Rat Rides With a Difference
These old rat rides are known as råttsoffor, (rat couches), or pilsnerbilar (beer rides), in Swedish. They are very popular with the younger raggare, (greasers), and with photographers. There's always a few contests at this meet. One category is for best Rat Ride. These were some of my favorites in that category.
There is a bit of ramrod culture here but nothing like you have over there!
ReplyDeleteThey look like they've passed their best before date.
ReplyDeleteThose cars look like they're ready for retirement.
ReplyDeleteWow. Looks like the cars came directly from the junk yard.
ReplyDeleteIt wouldn't be so bad if I didn't remember when each one of these car models came out.
