Hi!
My name is Stein and I come from Norway.

I am mostly into modifying and rebuilding old Vespa scooters, but find a lot of the older american cars so cool that I should really get myself a proper four wheeled vehicle too! Have no experience with old american cars, but have been working on other vehicles most of my 35 year old life.

Am seeking a mildly rodded 39 Plymouth Business Coupe. If anyone know of any, please feel free to PM me!

If any of you guys find the Vespa scooters cool too, maybe you even have one youŽd like to restore and need some tips and info, please feel free to contact me.

Hello Stein, it is always nice to see new Norwegians coming aboard!
I must admit I share your passion for Plymouth Business Coupes, altough my favourite is the 1941 model.

Where in Norway do you live?

My Dad was from Oslo. He used to tell me Harley Davidson motorcycles were popular in Norway before the War. And also used by the Police. If you could find one of them to trade I'm sure a Plymouth coupe would turn up over here as well.

Hi Superfleye!
I live in the capital, Oslo.

And hi to you too Bib Overalls!
Aha, so you are half norwegian, thats nice :) A friend of mine have one of those police Harleys, but his is from the 70´s. Still very cool, and it even still has all the proper gadgets that they used to have. He´s been working on a full restoration on and off for 15 years (!), three years ago he finally had it up and running again. But, he is a busy man, so I don´t think it is used very often.... Anyway, they are rare, so they don´t come up for sale very often. But, I will keep it in mind, and post it here if I ever find one!
