The Fiat Spider – 1975 Or So

Click on pictures to Z O O M in.

Fiat introduced the 124 product line in 1966. This line included the coupe and the convertible (Spider) and was produced until 1982. I’m not sure when but around 1979, Fiat no longer imported cars into the U.S. Now, interestingly enough, Fiat has purchased Chrysler Motors and will again be selling cars in the United States. I shot this picture of this 1975 model in December of 2001.

The MGB-GT

Click on pictures to Z O O M in.

This is one of my favorite cars. It was made from 1966 through 1978. It was the follow on to the MG-TC, MG-TD, and the MG-A. I think the MG-TC was first imported into the United States 19 1950 or so. I think this car is an earlier model. Probably a 1967 or 1968. I shot this picture in October of 2002.

I’ve Never Seen One Like This Before

I don’t think this was a custom car but I have never seen one of these before. I took this picture in the town of Nappa California one July afternoon. The Volvo is a classic PV444/544 that was manufactured from 1947 until the mid 1960s.
I would appreciate any information you can supply about this truck; What model, what year etc?

It All Started One Day In 2001


I started taking pictures in 2001 with my newly purchased Canon G1 camera.  I was working in the city (San Franciso) and walking to work every day.  This gave me about 1.5 hours/day to take some pictures as I walked.  This “Bug Eyed” Sprite was one of the first of the series, now known as “Cars You Don’t See Every Day”.
