ACSN Spring Meet at  Ekeberg Camping.

May 2nd 1999

Per's flashy, awesome 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2dht. And you thought airplanes accellerated quickly...
Harry's fancy 1959 DeSoto Firedome Sportsman 2dht. Wings in abundance.
Jæren ACC West Coast Nationals, Hellvik.

May 21st-23rd 1999

AMCAR's impressive trailer. Chevrolet C/K-Series Pick-up with a 454cid BigBlock is quite sufficient for hauling the rig to all the meetings. 

 

It's great profiling, but probably not very fun to back up.

May 17th 1999

Tord's 1981 Chevrolet Caprice Classic wgn. all dressed up for the celebration of Norway's national day on May 17th.
AMCAR Bilens Dag ("Day of the automobile"), Hellerudsletta.

August 22nd 1999

Jarl's recently purchased 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2dht. Kinda Tweedy-yellowish...
Per's 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2dht in all of its glory. And, yes, that engine bay is just as advanced as it appears to be.
Rune's 1965 Chevrolet Impala SS Convertible. Brutal car, and the impression isn't exactly dampened by the bright yellow paint combined with black striping.
Ole's 1971 Oldsmobile 442 
American muscle at it's best under the hood of the 442.
Frederik drives a 1978 Mercury Cougar XR7 year round, and the car has survived Norwegian road salt thanks to impeccable maintenance.
A quite flawless fullsizer, Helge's 1982 Buick LeSabre Limited sedan.
Houston, TX. That's the explanation for that spotless body.
AMCAR has quite a collection of nice wheels in their garage. This deep blue 1992 Buick Roadmaster Estate Wagon with "Light Colonial Oak woodgrain appliqué" and awesome wheels can make the heart jump for those of us who love later model GM fullsizers. (Photo from 1998)
Some think it's graceful, others think it looks like a whale or a piece of soap. Either way, it's got personality..
Large, bigger, hugest. No reason to downsize the cargo space found in the previous GM B-body wagons.

The Motor Center

September 23rd 1999

Morten's 1996 Dodge RAM 2500 SLT Lariat TurboDiesel
A brutal front and wheelarches that you could camp inside.

A wide ass was the recipe for winning the hearts of funeral agents.

Weekend trip to Liodden Camping

September 3rd-5th 1999

Kate&Rolf, Elin&Peer, Tord, Jarl and Arthur has settled in at the annual WSC trip for 1999. More info on Liodden Camping is available at http://www.camping.no/beskrivelse/liodden_camp.html
Arthur's 1957 Buick Series 40 Special 4d sedan. Original and very charming!

Per's 1957 Cadillac Fleetwood. No lack of style or leg room in Cadillacs stretched swan from '57.
Per's 1957 Cadillac Fleetwood. In 1957, this must have been the ultimate symbol of power.

Per's 1957 Cadillac Fleetwood crossing the old suspension bridge at Liodden after visiting the Vassfaret Bear Park.
At the Vassfaret Bear Park in Flå, the bears had grown pretty large since last year. They still looked cute and cuddly, though. More info available at http://www.vassfaret-bjornepark.no/english/index.html 
Waffle-time at the Vassfaret Bear Park. 
Modified oil barrels make large scale BBQing possible. You'd better calculate with lots of meat on a WSC weekend trip. Elin and Arthur have put on just enough to satisfy their own hunger. In the background, the new concrete causeway replacing the old suspension bridge is being built.
Party-tents come in handy as late summer nights begin dropping dew on everything. The three persons most clearly seen in this picture are Marius, Rolf and Lars Erik.
