Chances are if you’ve picked up a Mustang magazine or any magazine in this hobby in the last thirty-plus years you’ve seen the work of Jim Gerdom. Since the 1970’s this automotive designer has been cranking out impressive work for a variety of clients from magazines to manufacturers through his business Design Factory.
Gerdom has recently released two new pieces of artwork. The first is of the 2000 Cobra R. The legendary car that sat at the top of the Mustang heap for a number of years is now immortalized in collectible artwork.
The second new piece of artwork is a rendering for a Mustang project, a 69 “BOSS 427”. There are a lot of tweaks on this design. From the big, beautiful five-spoke wheels, concealing some massive brakes. The rear bumper has been tucked, and the front has obviously had some additional work done as well. The hood is also a different design from anything that came from the factory. We also noticed the gas filler has been moved to the passenger side B-pillar. No word yet on what’s under that bulging hood, but we’d be interested in watching this build go together.
Design Factory is also now offering two of their older pieces now in available in more popular sizes as well. First is the Titus number 17 ’67 Mustang racer in yellow and black. The other is the 1993 Cobra, the most powerful regular production Fox-body ever produced, and the car that made SVT a legendary name in the eyes of late model Mustang enthusiasts everywhere.
All of these prints are hand signed and numbered by Gerdom. The prints are sold in limited quantities, making this some cool, rare artwork that would look great in an office, man cave, or even a properly decorated garage. Most prints are available in 24×12, smaller sizes are also available for some prints as well. To order or check out these and other work by Jim Gerdom and Design Factory, check out the web site.
