Rednecks !

As you can see, Northern Europe can be compared to Southern USA. Only one word for it : Rednecks !
No, kidding aside, I found this picture on a Swedish forum. This nice 51 with "Reumakleppen" was put in the boneyard around '67, and 30 years later the current owner had to fix the paperwork as this was considered as junk and all identification was lost when he bought it. Imagine that, this is how the car looked when he put it on the trailer to bring it home after 3 decades in some barn.

By now it has a new engine and a respray and has several nice accesories, like the "Gangsterkepsen", some sort of Albert mirror look-a-like, and a very nice spotlight you can point from inside the car. And although this car was found in '97, I can assure you that even today finds like this surface from time to time in Sverige.
