The Cars Band Gallery - Thumbnail Index

NOTE: Copyright of these images remains with their subject and original photographer; my tag on a scan is merely to denote that I was the one who went to the time and trouble to convert a particular photo from hardcopy to digital and upload it to the web for other fans to enjoy. HOWEVER, while I don't "own" these pics in any kind of legal sense, I would still appreciate being asked or at the very least informed if you wish to reproduce them on another website (I can be contacted by email here) and a link back to C&S (see this page for code and banners) or some other form of acknowledgement would be lovely, as well. Thank you!

96 K A goofy moment immortalized on the cover of Rolling Stone	40 K Cute; the rest of the band seems to be clowning around a bit, but Ben's just standing there like, "Come on, guys, we're supposed to be posing."	87 K Okay, I could have done without the pic of Angus Young (not an AC/DC fan...) but it's a good shot of the guys.
100 K The Cars on the cover of Hit Parader	39 K A quizzical moment between Ben and David Robinson	32 K Hmm... I wonder if the fact that Ben is the only one who's properly lit in this pic means the photographer was female?
121 K Another "goofy Cars" pic... Ben looks like he's asking the photographer, "You want me to do WHAT?"	70 K A Door To Door-era pic, from the cover of BAM magazine	59 K A great Heartbeat City-era pic of everybody
53 K The Cars in flight... poor Greg Hawkes looks like he's got rigor mortis...	80 K Ben's expression here cracks me up... he looks like he's thinking something like, "Now what is THAT doing all the way up THERE?"	45 K The Cars, from the cover of Trouser Press
49 K What a great pic of Ben... well, and everybody else, too...	100 K The Cars on the cover of Musician magazine	50 K Another Heartbeat City-era promo pic
75 K The Cars on the cover of Record magazine	47 K A pic from the Record article... Ben's looking quite hunky...	63 K An early promo shot. I'm guessing this is debut album era, 1978 or thereabouts...
77 K A promo pic from the Panorama era (1980)	48 K And one more promo shot, from the Shake It Up era (1982)	53 K Another Shake It Up-era pic, this one from a magazine pinup
69 K Damn... the layout artists at Music Life put that inset of David Robinson in exactly the WRONG place...	59 K Yet another early 80's promo shot	71 K From a Creem magazine pinup, circa 1984...
43 K This is a good pic of everyone, but Ben looks kinda tired to me...	76 K The Cars with... well, a car.	43 K Another Heartbeat City-era pic... Ben looks hot, as usual...
91 K The Cars outdoors	74 K I believe the stage setup here was from the Panorama tour...	43 K Early Cars...
