About ten years ago a friend of mine visited Richard Carpenter's Yesterday Once More car museum in San Fe Springs, California. He said he took pictures and is currently looking through his 1000's of packs to find them.
Does anyone know if the car museaum is still there? Has anyone else went to visit? Any other info?

No, but I would love to hear more. I know that in the past the newsletters spoke of more than one warehouse so it would be interesting to learn more about this one and if it is the only one left.

Hi Guys,
I know that on the Japanese special, SAYONARA Carpenters(sorry if's wrong spelling), they showed the famous YESTERDAY ONCE MORE warehouse. As Richard was driving to it, but then got called to A&M Records for a surprise.
My thoughts,
Cameron

This was a long time ago but on
cabels Speed Channel, Richard was
featured giving a tour of his
collection. It took me by surprise
so I did not get on tape. Maybe
Speed has this program for sale?
I am going to try and contact them
and see whats up!

Yes, please let us know if there is a video or DVD available of that program. I would certainly like to know more about this.

Hi all!
I believe that the inside of the car museum is showed in the "I won`t last a day.." video on the Video Biography(karaoke dvd) It is in black/white and shows Rich walking around the cars and showing them to the camera.
It also has the huge wall poster of Singles 69-73 on one of the walls. I believe it is the same warehouse that K&R and the tourgroup were photographed in, at least they posed in front of that huge wall poster on a photo from the 70`s.

Yes, I think that is the Yesterday Once More car museum in the Video Biography. Soon I should have some pictures of Richard with his cars taken by my friend R. Yale.
R. Yale is an interesting character. He's a direct descendant to Elihu Yale who is an original contributor to Yale University which was named after him. Also in the same Yale lineage is Linus Yale Jr., inventor of a popular and effective lock that uses a pin-tumbler cylinder design.

Just to give you an update on my
search for the interview of RC
and his car collection.
It seems that has been traded by
cable systems a few times thru the
years SPEED VISION SPEED TV and
now it is called SPEED CHANNEL.
It seems like there web site would
have an archive but I can't find
it. I also Emailed a request for
info with no response. It has to
be out there somwhere.
In the video Carpenters 2000 it
opens with RC driving thru LA and
south into Downey in the red Jaguar
from Now and Then
