Cars & Girls

That is the name I gave to the flickr set with photos from the 2015 Grand Prix Raggarbil. The raggare subculture is very unique to Sweden, but you can find them in Norway and Finland as well. They do love parts of the American culture from the 50s to the 70s as I have told you many times before, and I leave you with this Chevrolet Corvette and a slideshow with all my photos from this years event.

The Redhead

Look, I found a girl with red hair at the big meet at Vegabaren. Very nice rack, I mean earrings and ink. And she is clearly a music lover. My kind of girl.

The Dudes

I want just aiming my camera at the babes or the cars at th e Grand prix Raggarbil event. Here are a few of the "Raggare" as well.

Can I take your photo?

Every year there's a few fun contests at the Grand Prix Raggarbil event. One of them being best looking greaser girl. Carro didn't partake, but if she had I'm pretty sure she could have won the whole thing as she was the prettiest girl I saw there all day.

Liisa

I spotted my flickr friend Benke at the big meet over the weekend. He was busy photographing this girl so I moved in to get a few shots myself. Her name was Liisa. She had a few interesting tattoos that Benke really need to shoot. The tattoos on her leg are a few lines from a song. One Night in Bangkok. She also had a tattoo of her mother on her arm. In case you are wondering, I am going to use the second photo in my Summer project Breaking The Rules.

Hood Ornaments

I have enough photos to continue all year with snaps from this event. Just saying. Here are to hood ornaments that stood out a bit.

A Pose

It was too warm to chat up everyone that I photographed at the Grand Prix Raggarbil so I just asked if I could take a few snaps. This was the first portrait of the day.

Dodge Coronet

I spent nearly five hours at the big car meet at Vegabaren in Handen today. Grand prix Raggarbil 2015 is the official name. It's a very popular event that attracts "raggare" from all over Sweden. I have told you about that very Swedish subculture before. It involves a lot of Americana from the 1950 to the 1970s. Classic cars. Muscle cars. Elvis, rockabilly, greaser girls, alcohol, and much more. I have a few hundred photos to go through now and here are few to get us started. A Dodge Coronet from 1957.
