas Boulevard in 1972. Some of the best Mopar Muscle will cruise the strip this night. "Motorama 1954"
Size: 20" x 36"
The big news for the 1954 GM Motorama was the number of concept cars. Chevrolet caught everyone's attention with the Corvette based Nomad wagon and Corvair fastback displayed next to the production Corvette. Pontiac featured the Bonneville Special bubble top with gull wing windows. It was powered by the Pontiac straight eight with four two barrel carbs and an automatic transmission. The Oldsmobile dream car was the sporty F-88. The most radical design at the show being the Buick Wildcat II. The pontoon fenders and headlights mounted on the A post made a lasting impression. It was powered by a 220 h.p. V-8 on a 100 inch wheelbase. "Northside Chevrolet"
Size: 22" x 28"
Wouldn't you love to walk into this scene in 1972 and onto this OK USED CARS lot? You could pick up a gently used 1970 Z-28, 1969 Yenko Camaro, or a not so gently used '67 Big Block Corvette. Pick them up, store them for thirty five years, take them to Barrett Jackson...SOLD! Bingo, you beat the market big time. OK USED CARS was Chevrolet's mark of
quality since the mid 1930's.
