Thanks Olli!
I'm working hard on getting my health back, exercising three hours every day and feeling better.
It has not been possible with as many car events as usual since the power has completely been missing.
Fridberg says he is busy in his shop as usual....
Photos coming soon

Thanks Guys!

Here are pics from our local show in Malung earlier this summer.
Hot weather and many interesting cars. Plenty of B & E bodys and Forwardlooks of course.

Enjoy!

Hello Guys!
Time flies!
Health is improving and I am making progress.
Here are some fresh pictures from my cellphone.
At Fridbergs, it is full action as usual, the latest car is a 300C conv which will be fully restored.

Warm wishes for 2019 and a sparkling happy new Forward Look year to you all!

 

From our car clubs garage! My F100 needs some service.

Fireflite in sunset, took it for a ride a cold, cold day before everything got white!

My 68 feels like a new car!

In friend Sören Burmans garage!

Clean as usual!

Friend Bengt Busks ride!

Gets new life!

My hometown Malung is probably the village that has most forwardlook convertibles in the world! If we count all projects...

Lincoln service!

This one came from Malefors yesterday! Friend Sven is the lucky owner!

This sweetness came on the same truck, nice couple!

The latest 300! The pictures can speak for themselves... Enjoy!

Fridberg and I did a little road trip and our first stop was at good friend Carlo Notaros shop.
Carlo is a great guy who know everything worth to know about forwardlook cars and parts.
Here are some pictures from my cellphone.

Yes. I fully agree Carlo is a really nice & helpful guy. He always helped me when I stuck in a dead end road.

The 57 NY conv owned by Bertram, right ?

Not far from Carlo are the KP brothers' shop www.kpusabil.se.We took the opportunity to make a visit.
As you can see, they have several interesting cars!

I sold a car to the KP brothers years ago!  Thank you for showing images of their shop - a candy land for car guys!

 

When I initially saw this thread, I didn't pay much attention because I thought it was a really long discussion about looking for a white 300 F from Texas.  

This is one of my very favorite threads on the forums.  I look forward to every new post!

 

Cheers,

Mike

Thanks Mike!
This thread came to develop into something more, but we are still looking for ownership history on the white 300 F.

Next stop on our roadtrip where at our professional upholstery man, Isaksson.
He´s specializing in classic car interiors, lot of experience and workmanship there!

Nathan yes they will ship and communicate well . Ive got them lined up to make me every single inside piece for a 58 Fireflite Coupe when i can finalise the deal with a guy on a car i have bought .
, they were even going to get onto one of the local swedish guys to take measurements for the seats for me as they have enough 58 Firelfites in sweden to do that !
The will supply the material from SMS instead of you haveing to get it , or you can supply if you like , they will get the lines in door panels and seat covers HF welded along with the Hernando head embossings HF welded in for you .
They make the door panels , kick panels , rear seat upper embossed panels , Headliners , carpet sets cut and sewn much better than the ACC ebay ones, trunk boards etc... So they are the place to go to .

Took a drive in the beautiful spring weather the other day. 

Still some snow here but the DeSoto is fun to drive and works just fine in winter conditons.

The blue sky with white snow and blue DeSoto with white sweep is a combination that fits perfectly together.

One picture in the group taken 3-12-19 shows a painted frame with long, red, rear shock absorbers. I've been looking for longer shocks for my '56 Plymouth than I can find in the KYB or Monroe catalogs. Anyone know who makes the ones in the photo?
