I'm a 25 year old car nut living in Finland. My favourite hobby is collecting car magazines, catalogs and books. Right now I have over 1500 car magazines and about 30 books in my collection, oldest magazines are from 1913. I have always been interested about cars. When I was six years old I could identify almost every car on the road. I can now identify many European cars from the 1950's to this date but I also try to specialize in American cars. Recently I have been investigating Chinese cars. I collect everything car related; brochures, postcards, ads (oldest from 1900), pictures, car play cards, model cars, movies etc.

Here's my vintage car album:

1980 Dodge Aspen Six


1973 Lincoln Continental Mark IV 7,5

I also like watching old movies and TV-series and listening to 60's and 70's Pop and Soul music. My favourite bands are the Walker Brothers, the Delfonics, the Chi-Lites, the Four Tops and Moody Blues.

My other interests are abandoned cars, buildings, towns - well anything which is in a state of decay.
