I just bought this on tradera.se (swedish e-bay). It's a show program from one of Sweden's first Hot Rod shows that was held in 1965. It cost me 63 swedish kronor (about $10), talk about well spent money... Thought that you guy's would appreciate it, so I scanned the whole thing for ya. Kinda cool, huh? Just let me know if you want any translations.
That is awsome. I love the tail light treatment on that 56 chevy and that 32 roadster with the white top is spot on.
I love the purple passion! One bad as T! Pretty funny that you posted this today. I was looking in the same program guide few minutes before logging on hamb. My dad got it new from the show back then. /Eric.
Love it! There is a rumor that matti is building a new Edchero! But i dont know if it just words or if is for real!
In my collection I have a lot of photos from the early shows... Though as I'm a "magazine guy" I cant't publish them on Internet. However, here is a sample that I've previously shown in Gasoline. Purple Passion!
The original "Edsel Ranchero" is still around, though in bad shape (the car was built from a cut down 57 Ford Ambulance). Matti have a project to clone it.
