While we've added it to the Photos Wanted! page, we wanted to put out a special request for anyone with photos of the 1946-1949 Armstrong Siddeley Typhoon, which we need for an upcoming article.

As far as we know, Armstrong Siddeley never really imported cars to the U.S. in any quantity, so the chances that we'll run into one locally (particularly in time for this article) are almost nonexistent. However, we are told that their survival rate in the UK is relatively good, so perhaps one of our British readers has spotted one.

If you have photos of this car that you'd be willing to let us use, please get in touch via the contact form (or via Facebook) as soon as possible. (As always, they need to be your own photos; we can't use images taken from the web or scanned from books or advertisements.)

As for why we need it, all will become clear soon..!

For the present, we've decided to completely eliminate the user registration function, including purging all existing registered user information. Please feel free to continue to use the site and make comments -- the site isn't going anywhere. Let us know if you have any questions.

Recently, we did an interview with Todd Ruel (formerly of Torq-O.com) for the inaugural podcast of his new website on orphan cars and orphan brands, Gone Autos. The podcast is now live -- you can check it out here.

As we've mentioned on many occasions, there's often a big disparity between the subjects we'd like to cover on Ate Up With Motor and the images available to us. While we've done some articles for which we had no photos in our own archives, it's substantially more difficult (and considerably more time-consuming), so what stories we do depends directly on the photos to which we have access.

This page will list cars for which we're actively looking for images. Read more...
