    Anyone on the HAMB from Copenhaven? I saw 5 or so cars Monday night downtown. I was unable to stop and look but I saw a roadster, a Model T and a few others parked near Forum. I'm here for a several more days and would love to see some rides.

    There were more than a few day trips to Denmark- Legoland was AWESOME!!!

    Euro nats from today trough sunday at Mantorp Park.
    I got a telephone earlier today, as some friends of mine are racing in
    a vintage drag cl***. Lagest field of front engine dragsters ever in europe,
    and the sun was finally shining:):):)!

    I live about 10 minutes from Forum in Copenhagen.
    I got a 1933 Chevrolet Master, which is turned into a pickup. Tho its not a "traditional hotrod" its pretty fun.

    It legal in denmark, and atm I'm the only one that have a ride like mine as far as I know.
    Its a ratrod, with a B20, Volvo engine, volvo ch***i, and a bunch of other stuff.
    Write a pm if you want to know more;)

    Hi Chad,

    I am a 15 minute drive from Forum, Copenhagen.

    We are leaving for a German event this weekend, but if you are still here next week (monday, tuesday?) I'd be glad to meet up.
    It would probably be hard to stir something up, being in the middle of most peoples vacations, but we could take a ride to our garage some 30 minutes outside Copenhagen.
    We do have a couple of Deuces, 49 Cad, 49 shoebox.

    Just let me know....... or give me a call - just dial 20 96 44 69 (from a danish phone) or send a text/PM.

    Best regards,

    Thomas
     
  7. Thomas, going to the Teterow track? Glad to hear that. It's gonna be fun.

    Thanks for the great response. Truth be told, I am in in Copenhaven working for a certain heavy metal band that has a Danish drummer playing five nights total at Forum. Seems like I am missing a lot of cars on account of the Euro NATS you all are talking about. Wish I could go. We have to jet off to Finland this weekend but might have time to hang on Sunday night. Otherwise, I am stuck at the gig working Monday and Tuesday. Seems like GEARHEAD_DK might be my hookup for a quick ride in old iron. Whaddya think? Gearhead-DK PM me if you cats might be around Sunday night. Otherwise, have good holidays.
    Thanks All,
    Chad

    Hi Chad

    Thomas' (Gearhead-DK) girlfriend here!

    One of my collegues went to the concert in Forum last night. She said it was great... and now I checked out the tour dates and the jetting off to Finland makes sense now.
    I hope you and Thomas can work something out for Sunday night and we can meet up at his garage. I'll dig out my p/u truck for it..
     
  12. Thomas the track is about 75 years old, but it's first time that they let cars race the gr*** track. Big honor for the hot rod crowd.

  15. My 1939 Mercury coupe was imported from Denmark in the early 90's and was probably
    sold new in Denmark, not that i want to make you Danish guys (and girls) jealous.

    Morten is in Viborg, some 200 miles from Copenhagen. He is the coolest hot rodder you'll find and a great guy to boot.

    We allways try to be as open and friendly as the people we have met on our trips through the US

    So, after being out of the US and away from home for nearly four weeks, I was jonesin' for some hot rods. The Copenhagen Crew really came through. GEARHEAD-DK and Mette picked me up at my hotel on Sunday evening on their way back from Rust-N-Dust in Germany. We drove out of city through the Danish countryside in the '49 Caddy to pick up Mette's F1, then over to Thomas' garage to check out his '32. Everyone was super nice and I had a blast. Thank you all very much.

    Chad, glad we could help you out with a breath of fresh air and a break from hotels and cab rides. I enjoyed the story swaping!

    I got a few shots from the garage too. Unfortunately I was too slow to catch you crawlin' around on the floor under the tudor. ;)
