The 10th annual Jokers Car & Bike Show

The 10th annual Jokers Car & Bike Show in Tidaholmsparken in Tidaholm this weekend must have been a success. It was great to be there, even if it in my case was for the Friday only, due to other commitments (bad planning). Anyhow, I got a nice ride for 250 miles on my Knuckle ´45 in sunshine.

A very nice mixture of motorcycle and car styles from the late 40's up to early 60's, show up with their Enthusiasts. It was fantastic to meet all friends and be together with this entire people who keep the tradition rolling on….Even so the show has been promoted as the last Jokers Car & Bike Show, I do hope the “JoKerS MoToRfaMiLy” will be back with something else in future….!  http://jokerscarclub.blogspot.se/

“New” Mercury in town…..

This very nice ´56 Mercury Montclair Phaeton arrived for some weeks here in my hometown. A friend of mine has imported this survivor from sunny California. Phaetons were Mercury´s top of the line four-door hardtops. This one is solid black, most was two tones back in that time. The car has its original Y-block, 312 CID V8 engine, although it did not have many miles on it.

The other week I have the pleasure to be there when my buddy CK opens the just arrived container from US, with his “new” FLH Panhead. This very nice bike from 1959 rolls out for the first time on the Swedish ground…!

Elmia Custom Motor Show 2013

The theme for this year was “Hot Rod and Custom” in Elmia Custom Motor Show. In the show, it was possible to hanging around a great mixture of MC, Classics, Customs and Old-timers…..and some Babes as well. Everything from a real monster called “Il Drago Ruggente”, under hood a V12 engine from a Caproni-bomber back in 1940, with a cylinder volume of 27 liters (1650 CID) with an output of 750 HP….. to the famous Metallica Rocker James Hatfield’s amazing Lincoln Zephyr -37, created by Rick Dore.
