I have been photographing old cars since the late seventies. I have supplied photos to many old car publications. (Collectible Automobile, Automobile Quarterly, Car Collector, Cars&Parts, Old Autos Newspaper (Canadian), Fastback magazine (Canadian), Car Guide, Bison Books, Old Car Weekly Newspaper, and Publications International books. I have also been working in the film and TV production business in Toronto for 29 years. Mostly doing Picture Car Co-Ordinating. I am hoping to build this site up into a encyclopedia of old cars. It will take some time as I have a large photo file built up over the years. I will post as time and work allow. If there is something you would like to see ask, I will see if I have a shot of it. I hope this site will help to generate some photo sales. I am trying to make it as accurate as possible as far as name and years go. My Yahoo email is carphoto@yahoo.com.
Well here we are a bit over a year later and I have posted over 22,000 images. I have met lots of nice people on this site. I have looked at a lot of amazing photos. I have tried to make my site as accurate as possible. Editing is on going and always appreciate when somebody points out errors or shares information. Well it is two years now into the site and I have posted over 39,000 photos. I have had well over 1,200,000 views from around the world. I hope that I have opened a small window on to the old car hobby around here for some people. I also hope that it has been a source of information for some.
Well its the start of a new year. If you are interested in an off site use of my photographs contact me at carphoto@yahoo.com. Thanks Richard Spiegelman Remember if you don't see a car that you want to see..ask and I will check my slide file.
Update June 2012 well after three years I have 59,000 photos on the site and over 6.5 million views. Well my site as a photo encyclopedia is getting bigger and will continue to for a while. I hope you enjoy, learn and remember. Richard

He is a huge resource on Flicker.
He is one of the top contributors in the DeSoto Group.
Enjoy his images.
He has shown me some things that I had no idea existed.
