I visited the big car meet at Sundby Gård on Saturday. They have a weekly meet every Wednesday during the Summer month and they counted 544 cars at one of those meets. This meet was the season finale and the second annual Classic Cars and Customs as it is called. I arrived with my buddy Bengt, (he is the guy in the fourth photo), in the early afternoon. As we approached we noticed many cars leaving and we asked why only to be told that the park was filled to capacity! So we parked outside and walked in. It is Mid-September but it was a as hot as on a very warm Swedish Summer day and when we left after three hours i was really feeling the heat. More photos from this event in the coming days.
Hood ornaments are fun to shoot. Here are a few that I photographed at the Classic Cars & Customs show. The Spirit of Ecstasy is probably the more expensive, but I like the other face more. Shot one with the silent zoom lens and the other with the pancake lens.
This is Miss Marla Kay. She is the real deal when it comes to pin-up girls, just look at that dress. She is part of a group called Swedish Top Pinups. They describe themselves as a group of lady bombshells based in Sweden. I will not disagree. I met Miss Marla Kay at the Classic cars & Customs event.
A Canadian Monarch Lucerne from 1954. Spotted at the Classic Cars & Customs show at Sundby gård. This is the only one in Sweden. Only 252 cars of this particular model was ever produced. The owner is the guy with the white mustache, he told my buddy Bengt that he would never ever sell the car.
There was a pin-up contest at the big Classic Cars & Customs show at Sundby gård. This is one of my favorite pin-up girls at the event. Carin Oxanna Backlund. She was very photogenic.
I visited the big Classic Cars & Customs at Sundby gård recently. The place was filled with cool cars and more. This is the latest project by Sven Sandberg from Tyresö. He has been designing Hot Rods and what have you for something like fifty years. This is called Fiat "Fat Dream" 1949 Topolino.
