Hi and welcome hezzel.
I was going to ask if you did visit Wheels nats today. But I did check your profile and saw that you`re from Kiruna. May be a little far from Stockholm.
Great Chally you got there.
Good luck with the resto. Be sure to keep us updated with the progress. :2thumbs:

Correction: The car was bought in Long Island, New York . And i have found fuel tickets from Dix Hills in Long Island.

Have had some hopes to find the original owner to see if he or she have some pictures of it when it was new...
