Hot Rod & Custom Car Photography – 1936 Ford Pickup
Download this hot rod pickup for your desktop. It’s a big file, so give it some time…
I get some cool shots sometimes too!
I just posted the combo of Coby and Tim Sutton’s beyond sick 1937 Lincoln Zephyr photo which is a shot, of a caliber (get it?) I aspire to create some day. Through some luck, good timing and maybe a developing eye for light, I got this shot of my friend Jim Ramirez’s hot rod pickup.
I knew this hot rod 1936 Ford pickup in suede blue paint with a really tough looking spade pinstriped on the door. That’s going back to 2008, the first year I covered the LA Roadster Show. His pickup has changed! Last year, Jim parked in the suede palace, but this year, he’s outside sip’n Tecate’s with his car club pals the Throttle Kings.
One thing you can count on with the Throttle Kings, their hot rods evolve… and they don’t have air ride! From back in 2008 at the LA Roadster Show:
Closer to present day… here’s some other shots of Jim’s truck.

The wallpaper of the truck looks like its right out of the 50s!
Wow, thanks for the compliment. Anyone else downloading the wallpaper, please say howdy.
Howdy then, I would just like to say that I have been into old style hot rods and customs ( spelled with a C, not a K ) since 1956. Back then we didn’t have the term street rods, or old school rods because we didn’t have people of such great numbers to try and make statements of where we stand when it comes to our car culture and where we fit in as individuals. We were just Hot Rods and speed demon’s. Period ! Thats all for now.
