Brenda Priddy Ebay Fundraiser To Benefit Wounded Auto Writer
Spy photog and all-around auto industry superstar Brenda Priddy is once again in the middle of giving something back to the community, this time raising money to help out auto writer Frank Washington following a brutal assault last month. Washington was left unable to work after he was mugged and stabbed, so Brenda is setting up a series of eBay auctions to raise money to help him out. Using her industry sources, she's pulled together quite a list of auto-centric swag. More » -

Brenda Priddy Auctions Off Rare Badge For Charity
Everyone's favorite spy photographer, Brenda Priddy (just kidding Hans, we love ya, too) is doing a bit of charity work, perhaps as punishment for bringing us the Hunks of SEMA gallery. All you have to do to help charity is bid on this extremely rare badge from the Dodge Journey, which was originally named the Dodge CREW. It's a badge from a car that never existed! Just be the highest bidder, send the check to charity and Priddy & Co. will do the rest. Oh yeah, tell her you're a Jalopnik reader and she might even throw in one of her famous purple pens (it's our most treasured possession). Full details from Brenda below the jump: More » -

The Hunks Of SEMA?
(Follow us as we lift the hood on the world of industrial automotive espionage in From The Car Spy's Dossier, a semi-regular series of road reports from A-list spy shooter Brenda Priddy and some of the world's greatest car spies!) So I thought it would be a good idea. All the bloggers go crazy with the "Girls of SEMA" layouts and various nearly-obscene versions playing on the words and zooming in on the pictures. So for all the Laura Bursteins in the world (and me, too, of course), I thought we'd get equal time - and I'd do a "Men of SEMA" photo spread (arrgh ....some people have such a dirty mind!)

Car Spy Photographer Brenda Priddy Auctions Off Jaguar XF Prototype Duct Tape For Charity
A-list car spy photographer (and sometimes Jalopnik contributor) Brenda Priddy's always one to use her unique "star-like" status in the industry to make some dough for those less fortunate. Just as an example, last year she put herself in "jail" to look for some straight-to-charity bail money. This year however, she's snagged some littered duct tape and a sticky wad of camouflage from the not-yet-out 2009 Jaguar XF and she's auctioning it off along with a 12" x 18" shot of the Jaguar XF signed by none other than the spy mistress herself. So hop on over to eBay and snag yourself some super-secret sticky stuff and a pic of the Jaguar XF — it's for a good cause. [eBay]

Auto Engineers Really Like The Long Camera Lens Of A Spy Photographer...Or Maybe It's Just Me
("Follow us as we lift the hood on the world of industrial automotive espionage in From The Car Spy's Dossier, a series of road reports from A-list spy shooter Brenda Priddy and some of the world's greatest car spies!) It's been just 4 weeks since the hot weather test season officially started and I've put well over 7500 miles on my car, two oil changes and even logged a few thousand air miles. And no matter where I go, it seems that I trip over other spies trying to photograph the same cars. So while I honestly tell people only one out of every ten sets of spy photos actually sell, the odds of a successful sale are even lower this time of year.

When There's No Snow, Vail is Nothing But Kobe Bryant and Hybrids
("Follow us as we lift the hood on the world of industrial automotive espionage in From The Car Spy's Dossier, a series of road reports from A-list spy shooter Brenda Priddy and some of the world's greatest car spies!)I barely had a chance to unpack at my motel right across from BMW's so-called "top secret" hot weather test garage last week before Toyota called and invited me to Colorado for a few days to drive their new Highlander Hybrid. I used to think that an invitation from a auto company was nothing more than a ploy to get me out of town, and out of the action of wherever I may be at the moment, so that they could proceed to test their upcoming vehicles without worry about which cactus or maple I'd pop out from behind. But a couple of days in Vail...err...I mean a chance to drive a pre-production Highlander Hybrid was too good to pass up.

Cars, Spies and Brothels!
(A-list spy shooter Brenda Priddy lifts the lid on the world of industrial espionage, with road reports from the world's greatest car spies! In this, the first installment, Priddy airs some dirty laundry...) My twentysomething daughter and I arrived at our home away from home at 10:30 pm on a very hot July evening (about four hours after we passed Holy Moses, Wash) and rang the little silver bell for the desk clerk, Norman. It was obvious we woke him, but fortunately for us, he threw on some (mismatched) clothes before he came to the office to hand us our keys. "Office" is a lose term in this case - it was simply a three-by-four-foot (and I'm being generous here) waiting area with a few dusty magazines on a homemade shelf, and a map tacked on the wall dating back to the Johnson administration.
