    Yes. We took precautions, staying 7 feet apart. At least before midnight :rolleyes:
    Here`s a Youtube link to a 7 minute clip i made from this years Flat Out Blast. Not too many people there this year but we had a great time:

  2. I have said it before but it bears repeating, Scandinavian's know how to build traditional hot rod's. HRP
     
  3. Looks like a fun event. Nice rides. Thanks for the video.

    Can always tell a flathead starter, great start for the video. I'm always amazed at the traditional cars overseas. There seem to be more of them in other countries than there are here or maybe they just get together more.

  8. That was excellent. Can't imagine the additional challenges of building a traditional American Hot Rod across the pond. Thanks for the video.

    I find it interesting that most of them are a lot younger than us, which for Hot Rod longevity is great.

  14. Over the top. You guy’s are so nice inspirational. Great people & stunning cars. Great film. Great event. I bet there was even a KiWi-L100 there somewhere as many as I have shipped to that part of the world. Keep showing us how you hot rod in your beautiful part of the world.
    Cheers

    For years it really un hinged me when I seen Americana Hot Rods & parts being sold and sent overseas. Not anymore! You guy's will maybe be the new torch carrier's for the hobby in the future as I don't see enough young Americans interested to carry on...………………...

    No, not illegal but in Sweden its not mandatory with fenders. New rules for older cars that was implimented a couple of years ago. Unfortunatly not yet in Norway where Im from but hopefully, it will come here too.
