    Another thread about one of the best car shows in the world, well organized as usual and I want to thank all people that made this show possible. As I didn't want to mess upp the other thread so here's a new one with my pics...

    All the pics could be seen here, make sure you press fullsize when you watch them for best quality!

    The Swedish summer showed it's best side this weekend.

    A Caddy with a great stance, grey primer is a nice color too.

    In Sweden we call it 'snickarglädje', straight translated it meens carpenters joy.:rolleyes: It's when you could tell that the builder had a good time building, sort of. This car had a lot of this.

    Dashboard fantasies...:confused:

    Time to have something to eat, turned out that it wasn't the best place to keep the matches, we were pretty close to losing our eyebrows...
    [​IMG]

    Later on when the bands began to play on stage the rest of the area got a little empty, good for me then. I love this pickup...
    [​IMG]

    This one was also great.

    There were also some great bikes at the show as usual!
    [​IMG]

    Well, the 'battlefield' is close to empty, time to go to bed.
    [​IMG]

    Bikes again then. Some of the guys from Jokers are now riding bikes, great bikes that matches the cars.

    Steve brought his first hotrod that he has been working on this spring. It's powered by a Chevy straight six to keep costs down, it works great besides he had some heating issues. Time to go to the 'Devils peak' for the hillclimb then.

    Almost time to let the drivers out from the pit. Speed division makes sure that everything goes according to plan, love the outfit.
    [​IMG]

    The pacecar went first with the rest of the gang close behind, just to make sure everybody knows their way up the hill.
    [​IMG]

    And they're away!

    This guy knew how to drive a bike, lovely style!
    [​IMG]

    The crowd!

    Two other favourites...

    Back on the camp and car area. This was an awsome sight to see, and even better meeting it on the road.
    [​IMG]

    It got dark again...
    [​IMG]

    But people never gave up working on their (or others) rides.

    Thank you A-Bombers for a wonderful weekend!:cool:

    Wow, thank you all for the great response on the pics!:)
    How about a few more then if someone missed the link in the first post.:D

    The tattooartists had many customers this weekend, there were 3 guys I think that did their magic all day and almost all night aswell.
    [​IMG]

    I love the seats in this car, always great with a sponsor on parts...
    [​IMG]

    Looks like this guy had a 'hot' car, perhaps a little to hot.
    [​IMG]

    Friday night was a little colder then saturday, the amount of dew was huge to, many guys slept behind their cars as usual, chilly...
    [​IMG]

    There were five or six bands performing on stage on these two days, I have no idea which band this was, but they did a great show!
    [​IMG]

    I love this one, great modifications on it and I think it looks stunning.
    If anyone have got an idea on where to get these taillights or have a set to sell, please contact me because my friend would like som for his 55 Customline.
    [​IMG]

    The Wizzzard in action doing his magic on a Hudson.
    [​IMG]

    Another guy who really know how to use the paint is 'Von Sven', I love seeing these guys work, amazing skills!
    [​IMG]

    A good start for a nice camper or something to use for next year. ;-)
    [​IMG]

    The 'huff puff' parked out in the field.
    [​IMG]

    A lot of metalshaping on this ride, a lot of fine details on this one.
    [​IMG]

    The towtruck was great.

    Yummie!

    I always look forward to the OSW pics. Something about this show just makes it awesome! It's almost like a time warp. The SoCal scene can be little stupid and seeing how you guys take Hot Rods Customs and music into a weekend show is perfect. Thanks for sharing.

    I just have to attend one of these meets some day. I think you guys have a better idea, camping, drinking, rocks flying and no Foose-mobiles. Gary
