Why do I have the feeling there will soon be some new posts in doctoroldsmobile'sgarage? :confused: Apparently Ken's car is their first car and they still own all the cars too. Ken better go check your garage.:D I'd say this sure illustrates the draw backs to posting your car's pics online. Dirty thieves.:mad: I would bet my life savings the picture the "girl" has posted of herself is stolen too. Too funny.

Who ever they belong to--those are fine looking Oldsmobiles. The real oweners can be proud that lots of folks are enjoying them--Andy

Sure they're nice and I'm sure the real owners are proud of them but stealing pics and claiming ownership is despicable behavior that shows the true nature of DoctorOldsmobile.:mad:

I saw that. I asked her if she was using the picture of my car to describe one she owned or if she was claiming my car as her's. She never responded. Don't be surprised if some of you guys find you cars being claimed as her cars. :rolleyes:

"Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery"

BUT.. Claiming other's cars as your own..would warrant a call/email to motortopia staff.
Assholes that Visually Plagiarize need to be booted off those sites.
Nice find Joe.

I emailed her(?) and also Motorpedia and asked what the deal was. I'll report back if I hear anything.

A lot of you already know I am doing a frame off restoration on my dad's original '73 S, and for this reason I don't post anything.
I personally prefer to keep personal pictures private.
There are alot of low life scum buckets out there, it's unfortunate but true.

Hi guys, Looks like this isn't the only site robbing pics .Here's one with pictures from my garage and others I emailed. Either they pirated an email I sent or one of the few people I sent them to is sharing or posting ! There are even two pics of Bob Schiely's car I have never seen !

progress has been limited to collecting parts and information so far.'bout done with that. I have been working to get my street rod body back on the frame so I have some room to work at the proto. should happen in the next week. I will try to get my act together so I can post pics of the process when it starts.

If anyone wants there pics removed from my Oldsmobile photo page, just let me know.

I have made sure that they are all protected and cannot be 'right click and saved'

I collected them for myself, not to do anything else with. I don't and never have claimed them as my own, just wanted a place to save them as I get older and the cars, unfortunately, become fewer and fewer. Also, so I can show my boy when he grows up.

Scott, as far as I'm concerned you're one of us. I don't mind that you have pictures of my car. In fact you asked andd I gave you permission to use the pix. BTW, you can download any pictures of my car that you like for your site, which is excellent BTW.

Really, I don't care that Doctor Oldsmobile has them either. What can happen? The car is in my garage. I found my car on Flickr by someone who saw it at a show, and liked it enough to post. They never claimed it was theirs. Besides, how can you stop that.

It's the principle of the thing. If Motorpedia tells them to remove it fine, if not fine. I'll just post that she? is a fraud and that the car is mine.
