Well, a quick add of a couple of photos from my camera of the inside
of my minivan turned into a big 26-photo update of the Chevrolet
Venture page.

Which makes this a good a time as any to remind folks of the mission
of The Crittenden Automotive Library: preserving automotive history.
Really, photos and (the real thing) of Chevrolet Corvettes can be
found anywhere, anytime.  They'll be around for a long, long time.
But how many of us really drive around in Corvettes?  You're more
likely to see minivans on the roads, minivans like the Chevrolet
Venture.  Which is why it's worth preserving here, because even though
it's not cool at all, it's historically important and hardly anyone
else is doing it.  So that's why it was "Chevy Minivan Day" here at
the Library.

By the way, I actually own a Chevrolet Venture myself.  The dark blue
one with the license plate WALZAK4 in the pictures.

Okay, I know not a whole heck of a lot of people really care about
minivans.  So there's 19 photos of a very unique Plymouth GTX that I
took Sunday.  As well as 10 photos of the 1970 Chi-Town Hustler drag
car.  I don't have a whole lot of drag racing on the site, so I went a
little nuts this weekend in a garage full of drag racing cars.  More
of those photos to come later this week.

Books are the heart and soul of any library, and I've been busy adding
them to the site this weekend.  Check out the new and previously
available books at http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/books01.php

There are also a TON of new avatars to pick from in the Forum,
including just about every flag flown in the world today, a bunch of
Subaru Imprezas and characters from RPM Tuning as well as non-car
related avatars...check them out by signing up at
http://carsandracingstuff.com/forum/

I'll be making some CarsAndRacingStuff.com avatars soon, and I'll make
them available to anyone with a Forum who wants to use them.

Also, results from the 1955 Formula 1 season are now online.  At this
rate, I'll be up to the 2008 season in 2035.  Of course, if any F1
fans want to help sponsor the site, I can use the money to take some
time off from the day job and dedicate the hours to getting caught up.

A bunch more photos from Cepolina have been added to the Corvette and
Hot Rod Photos pages.  And a photo set from Flickr including some
interesting classic sports cars.

This is a big update of photos from 2002, including the Tropicana 400
NASCAR event and the Chicago Auto Show.  Heidi, my wife, took the
pictures on her old film camera, and I've scanned them in for the
site.  There's more all over the site, but I've highlighted the
important ones here.

Up next is statistics and results from the 1955 Formula 1 season, and
some old books from 1900-1920.

Tropicana 400 (40 photos)
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/t/tropicana400.php

Well, there are two major components to the Update today:

First off, there are 18 more photos for the 2001 Tropicana 400, taken
by my wife Heidi at
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/t/tropicana400.php  Coming
soon are over 70 more photos from the 2002 edition of the race.

Second, and most interesting (I think) is more material from the very
beginning of automotive history.  Check out the 1899-2005 page of the
Articles Index at
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/articles/articles02.php and
you'll see that all types of articles on all sorts of topics of
interest from the early days of motoring.  New today are articles on
Eddie Rickenbacker's racing career before he became a war hero, an
article informing motorists of the first ever deductible-policy
insurance plans,  and an electric car company started in 1899.  For
the folks local to northern Illinois, two of the articles are about
road racing in Elgin.

As always, feel free to comment on these photos, articles, or any
other Library material in our newly remodeled Forum at
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/forum/index.php

It's not exactly part of the Library, but it's part of the overall
website of CarsAndRacingStuff.com.  The Forum wasn't working very well,
so I updated the software, and in the process was unable to recover the
old material.  But the new software is too good to pass up, so
basically the Forum has been relaunched from scratch.

It's at http://carsandracingstuff.com/forum/ , and when you register
I'll have to approve your membership before you post, so as to help
keep the spambots off the boards.

I've spent quite a bit of this weekend working on this, so there's no
likely no new material going online this weekend.  But I did scan some
things while the Forum software was updating, so some sort of progress
was made on getting new material online.

Well, now I can see why the Berne Amendment is so important to the
concept of copyright these days.  Basically, from 1989 on you didn't
have to put a copyright notice on anything, protection was automatic.
  Before 1977, though, forget that little c in a circle and it meant
public domain for your creation.

There's another little catch, I found out.  Copyright notices for
"collective works" (magazines, newspapers) don't cover the
advertisements (http://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ03.html).  So I
pulled out an old National Geographic and scanned in a few of the ads
that didn't carry notice.  Nice stuff, from 1959.  I'm going to have a
bit of fun with this in the next few months, in combination with other
unprotected works of the era between 1922 (when everything's in public
domain) and 1977, when the rules for notice changed.

Again, not the biggest update I've ever put out, but then I think it's
one of the most interesting.

Actually, this update's material went online Saturday and yesterday,
but I'm typing this out at 12:32 AM U.S. Central time so it's the
January 7 update.

This update is pretty thin on quantity, but the quality of what's
online and the potential for the future here makes it worthy of
sending this out.

First of all, the second Special Collection page is online.  I had
that Hurricane Katrina page just sitting out there unclassified until
I figured out how to handle certain topics I wanted to do that
weren't automotive topics.  Now, groupings of photographs and
material centered around a non-automotive theme defines a Special
Collection.  The second Collection on the site is DHL, and it's
dedicated to Chuck Stephens, who before becoming my manager at my day
job was a longtime manager for the company.  I'm learning a lot about
the delivery business in the little downtime we have at work.  Just
another aspect to my never-ending automotive education.
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/special/dhl.php

The second is a car brochure.  It's actually the second car brochure
on the site, the first one dating back to the pre-1920's era, when
just about everything is in public domain.  What makes this piece
interesting is the year - 1973 - long after the traditional 1923
public domain cutoff.  Thanks to John Walczak I've finally figured
out the vagaries of copyright notices, and thanks to Ford for not
bothering with trivial things like copyright notices on marketing
materials, I've got my 1973 Pinto brochure on the site.  It's bigger
than a regular scanner, but it's all stitched together and
everything, so it took a long time to get it ready to upload.  Why
the Pinto?  Because it's the only thing in my collection that
qualifies, and it's in my collection because I have a soft spot for
what a lot of people consider to be substandard cars.  More to come
soon!  http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/p/pinto.php

Well, this update is just a great big end-of-the-year (really, it's
9:45 PM here) cleaning out of a bunch of little things I've had going
lately throughout the course of December.

The first new part, and the one I'm most proud of, is that we have a
new photographer - Heidi Walczak.  Okay, she's my wife, but she took
the pictures when we went to the Cup races in Joliet in 2001 and 2002,
so she's the new source, as I've scanned the photos from the Inaugural
Tropicana 400 and put them on the site.  2002 is coming soon!

Early in December I announced that there were more than 1,500 articles
on the site.  There are now more than 1,830 articles on the site.

There's also some material from Cepolina back on the site.  Cepolina
was actually the very first source of photos (not counting myself) for
CarsAndRacingStuff.com, and most of those got lost in the shuffle when
the old Photos section was folded into the new (at the time)
Encyclopedia, which eventually became the library.  So there's new
stuff from an old source.

Also, the 2007 NASCAR season (Cup, Busch, Trucks) wins have been added
to the Calendar and drivers' pages' Win Lists.

Two more newsletters from GTR, a model car club in northern Illinois,
have been added.

There's another new section to the Library - a guide of automotive
acronyms. You can find it at
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/acronyms.php  Feel free to
e-mail me and suggest any additions to the list.

The best part, however, is an August 1903 report from the New York
Times detailing the first ever automobile trip above the Arctic
Circle, in the article Automobile Topics of Interest. It's interesting
to think that 104 years ago a trip to a town in the north of Sweden
would be so newsworthy, and so difficult.  Real historic stuff, and
part of the reason this Library exists, to preserve that information
and present it to as many people as are interested in seeing it.

Thanks to public domain, I am able to.  So please remember how useful
this simple and often overlooked principle is when it comes to those
interested in history.

This update includes a photo set from a group of races in San Jose
this year.  It's a good variety, including drifting, open wheel, and
vintage NASCAR.  And yes, that is "the" Frankie Muniz, former star of
Malcolm in the Middle.  Note that the vintage NASCAR car photos are placed with
the original NASCAR driver, for those of you who might have noticed a 2007 race
date along with names like Bobby Hamilton and Davey Allison, and as soon as I
can get some information I'll put the names of who was actually driving them
along with the photos.

I've also gone back to the ol' Voice of America collection.  "Help
for Gephyrophobes" is a fascinating look at something most of us
probably don't even realize happens to some people.

Thanks for this weekend's updates goes in part to Jeff Gordon 24
Energy drink.  Heidi (my wife, for those new to the updates) found
some on sale before she left for her weekend away, and it's kept me
awake and moving most of this weekend.

through our Stock Car Racing category on these updates, he comes up
with most of the ARCA material that is on the site.

This update is the first of my big scrapbooking retreat weekend.  OK,
so what does scrapbooking have to do with it?  My wife, Heidi, is out

This is the second half of the Lensing Show photos.  This batch is
much more diverse than the last, even though there's even more Mopar
muscle in it.  There's the site's first Nash and Kaiser photos, as
well as another AMC and a Winfield midget.

Also included is some new Cadillac information, and when added to the
Nash and Kaiser photos, helps bring some balance to the site.

This big batch o' stuff is mostly the first half of the photos (50 of
them!) from the Lensing Autumn Classic Car Show from a couple weeks
ago.  A lot of photos from John Walczak, and a bunch taken by me on
my 4MP camera and then his 6MP when battery drain reduced us to one
camera.

This is (including the forthcoming second half of the show) probably
the last batch that will include 4MP and 6MP shots, as the 4MP camera
was mortally wounded by my son last week.  The camera still works,
but the lens will no longer focus.  I had to replace it, and
purchased an 8MP camera with 10x zoom, so from now on most of the
pictures I take will be on that camera.  Hopefully the vastly
superior zoom and increased shutter speed will help my racing
photography.

However, I'm quickly running out of file storage space on my server,
and a new higher resolution camera will not help.  I should have
until February to remedy the situation, as the season is over for me,
both in terms of car shows and racing.  In February is the Chicago
Auto Show, and I hope to have enough time at the show to take a ton
of pictures and video.

Anyway, LOTS of stuff for the Mopar fans in this update, 39 Chrysler
to 11 non-Chrysler, and that ratio jumps to 40-10 if you include AMC!

Most of this update is photos and video from Rockford Speedway's 42nd
annual
National Short Track Championships on September 30.  It's my first
time taking pictures of cars that are actually moving, so while the
results aren't spectacular, the lessons learned were well worth it.

Today's update also includes articles from the beginnings of
automotive time.  One chronicles the very origins of General Motors
itself, others are collections of short notes that include the
beginnings of ouis Chevrolet's association with General Motors and
the 1910 design of a new racing car by Marmon, which I presume to be
or be the predecessor to the famed Marmon Wasp that Ray Harroun drove
to victory in the very first Indianapolis 500 the next year.

Toying with Disaster, NASCAR's Unhinging (2007 commentary)
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/articles/1155.php

This update is kind of a clean-up of several sources and some odd
photos of my own.  Like the organization going on in the rest of my
life, I'm also tying up loose ends on the website.

One of the sources is a handful of Chevy photos from the "forgotten
show."  6 pictures from a car show I arrived at just as everyone was
leaving, taken from before the Library was called the Library.  I
found these organizing the family photos.

Another handful of files is of Rich Daswick's Chevrolet Malibu Maxx.
I took the photos just as he was leaving on a road trip back home
from Illinois to Delaware.  The car only made it to Pennsylvania
before getting its front end smashed up pretty badly.  The car was
repaired, though, but the fate of the Delaware license plate may not
have such a happy ending.  I'll have to ask Rich some day.

There's also another bunch of photos of the Navy NASCAR racer from
back when Casey Atwood drove it.  I've still got about a hundred more
files from the Navy, not counting anything they may have posted from
this year.

The real gem of this update is a bunch of files of NASCAR race cars
from Michigan in 1994, and Richard Petty's 1992 car.

I'm almost done with organizing around the house, almost back from my

Wow, it's been a while, huh?

I took some time off to organize things offline.  I'm still "on
vacation," but I was able to find some free time in front of a
computer to put together this bundle of articles.

This is more from the VOA, finishing the F's, which means a lot of
Ford and Formula 1 information. The G's that followed means a lot
from General Motors and Germans.

There's also a few from Amazines, bringing the total number of
articles to 1100, a 10% jump from just a couple months before!

With the simple title, "Loeb Wins Rally of Italy," a milestone has
been reached at the Library.  1,000 articles are now online for your
browsing.  I'd just like to take a moment and thank our contributors,
who are too many to mention all of, however I can't let this moment
pass without thanking Chris Knight, Jeremy Sellers, the Voice of
America, Wikinews, the U.S. military (especially the Navy and Army),
Accelerating Developments International, Becky Davidson, Tom Geiger,
and Amazines.com.  Thank you.

Of course, the material in the "Individual News Articles, Press
Releases and Commentaries" section aren't the only articles on the
site to read.  Thanks to Sandra Vorse, GTR, Chicagoland Fans4Racing
and Google Books, we have a wide selection of newsletters and
magazines in our Periodicals section at
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/periodicals01.php with even
more articles.  So likely the "real" 1,000th article has been on the
site for quite some time, but I finally reached article file 1000.php
in the Articles section tonight.

My favorite piece from this Update, though, is another book, this one
about those great little shortcuts that every mechanic takes in their
work to get ahead of book time or just to get a job done quickly.
Except this is a compilation of tricks of the trade circa 1918.

http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/articles/0942.php

This update is a little bit of everything.  Among the new content is
yet another new source.  As always, U.S. government taketh (in the
form of taxes), but sometimes they giveth away (in that all federal
government work is uncopyrightable).  I've added a few court
decisions regarding auto dealerships and manufacturers, just another
new facet of the site and adding more variety to the already wide-
ranging gathering of materials I have here.

Among the new material, though, is another gem of a book, this one a
Ford Model T repair manual, published in 1918.  There is also an
article about the Pope's old Volkswagen Golf (from back when he was
Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger) selling for nearly a quarter million
dollars.  Plus the brochure for the 1908 Packard Thirty and an
article with a really good photo of Bill Lester.

Also, for those of you that live near me in northern Illinois or
southern Wisconsin, check out the Superbirds reunion, which also
includes Ramo Stott and a USAC stock car reunion.

Thanks to a new source, the site now truly is a library.  After all,
what is a library without books?  There are now 3 books online, as
well as 7 book compilations of what looks to be the very first
automotive magazine in the United States, The Horseless Age.  I filed
those under Periodicals, though, which is the new name for the former
Newsletters index.

Actually, since the last update I went to 2 cruise nights.  The
Thursday night in Barrington was a bit unplanned, but I went anyway.
I was planning on spending Friday evening in Rolling Meadows, but
since I drove to Barrington just the night before I instead went to
the local cruise in Richmond again.  Different month, different cars,
so there was still plenty to take photos of.

Also on this update are some photos of autograph sessions and show
cars from John Walczak, who went to a handful of events as the NASCAR
Busch and Nextel Cup series passed through town last week.  Plus
there's a handful of articles, and the ARCA Racing News Feed has
expanded to include all types of stock car racing.

The major part of this update is another photo set from the vintage
races in Watkins Glen from Nate Bittinger.  The two groups
represented today include British mini cars (such as Mini Coopers and
MGs) and American pony cars (such as Mustangs and GT350s) and
Corvettes.

I've also included material from a new source, I'd like to thank
Sandra Vorse for adding some material to the Library.  She's the PR
representative for Justin Allgaier Motorsports and Billy Ballew
Motorsports, which is the team Bill Lester is driving for now.

I started to add some more Voice of America articles, starting the
D's finally, when I got an e-mail about a good cruise night in
Barrington.  So instead of more articles, I'm getting ready to go
take some photos of classic cars in the old parts of Barrington,
Illinois tonight.

for price information (serious buyers only, please, and rememeber
that the car is in northern Illinois).

Thanks to the new unclassified photo pages, I was finally able to
finish putting Gary Tierney's photos online.  There were four that I
could not properly identify well enough to put on a Topic page.

I also found and posted the last of the photos from last year's
Morris Classic Car Show.

The major new content, however, is 97 pictures from an SVRA vintage
racing event in Watkins Glen, New York.  Almost all open-wheel from
the 60's and 70's, including some interesting Bobby Rahal cars that
were there for show.

Of course, what would an update be without several articles from
Chris Knight, the VOA and Amazines?  But the reason for this update
is a little trip I took to a cruise night in Richmond, Illinois.

A new section is now also online, to accomodate a group of
photographs of difficult or impossible to classify photographs.
Until now, material that I couldn't figure out what page it belonged
on just rested on my hard drive.  Now there are new sections for it.

Also, I know I missed the June monthly update, and this is a little
thin on new stuff for as long as it's been since the last update, but
I started a new job recently, and the adjustment to the new schedule
both at work and at home has been difficult, to put it mildly.

Chrome plating fiberglass bumpers (2006 article)
http://www.carsandracingstuff.com/library/articles/0871.php

This update has a big batch o' stuff from the Voice of America,
including seven video articles.  I finished with articles that start
with As and Bs, so there's a bunch that start with Asia and "auto
industry," and articles about biofuels. &nbspThere's also a bunch of
articles about U.S. government actions, because a lot of those
articles start with "Bush."  Not on purpose, but as a function of
what letters start what articles and the fact that the material came
from the VOA, a lot of the material is about the envorionmental
aspects of cars, particularly alternative fuels.  China also is a big
topic in this update, as I got started with the Cs towards the end.

Also, I have redone the site's membership in several Topsites and
joined new ones.  The links appear near the bottom of the left-side
column on the site.

Pocono 200.  Mostly Chris Knight's articles, but one of my own, and a
couple of Chris' photographs.  Just a quick little update because I

This update finally has the rest of those little March 1, 2006
snippet articles.  Now I'll have a bit more time for other stuff
since that's done.

There's another big bunch of Chris Knight's ARCA articles, which
probably will accompany these updates from now until the end of the
season...and pick up again in February.

However, that's not all, spec sheets on 5 vehicles were also added to
the site, everything from a pickup truck to an SUV to an exotic
sports car to a family sedan and an econobox.  One of everything
except a minivan, I think.

The real gem of this update, however, is a 1906 article about taking
a ride with Barney Oldfield.
