So, I looked and the dude is in Taiwan.... I thought about reporting it, but they probably just jacked the photo off of PHR's website. And.... I believe once something is on the internet, it's fair game. Could be wrong, but who knows. Not to mention, I'm not sure this is some multi-million dollar scheme. I mean, I LOVE my car, but I'm not betting the farm he's going to sell a ton of these. Smile It's no Pet Rock.....

I think I'll just take it as a compliment. Beer

that is why you need a watermark type thing to copyright the picture for without it it is fair game

I agree, but I didn't post it. PHR should have a watermark on their photos.

yes they should, and even though it is a compliment they are using YOUR car to make a profit and you are seeing nothing from it, if it was mine I would be pissed off if I didn't see one penny from it.

would be like me taking your car to win a contest and not sharing any of the money with you for letting me use our car to win.

Didn't Chris have the same problem & ended up getting a free T-shirt or something from the guy in trade? I can't remember the specifics, but surely SOMEONE remembers this.

Probably not worth the trubba. Ya can't go chasing down every pic stealin' putz out there.

Sucks, but that pic has reached the masses and probably falls under some sort of "public icon" status.

I'm jealous that nobody steals my pics. Sad

Alright... contacted the seller:

Me - Where did you get this photo?

Seller - from CD bought from ebay long time ago,

Me - That's funny, because that is my car you have a photo of, and a recent photo at that.... I did not authorize you to use this photo. What would you like to do.

Seller - I removed it from listing, sorry and really sorry

I just wish it was making me money instead of taking it. GoFast

Oh, and I'd like to say thanks to everyone (mostly 1973montec in this case) that finds and forwards this kind of stuff. It's greatly appreciated.
