Vintage & Old Car Photos

1930s MG tourer MG 5560

Photos of old cars, vans, trucks and lorries

Oldclassiccar is packed with recent photographs featuring vintage and classic cars, whether preserved and on show at a classic event, or residing in a scrapyard somewhere hoping to be rescued. These modern photos from across the UK and overseas are featured in the Car Photos section, so worth a look if you're interested in modern photos of older cars.

Proper old photos!
This section however will contain a selection of interesting, original, photographs, often taken with fairly basic cameras such as the Kodak Box Brownie, featuring old cars when they were new, and not seen as historic vehicles. Rare wartime drawings also feature. As this section grows, hopefully it will complement other corners of oldclassiccar that contain scans of olde worlde postcards. Don't forget, there are lots more black & white pics of unidentified 'mystery cars' also on OCC.

If you have any period pictures like those featured here, I'd really like to hear from you! Someone who did, sent me photographs of old ice cream vans, and they are now on this page dedicated to these neat little commercials.

Photographs received so far!
