I'm really liking the direction of my Adobe Illustrator illustration of Fred Lorenzen's 1966 Ford Fairlane race car. The updated background colors are much better and the chrome has been completed. On to finishing the interior!

I completed the body, added the chrome. and began to work on some details on Fred Lorenzen's 1966 Ford Fairlane race car. I changed the background color, but I'm leaning towards a different color scheme for the background. I'm liking how this is turning out!

I'm coming back to this illustration of NASCAR Hall of Famer's Fred Lorenzen's 1966 Ford Fairlane race car. I had started this awhile ago, but wasn't happy with the direction of it. But I've decided to revisit it and complete it. I will complete Dan Gurney's 1967 Eagle Mk 1 Formula 1 race car soon too!
