1952 Ford F-1

'52 Ford F-1

Newest rendering just finished up today! This is a very cool truck which is still in pieces somewhere in Utah right now.  It is a commemorative build for the owners' Father who passed away.  I was given a few details on what the truck should look like, and I took some liberties of my own on a few things as well.  If I could find one of these trucks, this is how I would build it.

Sam Ames Resume 2013

It never hurts to have a decent resume, I chose to go a more unconventional route with mine.  By unconventional, I mean AWESOME!

1977 Chevy Camaro RS LT

A few recent renderings. Who doesn't love this car, seriously? I did my research and matched all the rust and battle damage to the actual Hero Car.  The silver Camaro was a commission, he found me online and Sent me an email, and I send him this!

1956 Cadillac Sedan De Ville

'56 Caddy

I can't this of anything I don't like about this car.  This is a commission that was a bit intimidating, the car is so beautiful and detailed, I had to do it justice and nail everything.  As part of the deal the owner and I made, I will get my own bullet nose bumper!

1965 Impala Hardtop

1965 Chevrolet Impala Hardtop

Had some fun with textures on this piece.  I made some rusty paint brushes to add the patina on the edges.  Very nice car, and it's a driver!

Another returning client piece, I did a 1965 Shelby Cobra earlier in 2012 for this car-guy.  This was a rush order for Christmas, it turned out pretty nice I think.  Who wouldn't want this car?!

Hansen Truck Stop

Hansen Truck Stop 20" x 45" - Pingree Idaho

This was a colossal, epic, staggering piece to complete.  This was done for a returning client's father as a Christmas gift.  I'd have to say, it was a beast. Great client though, the Hansen Trucking Company takes pride in their rigs, so I was sure to put each detail into each custom Semi truck. Printed out this was also the largest piece I've done.

Factory 5 '33 Coupe

Factory Five 1933 Ford Coupe

Working on some new stuff finally! We welcomed the newest member of the Ames Flames and Customs family into the world on Christmas day 2012, and it's been difficult to get anything accomplished since! Here's something I've been working on for a returning client - Factory 5 '33 Ford on Foose Nitrous Wheels, Pearl Paint.
